I thought my *******er and Stylish thingy had got rid of it all but now I'm getting loads of "From the web" ads

This place runs clean for me with Adbl0ckerer in Firefox. And I will happily pay the site owner cash if he wants so I don't have to face a clutter of ads that I'll never click on anyways.
On Firefox :-(Quote:

I work in advertising and genrally have no issue with advertising BUT advertising should co-exist with a site in a such a way that it does not lesson/ruin the user experience. The ad placements on this site make it virtually unusable and generally horrific to viewQuote:

Then you will know that cpms have fallen through the floor and people are using other social networks for things that they use to do on here. They go th other places that absolutely don't strip every scrap of data from your profile and flog it to the highest bidder FM has removed all the intrusive adverts, pop ups, sound on video etc., which adverts make it impossible to use? The new mobile version is almost ad free as it is!Quote:

I'll pay your share if you like. As soon as I've finished paying Sir C's tax bill so that he can pay for Monty's childcare.Quote:

Thanks for the offer Ash. but it's not because I don't have the £24. but £24 is a lot of money.Quote:

£24 could be a weeks worth of lunches at £4.80
I am ignoring the annual option.
Which makes the £2 a month here great value! On a more serious note, your post excellently highlights what people will pay for and what they won't. Similar story on printed news/articles compared to those online. It's a funny old world.Quote:

It's already there, so why bother contributing to its overheads - you just can't complain when it closes.Quote:

Do you have the correct mobile version? It sounds like you are looking at the site on the desktop view.Quote:
