[LFAQs-redacted-quote] This. I remember a couple times in the past SBAllen or some other admin suggested it would be super swell if users wouldn't use adblock on GameFAQs, as I guess it would be better for GameFAQs financially. I didn't remove it, but inconsidered it and understood his position. But now with Fandom owning the place and forcing active changes to the site, even as far as closing boards, I have no sympathy for it anymore. Especially with how obstructive Fandom ads get, I'm not dealing with that. --- {]xxxxxxxxx(&)::::;;;;;:::::::::::::::::::::;;;;::::::::::::::::> Memento Mori ... Copied to Clipboard!

Nope. Although I did get Fullscreen ads like that when fandom first took over. I couldn't interact with anything on the page for like 15 seconds because I had to wait for the ad animation to finish... Those ads are what pushed me to finally get an ad blocker on mobile. I took a screenshot of it back in January. The cereal pieces slowly wrapped around the border of the screen and once it finished, the ad would move to the center of the screen. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/7/7/9/AAQgjdAAEj8D.jpg --- PSN - NoxObscuras Z490 | i9-10900K | EVGA 3080 FTW3 Ultra | 32GB DDR4 3600 | 4TB SSD ...

I really wish I could find a good solution for my iPad. I tried Brave and absolutely hated it, especially the sponsored ad browser tabs it opened at least once a day. I dont want to use anything that only works in Safari because for some reason Safari deletes all browsing data when I close it. Firefox mobile logs me out every time the page reloads. All of these made ads the slightly less annoying option, but the amount on here now is really pushing it. --- Drawings of me by CE: https://imgur.com/a/rDSRWz8 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Whats illogical is equating simping to not using an adblocker. If thats the only thing you mean by simping then I reckon its not an appropriate word to use.
