This ad was making noises and continuously flashing the border.. I hope TL doesn't turn into one of those ad infested sites. I turn off adblock to support you guys, but not when it start playing sounds and giving me a seizure.

Ah, I haven't gotten any of those yet. Just a bunch of asian dating stuff. Maybe my obsessive pornographic exploits have finally paid off in some respect Don't know why, though.

Don't click to go to the website, just right click the ad and copy the link so you can paste the URL in a text box.

Can you bump it with the url of the ad then? Because if you do then the add can be removed, but if you don't then nothing will change.

i grabbed the url today

http://surveyprizebox.com/content/yt_ca/ytca_wiv.php?cid=MB450.wiv&audio=off

looks fishy, it is most likely changed soon after opening the page, dunno if blocking that url will solve it cause its regional.

Thanks for making this thread, and same with everyone bumping it. This ad surfaced a few weeks ago.... originally popped up on sites where you watch tv/movies etc, then it somehow ended up here. Most annoying ad ever, I still don't adblock but I frequent TL so often I hate the soundclip.

K, I have it sitting open on one of my tabs. How do I grab the url. I tried right clicking, but it didn't bring up any useful options. Do I have to click through to get to it? (I hate clicking on those ads.)

I believe this is the url:

Ad for Dota 2 beta with Valve logo seemed weird. The address leads to site that wants you to subscribe with nick and email + posting it on facebook or something. They are not affiliated with Valve in any way, so it seems kinda fishy.

I am from the US and I have gotten annoying ads before that continually make noises. I dont have the URL and it isnt appearing right now but I have had one that appears on the right banner that wont stop making annoying noises. It isnt the same one that the canadians are getting though.

Thank you for working on this issue , when it pops up again il try and grab its url.

The right banner is 100% adsense which should have zero annoying or audio ads. If you click the little info icon at the top right of the ad you should be able to report it to Google.

I belive the ad below is also unacceptable - it makes teamliquid borderline NSFW (as far as my employer's standards go, at least).

If you don't like the Google dating ads, you should check your ad preferences at http://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/ and make sure dating ads aren't part of your profile.

If it means anything, I'm from Canada and have never gotten those annoying millionth visitor or whatever ads.

I get this ad like 80% of the time for the last probably 4 months at least:

Unless it's flashing or otherwise obnoxiously animated or with sound, those kinds of ads are OK.

If you report an ad please include the "Ad tag" info from the bottom of the page which had the ad on it. This helps us track where it's coming from.

I'm assuming it's caused by the ads, but on a lot of the TL pages right now, the page stops loading for me right where the ad would be (I'm on IE8, not using adblock or anything). Every time that happens for me, the script file for ads is the following:
<script src="http://ads-by.madadsmedia.com/tags/311/205/async/728x90.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

I guess it's safe to assume that ads for goldfarmers are unacceptable at TL?

I've been getting mobile ads on my phone that forces me to press "ok" which would direct me to their website. I have to force close my app to reset it and avoid pressing "ok"

Text says:

The website url is something along freemob or something, I only caught a glimpse.

Check you don't have malware on your phone. The only ad partner we use on the mobile site is Google who definitely shouldn't be allowing shady things like that to go through.

Reposting from my original thread:

Hello, I do not know what kind of sketchy business scheme you guys are trying to pull off here, but tonight I have reached my breaking point. While just browsing my liquibets, I look over to see some woman in sunglasses flaunting her body. Not only that, but I while my eyes drift further down I notice she has a bit of a wedgie. Not an ass wedgie, but a full blown cameltoe. The thing that disgusts me the most is that this "woman" doesn't even care that she is showing off her cameltoe. You can see this smug look on her face and a t-shirt that simply says "meh." Meh? Yeah, ok, who cares if I'm showing off my cameltoe? Meh. Luckily, I am of age in my country, but can you imagine a 12 year old browsing the site and seeing this cameltoe? Teamliquid should have better standards than to show a cameltoe right on the side of their website. All that I'm asking is to please take in to consideration that not everyone is accepting of ads like these, and to please think twice before putting this up there. The picture in question:

Yeah, and you can also clearly see the outline of her BREASTS. Pictures of women are not appropriate, seriously. We should sue the company that put this ad up.

Your thread was answered by a site admin. Those ads were aimed at you specifically because of your AdChoices preferences. It is possible to remove them on your end but TL should not be policing them for you. If a child is going to sites where it is possible to encounter these types of ads, I would hope that there is some sort of parental consent or supervision.

That's not actually entirely correct on either account. If you use this site you will get ads for dating young women, quite often of Asian descent because TeamLiquid is primarily used by young men and there's a lot of korean discussion on the site for obvious reasons. As a straight woman who is the only person with access to this PC I can say I get the same sort of adverts from time to time because of how much time I spend on this site, and I'm certainly not looking to hook up with young asian women.

It is also irrelevant if a child may reach sites such as TeamLiquid that might contain such adverts. This website is intended to be SFW and the tools exist to report inapropriate adverts and so should be. I know many of us would likely have no choice but to adblock the site if there were continually nothing but porn adverts and thus TL does police them (I also assume sponsers would like to keep it that way too). Blaming the user is absolutely the wrong thing to do.

Edit: To add, I don't know they they *have* to police them, but it is decent that they do and keeps the site more enjoyable.

Google sucks or I'd report it to them (page has moved and then the report ad just doesn't work) but the above is a D3 gold selling site that I've started getting.

I've also gotten some D3 gold selling sites, didn't know they were against TL policy though. I haven't gotten any ads with sound or flashy seizure-inducing animations fwiw.

Edit: got one right now: MAD_US for D3 gold selling

Is there anything that can be done?

This is the reason I started ad-blocking TL. Sorry, I love this site and community, but the roll over add is way too much for me to deal with (I have ad-block and noscript on pretty much every site I visit so I can't 'handle' something as awful as this).

That's a political party I think. Probably not a frontrunner but it's legit.

I just got a very annoying ad that creates a pop-up overlay in the center of the screen that scrolls with your screen (straight over the topics/replies) and you HAVE to click a close button in the right top to get rid of it. As soon as you hover over the ad it instantly (and repeatedly) creates the pop-up.

The pop-up:

It's funny that the ad is about the American elections when I'm not even an American.

I just got the same popup ad as Thezzy and came here to post it. The ad tag at the bottom was MAD_US.

