uninvited music played automatically on their site. This always causes an instant browser closing. It's a bug in my tolerance.

Amateur originally meant "doing an activity for love" instead of money, and implied an attempt to be good at it. Today the meaning has often been shifted to lowly, self-serving, and untalented attempts as in "rank amateur".

Wow. These folks fit today's meaning quite well with some of the lamest acting and audio production imaginable as they try and tackle classics like The Importance of Being Earnest and Dracula.

Sheesh.

Talk about uninvited playing - I have contacted V123 about their annoying "infomercials" after you post a reply to a msg from a client.
Their suggestion "turn your sound down".
I HATE uninvited playing. It potentially wakes everyone up in the house.
Its try hard in my opinion.

Voice123 gives you the option to kill those little messages. It looks like it's asking if you want to remove the currently playing one from the rotation but it actually kills them all.

I killed them despite the fact that the last several times they played, I was treated to a couple of bits leading up to Kara Edwards, followed by me.
