Alright. Somehow, I had a Peligroso add a few days ago. Yah, the ones that gave everyone cancer and thoughts of suicide. Well now, Im apparently getting ads from "my favorite northwest Florida news station at channel 3" or some bullshit like that. Who the fuck is from Flordia on here, and how is this even an add. Why are ads on here cancerous.

While on the topic, fix your fucking search bar.

Is the problem that you don't like the ads you're seeing or is the problem that the ad is broken?

or is it that the ad is too long and you can't skip?

im actually doing a total re-evaluation of our video advertising strategy. I actually think it has gotten out of control this year.

What would be an acceptable amount of advertising for you to see?

would you pay $2 per month to get rid of video ads?

What's up with these new ads that get through my ad blocker? Yesterday it was fine and now I'm having Spy and Nexen ads everywhere. I understand that a great deal of revenue comes from ads but what changed that allows them to bypass my ad blocker?