I don't like rugby

The self-policing thing is fine, and I don't have a problem going to google ad choices every time I may clear my cookies if that actually worked.
The ads still show up for me after doing it though. For now I just straight up blocked all google ads at work (I can't figure out how to only block those specific images using the IE Content Manager functionality), but I'd rather have them display reasonable stuff, just not things I'd feel uncomfortable having other people see on my screen.

e: I didn't bother grabbing the ad tag since this was already discussed earlier in the thread and it seemed that staff were telling users to self-police; I'm merely asking how I can do that .

I got another ad I thought was innappropriate I think. I exited the page before I saw the Ad tag though, but if I see it again, I'll edit my post to include it.

Does "orgy" constitute unacceptable ad protocol? Maybe I'm being kinda nitpicky on this one idk.

Just popped up on mine. The Romney one is MAD_US. It's a mouseover so it's almost assured you'll hit it if you use tabs and once you mouse over it covers up about 1/3 of my vertical space on the screen with the popup while playing some speech from Romney.

Only the right sidebar has NSFW ads. A quick but lazy nuke for this is to get adblock plus, get rid of easylist in the options (so most ads still show, including the top SFW banner ads), and right click the right sidebar ad and click "block element".

No more right sidebar ad = no more NSFW ads.

I was browsing TL at work ( im a bad boy i know) And some of your adds got blocked from our virus protection aswell as a warning message from google saying its malware. I cant tell you wich ads it was since it was blocked, but it might be something you wanna look into if TL is used to spread malware

Pretty sure all the ads are safe, your antivirus probably flagged a fomos image or something, especially if you got a Google warning.

Your business use SonicWall?

It has a built in addblocker for protection sorta.

I dont get TL adds at work and I dont have any type of Addblock in my IE.
Watching streams i get adds though, so im sure its just a setting on your works firewall

I got an ad for Bryer's Ice Cream in the top banner that extended over the top post and the different page links. It had an x to close it, but it didn't work. This ad needs to die. Anyone else getting this?

Sorry, I refreshed the page to get rid of it before I copied down a link or anymore info =[

Ad tag: MAD_US.

I guess I'll ask once more since it's been a couple months, but did anyone figure out how to actually opt out of the google ad choices specifically for NSFW ads like SNORGTEES, but still show other things? Despite it allegedly being possible, I don't see how... For now I'm just blocking all ads on TL because it's better than the alternative of showing those.

They haven't shown up for me in a while now, but I didn't particularly do anything to stop them. All I get now is the same 4-5 ads about these "amazing" "instant" ways to lose weight, make $500/hr easily at home, and how this mom who's 53 looks 25 now after her "secret $5 tip" that "makes botox doctors furious".

It's kind of embarrassing to think anyone would ever click such an ad. I wish there was a "No, not interested" button you could click that would prevent that ad from re-showing for you. I mean if I wasn't interested in the ad the first time I'm not going to click it when it shows up 10 more times in a row. I don't think this applies to TL specifically though.

It's just annoying to have so many ads for 'get rich quick' and 'too good to be true' schemes. Meh. Need some kind of script that loads the ads so it doesn't disrupt TL revenue then just loads a blank box on top of them or something. Does such a thing even exist?

Come across two ads that are just most likely scams. A work from home scam ad and an anti-aging ad. Both are from Canada I think, what is TL's take on these kind of ads?

Just got an ad that showed up in the middle of my screen and stayed in the middle when I scrolled down. Very annoying. Ad tag was TF_US. The ad at the top was for Radio Shack or something but when I pressed print-screen to capture it, it disappeared, and I don't remember what it was about.

I'm getting this irritating Nationwide ad where whenever I exit full screen from a screen it opens up this terrible video with this obnoxious neo-folk happly clappy the-world-is-a-lovely-place music telling a story about how grandma saved with a building society and saved the world or somethine. Which I fucking hate!

Ad tag: TF_INT.

Are you sure you're not hitting the rollover link when exiting from fullscreen? We don't accept any ads that auto play video etc without user interaction.

I get this ad, which is annoying as hell since I can't even click on the first links. I'm also not rolling over with my mouse, it loads by itself and lags my computer

I even took a screenshot while writing this message to show how annoying it is. Poor Elephant, I don't want to hurt him, but this ad makes me mad !

Not sure what's the tag for images, damn ad is in the center (found it, yay for preview).

It happens very consistently, I'd be surprised if I were doing it every time however I will be vigilant - if it is then having a banner sized no-go area for my mouse just below a menu does not make the best of browsing experiences!

Same thing is happening to me. The Rollover animation starts by itself without me even moving the page. I refresh the page with F5, not moving the mouse and it starts ~6 seconds after the page loaded.

I've started becoming annoyed on these rollover ads as well. Being huge as they are, it's quite impossible to scroll down without moving the mouse over them, and what's worse it's that some (eg. the coca cola ad) do not disappear after playing or moving my mouse away and require me to close them myself. It's quite some trouble having to click and adjust it after loading every other page.

This ad seems fine to me. It only plays the video when you have the mouse on top of the ad and the video / audio both stop when the mouse leaves the ad area. Is this not the case for you?

I just had a popup ... will note the add tag next tiem i see it

But it was a nationwide bank account i think.

I really dont mind banner ads .. but are pop ups (or i guess technically pop in) intentional?

In fact whilst writing this and looking through the thrad i got 2 more.

When im reading a page you can bet your left bollock i dont give a fuck about freetime tv unless i happen by some travesty to be on their page.


TF_INT.


And again

TF_INT.

Why do they have to get all in my face?
Answer: I have the option not to let them get in my face and will probably take it.

That Fifa 13 ad is really annoying. It opens when i rollover ( which is a guarantee considering the location) and it stays there (sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't.. And it runs in all tabs that i opened as well. And it suddenly open in tabs that i am not currently browsing.

I think that's because you accidentally mouse over the ad before swapping over the other tab? There's a few seconds of silence before the noisy video plays haha. Happened to me a few times, and I had to swap back to the other tab to switch it off.

That said, I'm here regarding that ad as well

Is there anyway to get PG ads as an option? I view TL at work and the right side ad always has a bunch of bikini anime chicks for a certain video game, at which I never found as too big of an issue. However now I get a new facebook ad with a girl in lingerie and the octopi picture with the girl in her underwear. While it's not a huge ordeal, I always am stuck refreshing the page to get a better ad lol. So I guess more money for TL right. Anyway, if there is an option that can be made available that'd be cool. Worth asking at least.

I'm having this problem as well right now. I'm getting lots of ads saying "Add me on facebook for a good time!" with giant breasts staring at me, which is awkward for work. They starting popping up very recently, in the last few days as far as I know.

I'm not sure what the ad tag details are, but it says ad tag:TF_US at the bottom, if thats what you're looking for.

The right side ads are all from Google. If you click the little AdChoices icon you can report it if you feel it is inappropriate as Google apparently do not allow such ads.

Turned out it was some malware/cookie stuff or something. Werid, cause malwarebytes and superantispyware did not notice anything wrong. I've uninstaled chrome and removed some folders manually to get rid of it. Sorry to bother and thanks for help.

Ditto, scrolled up and down with me. It didn't appear to be associated with the ad on the top bar as I had a Verizon Ad...

Here's the Ad Code though, if it helps: TF_US

If I see it again I'll screenshot it, I didn't realize it would vanish after 30 seconds.... ><

I have this problem since today: sometimes when I navigate through TL my browser just randomly directs me to a site, which only contains a typical banner. The banner is fine, but this whole redirecting thing is annoying. In fact, when I tried to go here from the main page, it happenend six times. Now I don't know if it's a problem with my PC/browser or the TL/the ads.

Seems that we germans get it.
I can't look at some pages on TL, because I instantly get directed to oxasfmg.

Can somebody confirm that this site doesnt contain spyware/malware?
I am worried when I get redirected like that.

Those hover ads we generally allow, since you have to interact with the ad (for at least 3 seconds) to trigger the video.

Just tweeted R1CH a bunch about that one and he said it was blocked in the last 24 hours, received it once today but not since.

You can ignore that, it's a false positive caused by Chrome.

^^ It played sounds. You can hear the guy from the add swing the bat and hit the ball. He did so a few times. I think it's triggered by page opening (or going over it with mouse, but just the first time), because I've tried going over it with the mouse after that and it didn't react.

Hope this still helps.

There's an ad showing in the right sidebar up for a cricket game (link leads to http://download.crazyforcricket.com) which is making sounds, it's irritating as hell.

Edit: I see quirinus already mentioned it.

It's showing up in the top horizontal ad space now too. And it's starting to appear pretty often.

The American Express is randomly playing in the background while watching a stream.

[image loading]

This is what the ad looks like normally. As it says it's only meant to play if you roll over (for a few seconds).
I was alt tabbed on Skyrim and it was still managing to play behind the stream on a second monitor

Hey all,

Ad tag: TF_INT. is the ad tag on the current page, displaying the rollover ad that is displayed on almost every single TL page. I understand these sorts of ads are probably better for TL, and only popup when scrolled over, but I have a pretty glaring issue with them.

Even if I'm not on the TL page (i.e. on another tab with TL open), if I leave my cursor over the same space where the ad is present in the TL tab, the ad will popup and start playing whatever video associated in the TL tab. This can be pretty frustrating. I do have adblock, but whitelist twitch/TL/own3d/mlg/etc etc, I am just hoping that maybe there is a fix to this so I don't have to keep dealing with popup videos unexpectedly.

What browser are you using? There should be no way an inactive tab can read the cursor location, that would be a huge security / privacy issue.

That was my assumption as well, I'm on chrome at the moment, I've just tried it once again. I have inconsistent results in replication, but I am able to replicate at a reasonable rate. Maybe it's something wrong with how I've set up something on my end?

e:

Version 23.0.1271.97 chrome.

I have this same problem with chrome. I think the problem is caused by moving the cursor past the banner at the top when you go to change tabs. The browser than seems to register your cursor as still being over the ad and it opens a few seconds after you've changed tabs.

That's definitely a possibility, but it would have to be a pretty huge delay in registering, over a minute sometimes.

Ad tag: TF_US

This ad started showing up yesterday, and only on my iPad. Couldn't upload an image from my iPad unfortunately, but it is a pink, pop-up advertisement along the bottom of my screen for mobilicity offering 50% off a phone deal. It appears every time a page loads, forcing me to close it, as the ad stays on the bottom of my screen as I scroll. I haven't had any issues with pop-ups on TL before, I assume this is unintentional. Again, I have only been having this issue on the my iPad, TL is all well and good on the PC.

Edit: ad appears on my iPhone as well now.

They're basically popups if I accidentally leave my mouse cursor near them while I read an article. It doesn't seem like something that would happen much, but I've had it popup at least a couple of times every day.
EDIT: Has happened twice since I made this post :X

This happened to me also, and I didn't install any new programms since they started to appear today.

I just blocked:
criteo.com
tribalfusion.com
exponential.com
quantserve.com

on TL. And for now the ads have stopped rolling in. Will report if it doesn't stay that way.

I really don't want to block anything TL-related, but this is driving me crazy.

I get popups on TL since a few days, not 100% sure if only here but I can only recall seeing them on TL. Looks like this:

[image loading]

Is this intended? I might have hovered over the ad-bar but I did certainly not click anything. It's super anoying since it has sound enabled and covers the rest of the site...

This is because you hovered your mouse for 3 seconds over the ad where it says "roll over to view".

Imho this feels sort of intrusive / annoying and the type of advertising you would not expect at TL. I know those banners that expand if you let the cursor rest on them but this is a full video with sound and it does not close if I move the mouse away again.

I got an ad for goodgamestudios which opens up a new tab any time I click anywhere on the page, regardless of where I click

Ad tag: TF_US.

Could have just been flash being shitty, but could also be a malicious ad

By popup I don't mean a separate webpage, but videos popping up within TL webpages. Halifax bank is one of them, for me at least. They seem to particularly happen when I'm in another tab, so I have to tab back in to close it.

I just came here to report the exact same ad, I'm not sure if theres a different wording for an english version of this ad but the German version says "Click Here" in the bottom right corner. However it opens not when you click it but when you hover over it for 3s.

The "open annoying video when you hover over the ad" happens no matter where you hover over it (not just the bottom right corner), so it easily catches me when I scroll up without thinking about it. T_T

I had this ad pop up while I was on a different tab, and the guy started speaking which freaked me out a bit.
I then tabbed back and he was silent, just standing there blinking occasionally.

Edit:
I assume it must have been because I hovered over the rollover to view, but I was on a different tab when it all started up.

