    Totally this. I did eventually migrate to Chrome though, but they still have similar addons. VERY handy, especially for those of you who frequent....questionable sites, and are afraid of getting viruses and key loggers.

    Yep, I have posted in the suggestions thread, but until the audio adds problem is solved I am blocking this site. All the other gaming sites I visit do not play them and so are on my exceptions list. I work in mobile development and so am somewhat dependant on these adds for my revenue too, but would not do anything so blatantly mercenary as allowing audio adds that ruin the site (or app) and cause people to blanket block all adds from the site.

    If the audio adds continue it will not be long till everyone IS using Adblock and the problem is solved one way or another.

    It's not that we want the ads there; it's just that the ads people are still trying to get them blocked, as I've mentioned before.

    We hate auto-play ads just as much as everyone else; we want them gone as soon as possible.
