Seriously? Auto playing ads?
I get and understand that we are blessed with having this forum to use for free, but really IB? Auto Playing ads at the VERY bottom where you can't pause them?? I'm sorry, but that just seems to be drawing the line, it's bad enough when you come on the site real quick without logging in to quickly look something up that all the ads BOG the internet browser enough to make it crash, how much longer before that happens when we are logged in and this community straight up stops and all the amazing information disappears? I get there are ad blockers, but this website isn't a business, you make no money off of us, so if we all use an ad blocker what's the point?

when and if ABP fails to block, i doubt i'll ever be back. |
The ads combined with the photobucket fiasco makes me wonder how long I'll stick around myself. Most of the good informative threads are all but destroyed from that mess.

I'm gonna make a thread so this is more visible.
As many of you already are aware, photobucket pretty much killed the automotive community car forums by disabling hotlinking. Someone developed an add-on that allows you to see these pictures. chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/d...fegnfnflicjjgj firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...-embedded-fix/ |

I had to verify for myself. It works for me as well.

I’m surprised so many people still browse forums on computers, but any such ad blocker available for mobile devices? Specifically iOS/Safari?

Every time I load it on my phone (granted I don't have adblocker on my phone yet) I keep getting force redirected to spam sites and malwares sites. No thanks, I'll use a PC. Also, it's easier for me to navigate on PC

For those of you using Chrome, I've been using Adblock & AdblockPro and I've never seen an ad on here. :dunno:
|
don't worry, it's only a matter of time before the adblockers don't work and need updates.