Yeah those require a rollover to activate, will contact our provider about the tab issue, seems really strange it would activate in a background tab.

I just got the same advert on this page and tested it. If I put the mouse where the rollover part is, then alt tab to a different program straight away it will still go through since the mouse is still in the rollover spot and it doesn't detect that you have switched programs. Not that annoying tbh, I don't really mind it.

I keep getting adds pop up when i am watching streams, the canon one (TF_INT) seems to do it the most, even when i am looking at a different tab, and it really is starting to piss me off. I usually just ignore this stuff and deal with it, but it is starting to grate :/

I know it is meant to be a rollover to activate, but i swear it sometimes activates anyway, or when i am on a stream or different tab.
The world is ending what should we do about it?

I got the same thing again the other day, theres definitely something not working right with these rollover to activate ones on different tabs.

Not sure if this is considered an ad, but when I put my mouse over this guy's comment the box comes up.

I just got it for another thing too, maybe I have a virus or something.

TL isn't work safe. I keep getting "arab girls" and "asian girls" ads. I've resisted ad-blocking TL as long as possible, but its just not work safe. I understand you guys try to keep tabs on it, but it isn't working. You can't expect people to just deal with this garbage. Its extremely distasteful.

Its not like they are nude?

Is a picture of a woman's face smiling really that offensive?

I mean you could question the legitimacy of these 'dating' sites, but really don't see how the adds themselves are an issue.

Maybe he's talking about that tshirt ad with the bent-over chick (ironically you can't even see what's on the t-shirt). That isn't exactly work safe by any measure, I'd think.

I've been getting this ad on liquipedia, not sure if it enters the bad ads category, sadly I don't think there is/didn't find the ad tag there so I couldn't copy it

The ad

The small thumbs move from left to right in a flashy manner which makes it pretty annoying too

Teamliquid.net is one of the few website I whitelist on my adblock. That might change if "Asianbeauties.com" (as I saw today) and other scam websites advertise here. I can't imagine you are spoiled for choice with ads or that you should change anything based on one lone complaint. But please consider this feedback as part of the aggregate when next you review your ad policy.

I just refreshed and got to the page fine, so I assume it was something to do with an ad on the homepage. Hopefully this is the right place to report this ^.^

I had this ad pop up while I was on a different tab, and the guy started speaking which freaked me out a bit.
I then tabbed back and he was silent, just standing there blinking occasionally.

Edit:
I assume it must have been because I hovered over the rollover to view, but I was on a different tab when it all started up.


To add to this: If I have a window over TL and I mouse over the ad for less then a second and go back to my window even if my mouse isn't on the advert position it will continue to "roll over" and pops up.

The only reason it should pop up is if the window is active and my mouse is over it which isn't the case.

There isn't really anything we can do about that, if you tab out of your browser or switch tabs while you are hovering over an ad (those ads take three seconds to pop I believe), the popup ad won't know about your future mouse movements. It would constitute a security risk if a page could read your mouse when you aren't actively using it.

This ad was blinking quite a bit, which was quite annoying and it is obviously misleading. The ad tag is TF_INT. I don't know if it is helpful, but this is the HTML code for the object: + Show Spoiler +

Same here. If I don't like ad and TL is not willing to remove it then I just start using adblock. I mean if Rich is saying that ad is okay (overall view of some ads) then I think most will just use adblock after that without telling TL that they did. Its lose-lose situation for both.

Very annoying ad, your basic blinking "YOU HAVE WON!":

Besides the obvious obnoxiousness of the ad itself, it is accompanied by a loud fanfare of trumpets.

Ad tag: TF_INT

Yep, that's the viewpoint I took. I don't know about you guys, but I kept getting "Snorgtees" ads with really sexually suggestive pictures even if they weren't actually nude. That was the last straw for me and I started ad-blocking TL at work.
I posted in here and tried to do it the legit way without adblocking it, including going into my google ad preferences and removing everything it had picked up for me, but it didn't seem to help at all (I still got the same ads).
I don't have a problem with ads "I don't like" in the sense that it could be irrelevant or advertise something I think is stupid, but I do have a problem with ads that basically make it so that if the ad is there I can't view the page.

I'm getting a lenovo pop up, I'll screen shot it next time I can, but it keeps popping out of my screen. I have nothing really against it if it were to just stay on the side bar or something, but this is popping up at me and preventing me from actually viewing TL. I think another poster posted something similar to what I'm going through above.

EDIT: It isn't happening every time apparently. I'm not getting in anymore as of right now.

Yeah, that Lenovo ad is the one that has been bothering me, I think. (I posted a separate thread about this.) I've also, as I said there, had pages redirect me to the app store on my iphone, which is really annoying. I'll try to get the ad tag the next time the Lenovo ad comes up, but you have to close it to even see the main site, so I don't know if that means the ad tag won't match up.

How many ad tags TL.net has? TF_INT (international) and other for TF_US (For US) users? User who posted was from Canada, so any canadian user might inform are they getting TF_INT ads or TF_US. But just in case why not check both ad tags and remove offensive ones?

I'm sorry, but TL's stance on mouse-over ads needs to change. I don't understand why you guys take the stance that they are acceptable. Having your mouse pointer end up over an ad for a few seconds doesn't mean we intended to have it there. Mouse over ads take up the screen, are usually accompanied with sound (which is yet another unacceptable characteristic), and are just really annoying.

TL comes across as inconsiderate. TL knows that a lot of people, myself included, will do everything they can to support TL, meaning we won't ad-block, and so we have to put up with these ads. I'm going to give TL one final week before I permanently ad-block TL on all my devices. By insisting on having as many different types of ads as possible, you are losing me as a source of ad revenue.

It takes three seconds of hovering over the firefly video banner ads before they pop out, during which time you see a progress bar counting up before the popup occurs. If you think we are insisting on every possible type of ad, you are very much mistaken. We have opted out of the majority of high paying ad campaigns because even though they would generate us thousands of dollars of additional revenue, we feel they are too intrusive. Just for the sake of transparency, here are our ad controls:

Ad types allowed:

Ad filters:

It's very frustrating to see responses like yours when we're already taking great measures to limit the intrusiveness of ads.

Maybe check Suggestive? At least, I would assume it falls into that category... Seeing your post, I un-adblocked TL, but I reblocked after seeing the following ad.

You need to click the ad choices icon to figure out where that's coming from, you should be able to adjust your preferences at whatever network if you are able to see the ad choices icon.

