I don't ad-block at all. If I did ad-block TL though that sad elephant would get to me fast.....

Technically I don't adblock. I use some HOSTS file I found on the net to block various domains associated with malware and advertisements.

You'd have to remove googlesyndication.com from the redirects.

Had to remove g.doubleclick.net as well, but yeah, ads are showing again.


Make sure you've got your system properly secured (a good idea in any event); g.doubleclick.net is indeed a domain associated with not only advertisements, but also malware.

Anyone who ad-blocks TL should just gtfo. Seriously, they provide you with an amazing site and you can't endure a tiny little banner at the top of the page? I honestly don't even notice the ads. I just scroll right by it every time I open a page.

i dont really use adblock. And i dont go to websites that add cookies into my browser and make all the ads everywhere dumb dating stuff that i saw some people complain about. But you know what is annoying about the people in this thread justifying not turning it off?

This is what gets me. I really have no opinion on if you block TL or not. It really does not effect me what so ever. But at the end of the day, you have spent more time in this thread justifying yourself than it does to turn off ad block which is completely dumb. Not all but most are dumb - because of the people saying its not worth their time to take the effort to turn it off, like their times is more valuable money wise in the 1min it takes to actually filter TL...

Yet its worth your precious time and effort to make yourself feel better about blocking it. Honestly, if you have no intention of removing adblock, and you cant take a killing esport joke, why take the time to post in this thread to begin with? Let alone multiple times that are paragraphs long. That seems like a real waste of time, but i suppose if it makes you sleep better at night. I guess the high worth of all of your time is worth defending the ad block of a forum... it just doesnt make sense to me. I know people are lazy, just say or even dont say your lazy and move on. Why spend all this time. meh, i guess i just dont get it.

Keep up the good work TL.

Every time i open TL i sit there for a minute with noscript temporarily allowing all pages on TL.

If there was an easier way to do this i'd be a slightly happier person.

edit: and no i'm not permanently allowing all those ad websites.

TL is almost the only site I don't block because the ads aren't that annoying, don't take long time to load and don't slow my computer down.

I dont use adblock, but if i use it one day, it wouldn't be for TL. There is very few adds on TL, so it's OK for me.

Personally I'd rather block ads, especially because of stream ads, and give a "donation" to TL. Why don't you open a Paypal for donors or something?

Honestly, ads bother me to no end. I know it sounds stupid but it's one of my pet peeves.

I don't adblock but there are some ads that I don't think TL should be associated with.

Pretty sure those google ads are targeted towards you based on your search, etc if you are logged into google in any form.

For example, almost all my ads have been about The Economist magazine. Makes sense there.

I forgot to unblock TL on the other computer. Added filter just now.
Now, I somehow have an idea where TL gets (most?) of the money needed for it's players and other costs.
Gogogo! TL FTW!

Unfortunately Science -> Scientology

I know some science bloggers had issues with this.

I'm sure I have it turned off for TL, but.....ehhhhh?

I adblock everything, including TL and the elephant itself.

I do however pay for premium services quite willingly, most recently did so for MLG.

If TL releases a premium stream for TSL4 or some more T-shirts, i'll gladly contribute monetarily. If TL needs help raising money for some project like the Tastosis documentary - i'll chip in.

Wait. What does that say about me!?

Hmm, I get ads about chinese women... but I don't use Chrome for po--photography.
Also, google is telling me to download chrome... when I'm using it right now.
