@SBAllen will send you a bill for the ad revenue you stole from him for using adblock.

Please no Mr Allen, it was a hypothetical scenario, well maybe not hypothetical but I left my computer for maybe 30 seconds. And you won't believe this part but get this, my 6 year old cousin is on my computer and installs Adblock on my google chrome, activates it and starts browsing gamefaqs on it!! Crazy huh?

I need a mod's confirmation on this, otherwise I'll never be able to get a goodnight's sleep again. Why should I suffer for my cousin's actions for installing Adblock and FORCING it onto my pc?

He has literally ruined my gamefaqs reputation and sullied my report with Allen.

I would hope not since the mobile site is unusable without them.

Given that Mozilla and other web browser developers allow ad blockers on their add-on sites, it wouldn't make much sense to mod users for admitting to using them.

100% of users who complain that the soul of the site has been "stripped out" don't know what the site's soul is supposed to be.

It wouldn't make much sense for most of the shit the chimpanzee mods do, doesn't mean they don't do it.

I have mozilla ad blocker and I still see ads at the bottom of the threads so its win win because I don't see the intrusive ones, but I still get the more sophisticated ads.

Cool, I didn't think it was mod worthy but I seen users get modded when talking about "piracy" and wanted to know if extended to ad block.

I don't know what happened but mobile ads keep appearing on the bottom of my screen like it's a clash of the titans app

What did it for me is the fucking pop-ups every single time I did anything. Click on my name POP UP. Click on recent activity POP UP. Click on a topic I posted in POP UP. Click on next page POP UP.

I would have probably quit GameFAQs altogether if it wasn't for Adblock. This site is unusable without it.