Didn't notice the mod note requiring an ad tag. The ad tag is TF_US. If it required a rollover or something I'd have no issue with it but it even pops up and starts blaring noise when I'm full screened on a stream which is obnoxious >_<

I've tested this exact ad in my browser, it requires a 3 second hover to trigger. It doesn't just pop up by itself.

That's not the experience I've had. It popped up at least ten times during MLG weekend while I was full screen. I was watching the stream directly on twitch too so I wasn't even on the same tab. I'm using Chrome, I didn't try any other browsers.

In my case, when I click on a stream and start watching, for some reason, my pointer ends up hovering there. I don't know why. Maybe because I move it out of the way of the stream. But point is, in practice, a hover ad is not an add where it only plays when someone shows an interest and intends to make it play. It seems to happen accidentally to more people than just me.

I'm sorry for saying you guys try to milk us all you can, I can see that's not true now. I <3<3<3 TL immensely, which is why I have thrown such a fuss over this.

I respect whatever you guys decide to do, but I think its valid to say that a hover ad is not actually a hover ad. They aren't only activated by interest. It happens accidentally quite often, and should be addressed as such. Since in the end, that's the experience the users have.

I am actually having the same thing occur to me with that lenovo ad. I won't even have the tab that has the ad on top and it will just go off randomly. Not sure why this happens, but it definitely does.

I was experimenting with the rollover putting a tab on my main monitor. Then the Lenovo ad started blaring and had taken over the tab that was to this very thread.

It seems to occur in when my mouse is on the ad, which is at the top of the browser and I go to click on a different tab.

Example:
http://www.twitch.tv/suftv/b/381396265

It seems to occur in other instances, but that is the one I can recreate.

The other times I recall it happening is if I open a new thread and my mouse happens to be where the banner ad is. Before I notice, since I am usually reading the thread, the ad goes off.

Unfortunately there isn't anything that can be done about that specific example, the browser doesn't let the page (or flash player in this case) know when the cursor has left the page, or the position of the cursor on other pages as this would constitute a security risk.

I was experimenting with the rollover putting a tab on my main monitor. Then the Lenovo ad started blaring and had taken over the tab that was to this very thread.

It seems to occur in when my mouse is on the ad, which is at the top of the browser and I go to click on a different tab.

Example:
http://www.twitch.tv/suftv/b/381396265

It seems to occur in other instances, but that is the one I can recreate.

The other times I recall it happening is if I open a new thread and my mouse happens to be where the banner ad is. Before I notice, since I am usually reading the thread, the ad goes off.


Thanks, I never would have been able to figure out how this was happening on my own. This has been driving me nuts for a while now. I guess I'll try and be really careful where i put my mouse whenever that lenovo ad is up.

Goddammit that lenova ad scared the shit outa me. Came in here to report it but seems that there's already a discussion on it.

If there's anything that can be done, please remove it. Thanks.

If you click the X on the ad, Google will adjust your preferences so you don't see ads like that.

Ad tag: TF_US

I am happy to un-Adblock EVERYTHING on TL and all streams. However, the current Lenovo Yoga? add that expands into it's own window and starts a loud ad is very annoying. I will NOT adblock, but please look into! Thanks.

EDIT: Sorry, I now see R1CH's note. I guess when I open a stream page, I leave my mouse in just the right place. SORRY! I will pay more attention in the future.

I know that I don't post very often but I hope my thoughts will still be relevant. I appreciate what you guys do in terms of the ads on the site and that it probably seems like whining, but I really dislike the Lenovo ad.

Reading R1CH's post and watching the video about how it triggers have been helpful in minimizing the number of times I deal with this, but overall I would say that I view it pretty negatively. Even with the knowledge of how to prevent the popup I still find myself making mistakes while using other programs and being punished by alarms. If it was just a silent popup I wouldn't mind, but the blaring of loud noise is quite irritating.

My impressions are that teamliquid.net is generally much better about ads than other sites. I don't have to deal with inappropriate ads plastered all over my screen and as a result I more frequently see interesting tech ads here. At least for me this is one of the few sites where I have clicked on an add to learn more about the company as opposed to accidentally opening it.

By contrast the lenovo ad seems more intrusive than the average for other sites. This was partly because I couldn't figure out why the ad was triggering while I wasn't on the page, and partly because ads rarely force proactive action from me to avoid them. If one bothers me or is in poor taste I can just stop looking at it. An ad that merely covers the screen does not impact me doing other things, but I find it hard to listen to music while this ad plays in the background.

Take my feedback for what it is worth. I hope it is helpful,

I was able to recreate the ad counting down without hovering over it, but this time a different way. Basically what I did was move the tab to create a new window, but placed the tab back. Then, for whatever reason, the cursor would count as sitting on the ad when you scroll across it vertically. Passing across the ad and exiting horizontally did not have the same effect. The video shows this.

It looks like this is more a case of you skipping from the flash ad onto the flash video without touching the browser in between, so the ad never sees that the cursor left it.

I'll put my 2c in on this also and say that this Lenovo add is fucking annoying and frequently activates even when I'm on other tabs. I realize I could watch a video (wtf?) on how to not make this ad intrusive but that's fucking ridiculous. It's an ad, it should just sit there waiting for me to look at it, and if it insists on being a roll-over, it should actually require me to pause my cursor on the ad, on the right tab, in order for it to expand and start blaring sound at me.

I love TL and have proudly not used AdBlock ever since I came here, but this is testing my patience.

It's very frustrating to see responses like yours when we're already taking great measures to limit the intrusiveness of ads.


Just out of curiosity, why did you filter out Gambling and Tobacco? I don't even see a big problem with these topics.

It does require you to pause your cursor to rollover. However due to browser limitations, if you move your cursor directly from the ad to the browser chrome or another flash object, or if your sensitivity causes it to skip empty space, the ad never sees the mouse leave the ad since flash is a terrible thing and should not exist.

What about ads on Liquipedia?

I got this one;
[image loading]

Doesn't look bad, right? Well, whenever I hover it it plays a sound "DIIIING YOU HAVE MAILLLLLL!". I dont think there's any AD-tags on Liquipedia, and I can't seem to find the URL to the ad.

What do?

Edit: When clicking the ad I get sent to this page:
http://ad.yieldmanager.com/support/click_error.html

Which gives me a 404..

I just got some annoying ad with sound in liquipedia for the second time in the past ~10 days. The first time it took me a while to even understand from which tab the sound came... I forgot to check which ad it was though.

