    Ads are really clogging MMO-C

    So I use ad-block. Sorry, but I've been given no reason to trust your ads. Too much auto-play, sound, malware, etc slips through regardless of your policies. Lately though, I've had MMO-C hang and freeze on Chrome with, no joke, over a thousand ads being counted by the blocker. If I hit back and then reload, it seems to work.

    As of right now, the blocker is only showing one blocked ad.

    Not sure what's going on, but your website keeps freezing on me. It's not terribly disruptive, but it is annoying.

    It's just MMO-Champion being greedy and blaming us for everything, nothing new.

    I know on my phone if I don't use adblocker this site is pretty much a stand still. Pretty sad. This is the type of site I would usually list to not block since I frequent so much but with how annoying and out of control they are.. right.. back on the blocked list.

    This site on phone is near un-usable on first load, taking anything between 20 to full minute or even more before it starts being responsive to any clicks. It's fucking annoying.

    I don't care if there's 1 ad or 55 ads or whatever processes but when this shit is being kept up why do you think people won't white-list it? I whitelist many sites based on my wish to support them, but on MMO Champ it's not possible because it's like open invitation for a three pronged dildo coated by barbed wire for anus entrance.

    I use Ghostery with Firefox and I have other custom modifications setup, but needless to say, Ghostery takes care of the ads. Doesn't require any white or blacklisting of websites (you can, but don't have to) — clean and simple interface. You can get it for Chrome as well. Makes MMO-Champion and even WoWHead's ads less of a nuisance. I understand that these sites need them to help pay the server costs, but some ads need to GTFO. If I turn off Ghostery, webpages will slowdown drastically and will be flooded by Jake from State Farm.

    You're not blocking 1000 ads. No site could possibly have that many.

    Report bad ads in the sticky in this forum.
