Exclamation Ad-blocking Script

Get rid of the new adblocking script as to it is quite stupid. The ad blocker i use comes with ZAPro which offers options to completely block the add, place the word "Ad" where it is with the original link, or mouse over and the ad appears.

I personaly use the mouse over option to support site, such as this one. This is just a pain the ass to turn it off whenever I want to come to this site (at least 5 times a day) and then turn it back on.

tough. shit.


ever thought of the reason we run the anti-adblocker? answer: because people run adblockers!

if you want to write a check to us compensating the loss, then we'll allow you to block the ads.. until then...

I have a legitmate reason for not liking the script. I use mozilla for my brower, and it does not work with mozilla. This incompatability should not be tolerated. I even screwed with the useragent and all my javascript and cookie settings, but it still had an error stating I needed to enable cookies. This disappoints me and I hope it gets fixed.

:: tell mozilla to identify differently and it'll work fine.

So if you donate you can get no add version? Hmm, interesting, it just might be worth it :/

no if you donate money to the site, x69 will block the ads for your username that you tell him.

Heres a screenshot of mozilla that works fine.. you obviously played around with your mozilla settings.. b/c i installed this a few days ago and havent touched any of the settings and it works fine..

He bought it at our local mall so the whole fiasco wound up on the news, it was embarrassing for my relatives and all, but the next week he did it again, different cat, same results, complete with another trip to the emergency room! So I run into him a week later in the mall and he’s buying another cat and I says to ‘em "Jesus Walt, what are you doing? You know your just gonna get this cat stuck up your ass too, why don’t you knock it off?" And he says to me "Brodie, how the hell else am I supposed to get the gerbil out?" My cousin was a weird guy....

nice.....
yourr lucky m not telling how i did it

i shoudlnt have to be forced to view ads, its like saying i have to sit down clamped to the chair during the commercial breaks on tv,what a shame


Posted by X69 on 10-18-2002 11:58 PM:

By blocking the banners your effectivly stealing money out of my pocket. If you cant deal with seeing 2 banners on every page then i dont want you visiting my site.. And as i've told other people who bitched about the ad blocker thing. access my website is a privilage not a right.. so if you want to steal money from me then i'd just assume ban you from the site...

Noone is focing you to come here, if you don't want to look at a couple of banners then don't come here. It saddens me to know a regular such as yourself could be too selfish to view a couple of fucking banners so X69 can afford to pay the bandwith bill.

those adds dont even bother me so im koo


Posted by GaMMa on 10-19-2002 03:08 PM:

Okay, I am not angry because I have to watch the banners now, that's okay!! BUT THAT I HAVE TO ENABLE COOKIES JUST SUCKS!!
Please remove the cookie check!!

I agree that I can watch 2 banners. But I don't want these Ad-People to be able to track me through the whole net!

The Anti-Anti-Ad-Script is buggy by the way. It claimed that I had deactivated cookies, but that wasn't true, I was using WebWasher and cookies were enabled...


Posted by X69 on 10-19-2002 11:15 PM:

uhmm my site dosent work properly if you dont have cookies enabled.. it does FREAKY shit with no cookies.. and btw.. I'm the ad people.. i'm using my own ad software just for vcdq... so i'm not tracking you all over the net heh just when you visit my site.. and the only thing it checks it to know what banners its already shown you so it dosent show you the same banner like 100 times in a row.. heh