Hello, I want to report really nasty thing.
In SC2 wiki, in the left column there appears just awful ad, which makes loud noises even without mouseover, and if there are multiple liquipedia pages open, it's just non-stop "blah-blah-blah-blah", which is loud and usually louder than streams.
Example of ad: http://i.imgur.com/8P7Pyp4.png
Position of ad: http://i.imgur.com/3itXVqD.png

PLEASE please please, get rid of these ads, they are so annoying, I am even thinking to turn adblock back on

I'm getting ads that randomly pop up nearly fullscreen with music and sounds. Like this one:

Tag: TF_INT.

I live in the UK, and there are other ads that do this kind of thing as well. It's especially annoying when I'm watching a stream, as I'll leave that page open for hours at at time, and just get randomly blasted with music. I'm running Chrome, and it should be up to date.

I got this one on Liquipedia today - there doesn't seem to be any ad tag, but can you please remove it - it still comes with the trumphet sound which is annoying.

I've also seen the same ad with Mass Effect art and what looks like Warhammer art, though I'm not sure.

I don't know if this is against team liquid advertising rules but this ad banner has a transparent background, causing the elephant to show through it, which I find very distracting. Makes me think that the page is glitching up.

I have never reported an ad before, so not sure i am doing it right. But i have started getting this ad on Liquipedia, when the page first loads it plays a loud trumpet sound two times in a row.

The ad leads to : http://www.aldaniti.net/wingames/apple_dk/index.php

I have a similar ad to the one Oasx posted:
[image loading]
It plays the same obnoxious trumpet when the page loads.

The ad leads to this URL:
http://www.aldaniti.net/wingames/index.php?pk_campania=MTMwMzA=k9x&pk_creatividad=MTM4MTA=k9x&partner_param=[partnerID]
which in turn redirects to the same page as above.

It popped up over the DH stream, I'm sure I didn't activate it via rollover as my mouse was in my other monitor.

I had the same ad pop up when I was on a separate tab. It has loud music associated with it. I had to tab through chrome to find out why I had music playing.

You appear to be rolling over the ad and activating it. Notice the 'rollover to view' in the corner of the banner - if you hover over that for three seconds, it will expand into the video ad.

Having an issue with TL from my phone. Using Chrome right now, and I'm noticing this ad that says: Enjoy 3 Nights in ORLANDO. $149 GET STARTED.

It keeps popping up whenever I click on anything or go to a new page.

It also follows my screen whenever I scroll down or up.

Browsing TL on my ipad has become dreadful as of late. There is a huge ad spanning across the screen at the bottom and follows you everywhere. Can we not have a stationary ad for mobile users?

There is also the shock element because when u drag it goes away, when u stop, it pops right back. I'm so tired of seeing the bald skype guy and the orphan donation kid disappear and reappear every time I scroll!

Tag: TF US

It says "Watch Sports" with a green download arrow, click on the banner and it brings up a website with a voiceover. I was curious and interested in the service, and so googled "bringmesports service" and all I found, aside from their website, were tech sites advising how to remove it:

http://www.shouldiremoveit.com/BringMeSports-Toolbar-Chrome-Extension-33778-program.aspx

For instance this page says it uses MyWebSearch, an old and well-known malware program.

Another (that I can't seem to find again) describes it as a trojan that disables task manager and other windows utilities.


From what I can tell this service seems very malicious and unsafe and anything advertising it should be removed immediately.

EDIT: Another reference, clearly detailing its malicious nature: http://forums.anvisoft.com/viewtopic-56-2951-0.html.

German ad of Etithad airways that overlaps the first post on each page when you mouseover (this happens quite often accidently). Only gets back to the original size one you click on the top right where it says "schließen"="close".

Ad tag: TF_US

It's a Walmart ad in Spanish that functions in a similar way to the German Etithad ad. The banner expands over the first posts or so if you accidentally hover over it.

However, we got a new one now apparently, incredibly similar to that Etihad one, linking here:

http://naturallylangkawi.my/EN/Home

And since i am already at it, this annoying piece of shit is even worse:

http://www.uptasia.de/?ref=goutde&mk=online tv streaming live&mp=www.teamliquid.net&mt=&mm=

Making a wonderful and incredibly loud "BLÖBLÖBBB!" sound each time you move your mouse across it. I honestly wonder why adds would go out of their way to annoy you. That can't be actually leading to sales, can it? If they stay in their boxes, i might click them if i am interested in asian mail order brides at some point. If they do annoying shit, i will never, ever consider buying anything from them if i make a connection between that site and the add. I might click them once or twice trying to get them to shut up, but i will never actually stay around wherever they lead to.

Hate to complain again, but the sound ad is still there. Or maybe it's a different ad for the same site doing the same shit.

Can we get rid of all the dating ads? Makes it very hard to read TL in public without making it look like some tacky site. Seems to pop up a lot when I'm reading DotA threads for some reason. And it's so awkward having so many dating ads popping up.

On liquidhearth there is an ad for future card buddy fight that sometimes starts playing a video when I change to another tab. All that appears for the ad tag for any page on liquidhearth is Ad tag: . . I'm fairly sure I'm not keeping my mouse on the ad long enough for the video to start though I may have rolled over it by mistake.

I can't include screenshots since all these ads appeared while I was browsing with my phone.
Every single one of these ads keep following me whenever I scroll up or down. They also constantly keep coming back whenever I go to a new page.

I have been experiencing an issue this past week or maybe two, where around 50% of the time I go to a page on TL my browser freezes up, ads don't load, and the bottom half of the screen becomes the pattern of white and blue squares as shown in the picture below. I'm not entirely sure if this is a problem on my end or if it is a problem with a specific ad on TL, but if I enable adblock the problem goes away. I've disabled adblock on other websites to try and determine if the problem is just with my computer dealing with ads in general or if it is just with TL, and I haven't been able to reproduce it on any other site.

Anyone else having an issue like this with certain ads or is it likely just on my end?

Not sure whether we classify this as acceptable or not. While it doesn't flash or squeek or any other annoying bullshit I shudder to think what kind of nastiness is thrown on your PC when you click this crap.

