do they play sounds? And can you give a link where the ad links you to?

different issue, all ads at the bottom of the page have been breaking the mobile layout. without exception all of them. they're just wider than the rest of the page. just bottom ads.

as I say that, the page reloads without a layout breaking ad. I'll start keeping a record.


disregard. this seems to have stopped.

I don't have any ads in particular to share because I am not sure which ad/ads causes the problem, but I often experience egregiously high CPU and memory issues in Adobe Flash Player when viewing TL. This is often followed with Firefox becoming unresponsive due to a script crash. Stopping the script does not solve the issue, it just stays stalled until a new script error pops up. The only way around this is by killing Flash through Task Manager.

Also, sometimes the ads begin playing sounds even when I am in a different tab or doing something on the computer. It just plays in the background.

Really sad to see this happen to TL after how many years I've been here.

I thought Firefox doesnt support adobe flash anymore. You should probably remove that plugin. You'll feel so much better without it anyway.

Firefox does support it, that was only for 2 days in the summer due to Adobe not updating Flash when there were known problems with it.

I tried removing the plug-in, and things did improve, but unfortunately this made some online content unavailable so I had to re-enable it. I don't think forcing people to turn off Adobe at the expense of others sites' content is the answer for this site's ads that overwhelm it and causes scripts to crash, never to be restored.

This right here is an example of an unacceptable ad:

[image loading]

I didn't feel like watching the whole shit just to find out what the fuck started playing in the background with no input on my part but it was on Liquipedia and it was some dude talking about MOBA games.

I mean, FFS, is TL's popularity really increasing still? Are there more people on TL now than there were 3 years, 4 years ago? Why does TL need to get such invasive ads? Are they feeding their players and staff from ad revenue or something?

I can't speak to the quality of ads, but it's public knowledge that cpms are dropping while ad block usage is rising. Bad formula for websites.

You can also set flash to only run when given permission.

Is anyone else getting video ads slipping through the cracks? I am getting them every so often even though I have Flash on "ask to activate", and they cause lag in my browser.

I have this tab open: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/NA_Ladder_Heroes/2016/January

In the middle of a ladder game, there's suddenly *incredibly* loud music(I think it was music) blaring. Chrome helpfully tells me it's the liquipedia tab.

There's a video ad playing: http://i.imgur.com/q71XTBD.png, but I can't tell if that's the cause because the entire tab is acting as if it's bottlenecking. Only reacts to actions ~20 seconds after.

Not sure if this is even the right thread, since it's liquipedia. I pay for TL+ and would rather not adblock liquipedia, but oh my. My ears are still ringing.

I keep having this ad auto-play and blast sound at full-volume into my ears without me even hovering over it...

So I have flash disabled and I'm STILL getting video ads on TL exclusively. They still cause massive browser lag and they're horribly annoying. My streams occasionally crash when I load TL too. I really want to support TL but I'm going to start adblocking soon if they don't get fixed

Those are HTML5 video ads, not sure why they would be running so slow. Maybe some broken scripts?

Something tried to download sugr.swf from vindicosuite to my computer earlier. Looking around the web, it's supposed to be a faulty ad code. I had multiple tabs open and when I checked, they were showing some Afreeca ad.

Ok, I encountered it again while opening multiple tabs so I'm not quite sure what triggered it. It may be this ad, though.

I keep having video ads that are starting to play with audio.

I have adblock at home, and I doubt that will ever change, but on my school computers, it's a tad tedious to download adblock every single time I log in, so I try not to.

However, nowadays, as sad as it is, the only thing that pushes me to download adblock every time I log in is the ads on teamliquid. The ads here are honestly by far the worst of any place I visit on a regular basis, they slow down my browser immensely, start playing audio right away, completely unacceptable imo. I'm shocked its something you guys haven taken more seriously and looked at more closely, the ads sometimes freeze up my browser requiring a restart of the browser, which never happens to me on any other site.

Anyway, if you guys use ads as specified "acceptable ads" in ad block, I'd gladly white-list TL, but in 50% of page loads I get moving pictures in ads, which I simply cannot and will not support.
