Windows / System 32 / Drivers / ETC / Hosts ( open this with notepad as administrator ) http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt ( Select All ---> control + c ---> go to the already opened Hosts file ---> delete everything and then control + v ---> save ) It doesn't block ads. It merely redirects ads to your own computer. It'll also be in a ETC / Hosts on a mac | ||

I watch a shitton of streams and some of those adds are SUPER annoying. But I still don't block them, and it completely pisses me off that such a large portion of the viewers do. I wish there was a way for sites/streams to block people with addblock. Seems fair. You can only come here or watch this if you support it. | ||

I know MLG does that during the live stream, but that sometimes goes weird even if you allow the MLG website to display ads. As for myself, since TL has no popups and only non-invasive ads (banners are fine), I have whitelisted it on my adblock. | ||

Also, adblock is now disabled. I appreciate the explanation given in the thread. I'd tried to do it before (added an exception for www.teamliquid.net on adblock), but I still got the elephant until I followed the instructions given here. | ||

It is. The NFL operates because people pay money to see it. Their websites operate because they get people more interested in the NFL and they generate revenue through adds. If you disagree with that argument, then you disagree with the argument about eSports, too. It's the same argument. Why you think that analogy would be useful in this discussion is beyond me. | ||