The site it would link to would be: http://media.fastclick.net/w/click.here?cid=561350&mid=1121020&m=1&sid=56587&c=0&tp=5&UD=WhI0NzQzMDIzNTk3NTcyMDMyMzmIAfy1RJABxqEimAGLugOgAQGoAQXwAQCyAg04Mi4xNTcuNjQuMTAy&upsid=474302359757203239

Just sort of popped out at me the second I logged on to TL. I didn't even hover or anything :/

But yeah, the banner behind it was the same thing.

I've been seeing some weird ads, where it looks like the add is being blocked (I see elly in the background) But there is a download button hovering out in front.

And then I just tabbed into Mighty Atom's blog and got a virus threat blocked

It means someone linked to an image on a site that had a malware infection. It's safe to ignore the warning since viewing images can't do anything nasty.

I don't really like having those ads when I surf TL at work:

Without a link or other information I can't really track an ad down by screenshot alone.

I'm an idiot, I'll make sure to copy the link next time I see it.

I guess this belongs here... I just got plaintext html where the ads normally go in the center of the page when browsing a thread. I have no idea what it does. I added linebreaks to be able to post it.

I'd like to report the Encorp recycling ad shown below.

+ Show Spoiler +

It leads to the following url for me http://www.return-it.ca/locations/?utm_source=Exponential&utm_medium=728x90_Expandable&utm_content=PLS_SocialOutcast&utm_campaign=2014Banners

Since it rolls open each time my cursor goes over it, I must have clicked on it dozens of time trying to change page numbers in a thread.

Can you post a screenshot of what it looks like before it expands?

I have an ad to report, it's annoying expanding and it's buggy, sometimes it expands even when I am in different part of the page and prevents reading of the top posts on a page and can't be closed (only solution to reload page).

But how do you identify a flash ad which is inserted into the code using javascript? I just don't seem to have the right tools, tracking it from the source is impossible - I can only give you that it leads to http://naturallylangkawi.my/EN/Home and that the insertion code is
<div id="94480c598f" class="pagefair-acceptable"></div>
<div id="fuab" style="padding: 5px; width:736px;
height:90px;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;display:block;margin-top:0px;padding-bottom:0px">
<div id="fuab_content"><div style="width:736px; height:90px; overflow: hidden;
padding: 0px; margin: 0px; margin-top:0px" id="fuab_container">
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
e9 = new Object();
e9.size = "728x90";
//--></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://tags.expo9.exponential.com/tags/TeamLiquidnet1/ROS/tags.js">
</script></div></div>


edit: now I observe that it is more than one ad, all for Langkawi - i don't know if I should try to identify them all as I am not sure, what would be the useful data for you, but all show the same randlmy expanding behaviour in Chrome.

Could can you get a screenshot?

Also if you're interested to find which network it's coming from, use the F12 tools to inspect the page, it shows it after all the scripts have run so you can see all the ad code. It's usually nested quite deep inside several iframes.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to find out where this is coming from, it's not listed at our main provider and Google usually doesn't include expandable ads.

I'd like to report this irritating ad that expands when one mouses over, and creates some drop down from the top of the screen that haemorrhages one's ears with loud noises. I think it only appears for Singapore users, since the ad is for some private degree provider in Singapore.

So far today, every single page I've clicked on TL has been showing this ad.

Does this expand instantly or after a 3 second hover or similar? We allow ads that expand after 3 second hover, but instant ones are definitely a no-go.

Oh, it actually only expands after hovering for a few seconds. But it has jarringly loud sounds, and people like me accidentally open it when leaving the mouse cursor at the wrong place for too long.

Starting a day or two ago I started getting ads that opened in a new tab and appear to be typical malicious/phishing-type pop ups, typos and all

+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]


It looks like a typical flash player update prompt, but the entire image is clickable, one single link (not just the buttons specifically)

Here's the URL? http://ad124m.adk2.net/player.html?a=45051019&context=c45411014&size=800x600&rt=popunder&ci=10&cb=469896430&SOURCEURL=t-1720_sub-newinf_o-2_src-_pb-_lnk-58
Edit: ^ That is, the URL in the address bar of the "ad" tab, not the URL that the image/ad points to, even though when I go to it now it doesn't pull up that same page...?

Edit: In Safari, if relevant

It beeps quite loudly when you hover over it. The expand timing is fine (like 5 seconds, not that you'd hover for 5 seconds because it beeps and plays bad music the whole time...).
This is where the ad directs to. I don't know how to get anything else :/

having problems with expanding adds, simply going over them once triggers an un-cancel-able load and can't be clicked away

Expandable ads with a hover delay of 3 seconds or more are allowed, even if it plays sound after expanding.

Got an ad that brings up a pop up when I refresh the page... I scanned with Malware bytes and it said there wasn't anything on my computer and browsing other websites doesn't give me any pop-ups. I had it happen 4 times but I only noted the ads that were on the page twice(got em in 2 separate tabs atm) + Show Spoiler +
[image loading]
The "Yes We Can" ad is the only one shared by both pages that spawned a new tab at this URL :http://pckeeperapp.zeobit.com/land/7.13/index.php?affid=mzb_216.2050970.1411697070.4.mzb&utm_source=ilx&utm_medium=cpi&utm_campaign=pck_ilx_cpi_us_ff&utm_term=&utm_content=&userDefiner=mzb_2358&installer=&trt=33_22526071&tid_ext=g_raul;t-1726_sub-ed4md24_o-1_src-_pb-_lnk-85

I used F12 and found where the ad is stored but I don't really know what to look for there... (right clicking the ad doesn't give me a link because its a Flash thing) If you can give me a hint as to what to look for in the HTML and I remember to keep the tab open I can paste it for you later.

LOL and now I just got one in that same box that played music(my cursor was no where near the box) and was like "MGM" or something and it did a comic book sorta thing with heroes. [image loading]

As of now, I cannot view TL without chrome warning me that "the site ahead contains malware". I figured it was a bad ad, so I removed TL from my whitelist and I am now able to view the site without the warning. No idea which ads were on screen to cause the warning, as chrome completely blocks out the site from view with the warning. Hopefully this is resolved so I can whitelist TL once more.

Strange, Google's own site adviser says TL is safe.

Are you sure you don't have any malware on your PC in the form of Chrome addons or other programs that may be hijacking your ads?

I am fairly religious about having zero malware on my PC, but I can scan once more. As far as Chrome addons, I only have ad block.

We allow user-initiated rollover ads. You have to hover for three seconds before it expands and plays audio.

