Adblock makes us sad

[slivy58]

Holdum, you must have one of those REAL SPECIAL browsers don't ya haha. Not sure what differentiates your browser/experience from say, mine, but what ever it is don't let go :wink:

 

[RumoredNow]

Trying uBlock Origin now in Iron. I've also turned Ghostery back on. We shall see.

There's probably some thing different, but I don't know what it is. Maybe my ISP has something to do with it ???? I do use a Ad-Blocker on my IE. I browse with Firefox 98% of the time. I hate Chrome and Edge! I'm sure you all have run malware scans!:wink:

 

[fatclue_98]

I somehow jinxed myself because that worked but then it broke for me. :/

Ugh, same here.

 

[holdum333]

I'm thinking you all have gremlins! I have never had those problems! If I were having them, I would be doing some malware scans. LMAO
Are we having fun yet? LOL

 

[holdum333]

Here's a thought! How about the server?Does that make sense, why maybe I'm not having problems? I'm from Oklahoma!:wink:

Pretty sure malware isn't it and yes, do it from time to time. The thing is we are not talking about one PC here, I've got a whole slew at my disposal and tried them all using multiple browsers prior to running uBlock Origin. Out of the three, Edge has so far been my least favorite, then we move up the scale w/IE and finally my go-to, Firefox.

Not so sure about the server yet that could be a possibility. For me though the question begs, why such behavior on Mobile Nations yet no other, honestly cannot recall one site acting anywhere similar unless it was a naughty site LOL?

I'm talking about WC server. Surely they have several. I never log out. Was just a thought! I'm sure it's a WC problem. Just got to find what's causing these problems.
Nap time. Later!:wink:

uBlock worked great... Until I logged out and now that I've logged back in I have all the same issues with radio buttons and drop downs not doing what they ought.

Hi Friend! Does this not sound like WC server problems. I never log out. How many servers does WC have?? Log out and back in!
It has to be a server problem IMHO!:wink: Where are our big dogs? Are they not watching this thread?

Same here. I never log out at work but at home, I am always logged out. This is not going to make it easy for me at all.

Hi there! I seem to be ignored. How many servers does MC have. If you're not having problems until you log out and log back in, doesn't that tell you something? Do you think MC could have some bad servers??
What am I missing here?:wink: I never log out and I'm not having any problems!:smile:

Funnily enough, the trick worked for me while logged in and then it stopped working while being logged in. :straight:

Sorry, holdum... Not ignoring you. I could not say how many servers they have.

However, the recent reemergence of the "Adblock makes me sad" popover coinciding with the radio button issues would be a very strong corollary.

...I never log out...

Since you never log out... Then the "Adblock sad" popover never grabs ahold of you.

 

[holdum333]

Hi I never log out and I don't use a Ad-blocker, and I don't have any issues. I'm by no means a expert on servers:wink: You will have to ask Hillary about servers! LMAO.
Try not logging out and see what happens! There has to be a connection here on MC. Has it always been a problem or has it just started? If you didn't have any problems and then you had them after logging back in???? I don't know how servers work. I just know they can cause problems; and it's some thing I would think ,could be tested.:smile: Where are our administrators?

I'm finding now that I can't even log in with adblock engaged. While this annoys me greatly I begrudgingly understand why the site is doing it. Chrome doesn't load unsafe scripts and I have flash and auto play disabled so I will give it a go for a few days and see what happens.

 

[anon(9926299)]

holdum333, are you by any chance using Private Browsing Mode on your Firefox? I know in that mode around 90% of annoyances are blocked.

Hi friend! I'm just using Firefox like I use it on any help forum. No I'm not using Private Mode! The problem IMHO is here on the forum with WC servers. Can I prove that? No! Does Huston need to wake up really soon. Yes someone needs to wake up real soon and address this problem. IMHO it is very serious! I'm not using private window! Is this what you're asking?

Interesting isn't it. So many different user experiences being reported. I can only report that in the twenty or so minutes with my adblocker disabled but with flash blocked and autoplay disabled the ads that I am seeing are not in my face or distracting me. Of course it's only early but we shall see. The only issue I have is that my entire post history has been wiped. I've contacted the mods about it so hopefully it will get sorted

Hi friend! There is some thing "big time" going on in MHO! Thanks for your reply! Maybe we should let this rest and hope those in the know are aware of these things, and are working on the problems! I'm sure these issues will be solved very soon!:wink:
