Y'know, NG, maybe you should put up ads that aren't as fucking annoying. Then maybe people won't block them. That'd at least be more productive than putting up fake ads that insult people for using adblock and then beg them to buy stuff out of your store. Not only is that just plain stupid, but you only make me want to KEEP blocking your ads just to spite you now. It's a vicious cycle.

Just goes to show that the NG staff really don't have what's best for NG at heart. S'all about the money.

Also, delicious pancakes.

Yes, because bandwith costs nothing at all! Neither does terabytes of storage for portal submissions!

They wouldn't need terabytes of storage if their blam system actually worked instead of letting all those shit flashes right on in.

It's sort of like a joke, putting up the adblock ads. By the way, ads are what make NG what it is! You think it's free to have a site with a bandwidth this huge? Thousands of flash/audio and soon to be art submissions?

They aren't that bad, you spoiled ad blocker you.

Bullshit. Newgrounds will chose some of the worst ads possible. You don't see freerice ads anymore, why not? because freerice.com does not pay as much as the others.

It's bureaucratic bullshit.

I'd buy a ton of shirts from you guys if they were more than just a single emblem on a cotton shirt. You guys are all professionally artistic, so screen print some shirts that are also professional!

But it's not just a nut, it's a Tall-nut, you can't get past it no matter what, or unless you are flying. But it's stronger than a wal-nut. He does not look very pleased either ;.; Don't anger him I dun wana get beaten on, he has anger isshues and tends to say things to the melon-pults and I end up knocked out after that, not sure why but I smell of watermellon when I wake up.

I don't know what I keep doing but the ads turned into errors so all I see are white blocks, I didn't mean for it to happen, it leasts until I clear cookies.

I don't mind NG's normal ads, I hate the ones with sound, expands, or are strong enough to fuck up compy function.

I think their adblocker fuck things are clever to the point where I might block ads just to read them.


For my next trick, I will need a condom and a volunteer.

Two words combined to make the name of a well known company:

PAYPAL.

PayPal's for whiny pussies who are afraid to trust sites with their credit cards.

Also lol @ adblock. I have Safari so I can deal with the ads.

i bought a t shirt ages ago, ads telling me to buy one will not make me buy one and as such have been added to the block list, ads should be seamless with a page, so in the same colours so they dont stand out and look horrible, that is why i block them. but that goes against what adverts are meant to do so i will just stick with adblock

Using Adblock really is a douchy thing to do. I definitely understand pop-up blocker, but page ads don't really do anything, they're just there. Deal with it.

They're using up system resources on useless bullshit and slugging up my internet experience.

Damn straight, for those who don't have adblock you need to go and download it (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo x/addon/1865) and then thank me about how much faster your internets are. You also avoid those annoying smilies that talk, the "shoot a laptop and win some butt rape" and of course the "HOT SINGLE GIRLS IN YOUR AREA WHO TOTALLY WANT RANDOM INTERNET PEOPLE TO SEE THEM NAKED AND TO BLOW THEIR LOAD THINKING ABOUT THEM". You know the ones I mean.

Response to Newgrounds hates Adblock. 2009-06-08 09:39:45


Annoying? Jesus it's just a fucking ad.

Don't blame NG for their ads just because you feel like a fool when you get a message come up telling you basically that you're a cunt.

No pop ups so stop blocking the ads.

Adblock is the only reason why I use Firefox, it cleans up the pages of clutter and it makes for a better viewing experience that uses less system resources.

It wouldn't be so bad if every ad on here wasn't a flash component.
