Chrome Adblock / Adblock Plus:
Click the adblock icon at the top right and press "Don't run on pages on this domain".
+ Show Spoiler [Image] +
[image loading]


Firefox Adblock / Adblock Plus:
Click the adblock icon at the top right and press "Disable on teamliquid.net".
If you don't see the adblock icon in your toolbar, you can press Ctrl+Shift+O to bring up adblock options, then go Options / View in toolbar.
+ Show Spoiler [Image] +
[image loading]


Opera: (using the built-in adblock, thanks CrudeClown)
Right-Click on an empty area on the TL-page; "Click Edit Site Preferences"; Select the "Content" tab; Uncheck "Enable content blocking". This will only affect the TL website.

Firefox NoScript:
After the page loads, click the NoScript icon and press "Allow teamliquid.net". Unfortunately NoScript does not provide a way to whitelist a site and have the extension stop filtering that site, so after each new page load, if you see the NoScript icon indicate that scripts have been blocked, click the NoScript icon and press "Allow all this page". Note that the NoScript allow list is global so by unblocking ad network scripts on TL they will also be unblocked for other sites. This is unfortunately the only way the extension works. Also NoScript can still block some ads even when it is completely set to allow all scripts. The only way to allow ads is to remove or disable the plugin.

All Browsers:
If you have privacy / security software or settings that are set to hide or mask the HTTP Referrer header, then some ads may not display.

If this didn't work you might have other things blocking ads such as script blockers, 3rd party programs, non-adblock ad blocking programs, hosts files, broken / old versions of adblock that don't whitelist properly or any number of possible issues.

For some reason some people say they don't have an Adblock icon under Chrome. To manually whitelist TeamLiquid for Adblock, you go to Options -> Extensions -> Adblock Options -> Manually edit your filters, click edit, and insert this line:

@@http://www.teamliquid.net$document

Best to use the icon to do it automatically though, it keeps a small typo from breaking your filter list.

I ended up having to do it this way. Ads only loaded half the time when I used the one click method R1CH has for FF adblock in the OP. I don't have any entries other than my 127.0.0.1 in my hosts file either.

*edit, did not read last sentence -_-*
Does TL get revenue just from showing the ads or from clicks?

We use a mix of ad networks, some pay per click and some pay per impression.

Oki doki, thanks =)

I would love to support TL, but unfortunately I don't know of any other preferential alternative to hosts file adblock; I desire that level of control over what does/doesn't load and display.

I do get ads when I use TL on my phone though (which is quite often), and I'm sure this recent attention to adblocking on TL has caused more than a few people to turn off their adblockers for TL, and for a good cause too. Many thanks to TL for the role they fulfil! Support esports and don't hurt the elephant guys!

Lol that was sneaky. Changed the ad layout and for some reason now my adblock isn't blocking the TL banner and it links to this page now. Hi R1CH I like you

Thanks for showing the method of how to disable adblock for TL, as I do not see that icon at the top right. The other method seemed to worked for me.

You can use ABE in NoScript to whitelist certain scripts only if they come from teamliquid.
I found some examples in this article.

This is what I tried for teamliquid.net:

Site .googlesyndication.com
Accept from .teamliquid.net
Deny


Now most ads show up, even those from doubleclick.net; adserver01 and so on, although these domains are still blocked by NoScript.

Maybe you could look into this and tell us which sites are necessary for ads and which aren't.
Do google-analytics and quantserve have an influence on the ad revenue or are they just for tracking?

I did what you suggested and clicked "Disable on team liquid" and from what i understand the icon should turn green on TL and should no longer block adds.
However for me the icon has turned gray and the Ad's are still blocked. Does anyone else have a similar problem?
Because I would like to disable addblock for one other site aswell
The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

I don't even have adblock, and I still get the Elly banner sometimes... usually when I have multiple tabs open, but sometimes even if I only have 1 tab open. I'm on chrome btw.

This doesn't work for me. Would like more details since this is the exactly the problem I have -- I'd like to enable ads for TL, but if it means enabling them for all of the internet, you can forget it. This seems like a perfect workaround though.
