    Just went onto wowhead with my adblock on. All the ads still get through and still play sound the second they load. If there was another site I'd use it because fuck them and their ads. Everything takes ages to load there now and if you leave the page open it'll kill your browser.

    Try ublock origin. It kills wowheads adds.

    Adblock+ is cashing in on the shitty paid whitelist.

    there are 2 threads on this, at least.

    I white-listed this site, just for shits and giggles to see how many adds would show up, and I see none....
    I too got adblock because of intrusive adds, but they may have addressed it?
    Using Chrome, Win10 build 15063, and Trend Micro. TM might be blocking the adds... but last I checked, the version I have didn't iwell with Chrome

    I'm wondering if people have ISP's that are injecting adds, or malware, I see literally nothing on this page, 0 adds, loads instantly.

    why would anyone want to disable adblocker to help mmo champion out?
    Upon reexamining the title, are you pro adblocker?

    Holy mother of entitled shits, especially the people that say ''I already provide free content to them by posting here''.

    On topic: I personally also use ad-block because of the intrusiveness of the ads here, but would turn it off if it was only occasional adds without sound and annoying flashiness.

    Im pretty sure the site use google ads. I used to have ads of stuff i browse all the time. Sometimes even with fucking sound blasting at full volume before the page is even done loading. This site is black listed for me period. They had a decade to fix it. I only use the forums, so yeah unless they pay endus and co, they dont need my ad money. Plently other free forums with no ads i can go to.

    Yeah, especially when it's the OUTRAGEOUSLY loud ads on this site, with their sneaky delayed plays, that caused so many of us to go download blockers to begin with. Yeah, sorry not sorry.

    Anyone know a good program that blocks the pop up request to turn off the ad block?

    We need to go deeper! uMatrix is tighter than the Korean border and a bonus must for porn.

    When you actually get rid of the intrusive advertisements, then I will.
    Auto-playing video.

    And no, reporting does not do a damn thing.
    Ads doing the same have been appearing for years, on this site and thousands of others.
    You need to do something to change that, not us.

    For all the criticisms of the curse (now twitch) client, it is now ad-free and performing at least from my experience better than it ever did in its last version even as just an addon client.

    Ads do drag down the performance.
    There is a world of difference in responsiveness between default and with ads turned off.

The day websites keep intrusive ads off their sites is the day that I will turn off adblocker.
    Ya wowhead is a fucking nightmare, I only go there when absolutely necessary. Thankfully that's maybe once every 2 weeks.

    You are def making shit up. Your picture is how i see the site with ublock. As soon as i disable it theres a fat animated banner on top and to the left, why would they ask us to enable ads, if as your picture show, there is no ads. Good try, keep cheerleading.

    Im gonna be an ass and say this "you cant have giveaways outside of US , i cant disable my ublock" have a nice day mmochampz

    This site is the reason I loaded ad-block. It got to the point the adds were degrading my experience to the point I couldn't stand to use the site.

    I laughed when I saw the pop up. Maybe if your site did not simply SLAM us with ads that slow down our browsers.
    READ and be less Ignorant.

    the ads on here are fucking ridiculous with how annoying and varied they are. it's just so many of them it sank my performance on a regular basis.

    I run an ad blocker for my own peace of mind. I don't give two shits what anyone else thinks about it. /shrug
