    You're asking people to turn off their adblocker on a pirate site? Even worse, when you do turn it off, the stupid blocker keeps blocking you.

    This is a really dumb way to annoy people when all you have to do is put a banner at the top of the website saying "We'd appreciate it if you turn of your AdBlock of choice so ZoneGFX can survive. All ads are non-malicious and non-invasive", or something to that end. People would be a lot more receptive to that. Instead, you're just forcing them to throw a few lines of JS into Tapermonkey/Greasemonkey.

    Turn my adblocker off on a pirate site!!!!!

    To quote OzzieMan "Yeah... Nah..."

    I wonder whether the companies who advertise here know what the site does for a living?

    The Black Friday ad goes directly to Amazon - Even with my Adblocker on!

    This lot gives me severe cognitive dissonance !!!!!!

    I'm not seeing any request to turn off adblocker.

    Just got it.
    Now when I log in I've got 3 pop-ups to contend with. The welcome one, the one about the AI thing and now this one.

    I get the adblock popup too every now and then browsing through requests.


    @Hunter
    , how about optional video ads to earn some points per ad watched? Maybe from a separate tab in the member profile.

    As you guys know we dont use ads here. I put ad blocker on so that our link anonymizer script can run.
    If adblocker is turned on anonymizer doesn't work.
