So I am fully aware you guys do not make money off of advertising if we use ad blocker, which I have left turned off solely for you guys. But within the last week or so the auto play ads are driving me crazy. The ad blocker is going back on until you guys get rid of the auto playing ads that randomly come on (happened twice just writing this)

I was using it before but I know sid posted about the site not making money when we use it so I figured I would take it off since this is one of the few websites I enjoy, but now it's becoming annoying.

I'm using bone stock Safari and have ads but no auto play? Glad as I hate those things. Post a screen capture that shows what your getting?

The ones that are super annoying are the ones that redirect you to the App Store when browsing on mobile. Has been happening almost daily for me - 5 seconds after I open a thread, the App Store will pop up and I'll have to switch back over to Safari but whatever ad is doing it also replaces the URL so I have to hit Back and then open the thread again, and usually go through that cycle a few times before it won't redirect. I have no idea what ads do it because I'm never actually able to view the page they are on for more than a couple seconds.

Serious? Or Troll?

He had adblock back in the day... He turned it off to support SVTP but got tired of auto-play ads... Now he's turning it back on...

How could you be confused by this??

This drives me nuts.

I really hope you're not being serious. If you are, please take a break from the internet for the day and go pick up a 2nd or 3rd grade level reading book and brush up on reading comprehension.

Is it from getadblock.com and they ask you to choose how much you pay?

Little icon is a red stop sign with a hand inside it?
