I have adblock disabled completely, get ads on every other website and during streams, but I still see the crying elephant. So I voted I don't know how to. Though at this point I've become accustomed to the elephant's tears and my viewing experience wouldn't be the same without it

I don't see why ads bother people. I don't even notice them.

my adblockplus button disappeared for some reason, it used to be right of the google search bar.

Anyone know how to get it back?

The crying elephant is too cute for me to adblock him.

I paid well over 100$ to GOM and I love esports but I absolutely never click on ads in the first place so it doesn't even matter.

I've got adblock disabled on TL. The ads don't disturb me and they aren't "in your face" ads and don't ruin the experience of browsing TL.

I use Google Chrome at both work and home, and it seems to have a built-in ad blocker which blocks the most annoying ads, but little banners like TL are OK.

Maybe it's only a Pop-up blocker, but in any case, I never felt the urge block them all.

I dont block ads. I just dont care about them. There is so much ads nowadays so I just grew used to it and I just ignore them

I tried adding a filter/removing my adblocker altogether, and I still see the crying elephant...

Teamliquid IS ESPORTS!
If it wasn't for Teamliquid I wouldn't know Esports existed on such a large scale. I would be sitting here playing games instead of watching them. I would never have learned GSL existed, that Nestea was a God, nor, despite having colossi, protoss have it hard in Korea.

I don't block any ads ever. Do those banners seriously bother people enough to use ad blocker? The only bad ads are the ones that pop out when you mouseover them or make noise and I just avoid sites that use such things.

Can I ask why you guys use AdBlock in the first place? i don't even notice ads (maybe I do subliminally), and it helps keep most of the things I do on the internet free.

I don't care what other people do but I don't see the point of running adblock. Pretty much everything I love on the internet is run by ads, I honestly don't mind one bit that ads take 30 seconds of my time or a small portion on the side.

I got no script and it blocks the advertisement because they seem to be connected with googleanalytics, doubleklick, quantserve and all those spy stuff.

I just hate that stasi like spying. For example Iam watching for a laptop and minutes later i have an advertisement for laptops. That is just not right and quiete scary.

This reason i explained is the same why i will never use facebook etc

Btw to combine the ansrwer "no" with "i hate esports" is unlucky, to say the least.

Yes, i adblock Teamliquid and all websites by principle (i hate unsolicited ads). But i would totally support TL, just like i support many sites, if there was a donation system implemented.
