Hushful Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Somebody is gonna be visited by the stork soon. Duck and cover bro and hope it doesn't see you!
Xylord Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 It served me amazon baby item ads for a while. What are you trying to say google!!!! Don't start me on that. I once started to get ads from a lesbian dating agency... No comment.
hellow12327 Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 99% of my internet/computer usage is done on an iPad. And the parts the ad covers include the online user list, which I find important. Plus, when I have the ad-blocker off, I get some strange ads. Even video game ads are reaching the point of being borderline pornography. The last thing I need is for someone to look over my shoulder to see an ad with a scantily clad female warrior (something in almost every RPG game these days). Lolwat? I'm using an iPad 2 to post this right now through chrome on it itch iOS 6... Not even rendering any ads ( I actually didn't know u guys had any lol) Edit: never mind, I see ONE on the very bottom that it extends the page to load lol. Talk about nonobtrusive...
Jorcer Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 He likely isn't using an IPad 2... Also, he doesn't use Chrome.
hellow12327 Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 :O he doesn't use CHROME? For IOS? whaaaaaaat? So sad.... But anyway iPad version shouldn't matter, and I loaded it up on safari just now. No dice.
Jorcer Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 He doesn't use Safari either... I think he said he uses Mercury (which has a built in Adblocker)
GreenWolf13 Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 He likely isn't using an IPad 2... Also, he doesn't use Chrome. You are correct on both counts. I have an iPad 3, and I use Mercury web browser. Here's what the fromt page looks like without adblocker on:
Silent Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 Why don't you just use Tapatalk for the iPad? I do all my browsing on my phone and tapatalk is just amazing
Jorcer Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 Why don't you just use Tapatalk for the iPad? I do all my browsing on my phone and tapatalk is just amazing Because it costs money. We have had this entire conversation somewhere else, haven't we Green?
Cheap Shot Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 what...what exactly is that covering that is important? something something -ne now? What could it say?!?!
NightKev Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 But it's blocking (part of) his avatar! That's the only time he gets to see it right now, you know.
Silent Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 Because it costs money. We have had this entire conversation somewhere else, haven't we Green? P-people... Pay? For apps? You sir have opened my eyes to a whole new world.
okamikk Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 P-people... Pay? For apps? You sir have opened my eyes to a whole new world. it is a horrifying world we live in...
poryy Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 It's because the average person who subscribes to those games is a horny twelve year old who hasn't figured out how to disable the porn filter. Ban ALL of the pornwatchers. Ever.
spartanyanni Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 Ban ALL of the pornwatchers. Ever. Dear god the necro.
poryy Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 Dear god the necro. it was a necro? Whoops. (I had this bookmarked so I didn't see what page it was on)
MrFly Posted December 29, 2012 Author Posted December 29, 2012 Dear god the necro. I was about to post that then I noticed there was a third page. :butt:
Dr_Appleman Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 Adblocker is legal as far as I know which is why I don't use it, well it's that and the fact that I really hadn't thought about using it since opera gives me a tiny window for every pop up and the rest of the ads don't really bother me. There is a ad for a fitness class, maybe the internet is telling me something
NightKev Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 I went for a long time without adblock (I just set Opera to block all pop-ups by default and that took care of the majority of annoying ads) but a certain website just pissed me off by having almost the entire page be animated flash ads (except for the content itself), so I finally installed adblock and whitelisted a couple of sites (such as this one!) that weren't bad.