Nothing but Salvation Army ads for days for me. Do we really want to be taking ad revenue from a charity which a) should be helping people with that money and b) would only be helping straight people with that money, and any money tl users donated, because fuck gays.

I'd be more concerned with the salvation army's views on gays and their usage of donations far more than I would them soliciting donations via ads. GOtta spend money to make money.... or donations.

Does anyone get that little bar of an ad on their phones when they visit TL, it sticks on the page and when u scroll it follows the scroll so that it always blocks the bottom section of the screen and even if u manage to hit the tiny tiny X button the ad reappearings once u visiting a new tl page or refresh it.
The ads change as well its but its never not shown itself on my phone

Okay so, whenever I visit any TL page, I get a really annoying hidden ad. I can't see it but it automatically plays an audio clip. Like, a really long one. It starts off with some guy saying "WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP!" and then the guys start talking about some story of them popping a zit or something wtf.

I actually just got this too after coming to the thread haha

I'm using ie at work with no adblock though, no idea if it has anything to do with that. I've not seen it on my comp (I use chrome)

Google seem awfully slow at cleaning up these spammers unfortunately. I block the ads but they just put new ones up under a new account, it's like playing whack-a-mole. The latest ones should be blocked for now.

I half wonder if it would be more effective to DDoS them...

If you're still getting these redirects, as a workaround you can try adding this to your hosts file:

127.0.0.1 ebay300.wan-tracker.com
127.0.0.1 ebay320.wan-tracker.com
127.0.0.1 ebay728.wan-tracker.com

A couple of days ago I started to get this problem where Liquipedia was loading very slowly. I decided to try to use adblock and it made LP work normal again for me. Does it also have anything to do with these ads?

The server was under heavy load the last few days, because we are changing a few central templates and purging the cache to make the changes visible. Maybe this is what you are feeling at the moment.

Ads should never slow the page loading since we specifically request asynchronous scripts to avoid this. If our main ad provider has problems it might be slow to load once or twice, but once the script is in your cache there should be no further slowdown.

FYI I'm having consistent lag of ~1s on almost every click while on TL whenever the action is taken immediately after the page loads. For example, I click the subscribed threads link at the top left of TL, then as soon as the page draws I go to click the > arrow next to one of my active threads with new posts, and there is a delay.

edit: another example: When the thread I had clicked on draws, I click the center mouse button for scrolling, and my cursor is frozen in place for roughly a second. I don't know if this is due to ads or not.

There is a minimum 1sec delay between actions on TL, if you're really clicking that quick you may be running into that but it's very unlikely. It sounds more like a CPU issue on your end, maybe some browser extensions / security software / malware.

It seems to be timed the same as the ads. I am having the same problem with both chrome and ie. I ran a malware scan yesterday (Malwarebytes) and nothing turned up (also have up to date MSE). I have not added any security software. My CPU gauge seems to spike during the problem so I think you are right it is CPU-related.

edit: installing adblock makes the slowdown go away (maybe I was getting hammered by a particular ad that was CPU abusive?)

I'm getting an NSFW ad on LDota. It has bunch of tech products in windows with individual links, so I'm not sure which one to pull. Occasionally one of them is a pair of boobs. Link one of the products leads to is:

My browser (FF 36.0.1 on Windows, latest version as well as the 64-bit developer alpha) frequently (every 5 -30 minutes) crashes on Liquipedia. I suspect it's an ad issue because it hasn't happed since I've installed NoScript. Malware checks are fine and it doesn't happen on other websites.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to isolate a single ad (provider) causing this yet.

​Hey something is up lately. I'm on my phone and pretty much every page has a flashing banner ad, like the dish Latino soccor ad.

And more feedback on the mobile: my phone is really lagging on TL, but only on TL. Also there is an issue with the texting feature in replying constantly blinking on and off. Sometimes I select reply and then prepare to type, but the qwerty board never pops up... Sometimes it flickers. Again, this only happens on TL. Not even on Gawker.

I actually am typing this in gawker and pasting it in TL. Don't know if it's ad related, but consider this bonus mobile feedback. Anyone else having this issue?

You can click the info icon and report the specific ad directly to Google. I saw the ad in our control panel, but there were no boobs, just various knock off products. Deal Extreme is a pretty well known site so I really doubt they have bad ads like that.

So I have no idea what's going on, but I figured I'd report it anyway as I think it must be an ad.

Something is randomly redirecting me away from TeamLiquid and onto an ad page, automatically. This happens in the main window, and if I press the back button, I go back to TL and get a different ad. I have no way of telling what ad is doing it as it transfers me instantly (before it loads, basically).

Can I make Chrome automatically open things in target="_blank" so that I can stay on the page and maybe catch the ad in question when it tries to pull this bullshit?

Info:
I'm on Chrome,
I don't have adware or malware to the best of my knowledge (I have MalwareBytes and Hitman Pro),
I only have Chrome extensions I trust (and there is no adware in there),
I have TL+ but I have checked to see ads anyway,
I have no idea what exactly is causing this.


Edit:
Ad tag (found at the bottom of the page) was TF_INT,
and it redirects me to http://ccebba93.se/?placement=400909&redirect which then redirects me to the actual ad.
Edit2:
And now I went to
http://s.vgsgaming-ads.com/adiframe|3.0|1460|5208357|0|16|ADTECH;target=_blank;sub1=366464;sub2=;sub3=;sub4=;misc=1430350806
automatically.

Still no clue why this is automatic.

Edit3:
Disabled all extensions, still happening. Also running HitmanPro again right now, but it's not finding anything.

Edit4:
No problems found in MalwareBytes, Hitman Pro, or MSE.

You can find out more information by leaving the developer tool window open (F12) and opening the network tab, then ticking "preserve log". All network activity for the window will then be logged, so you can narrow down which things were loaded before the redirect happened.

I'm getting this ad on LD, the ad plays a loud beep on mouse hover and it's animated. It's severely affecting the perfomance of the page, very visible when I try to scroll and the page hangs a bit. No button to mute this ad unlike the google ads :/

It is playing when I'm not even on my TL tab.

It says "80% faster than cisco" which sounds like something different than the movie trailer above though.

There's some new autoplay video ads that show up undernearth the rightside sidebar, every once and a while it has automatic audio that plays even when the ad isn't even showing on the screen (so I definitely didn't mouse over it.). It's happened several times now and it's really annoying. I only realized what it was this time though and it was from "ReviewRants".

This ad activates on hover and takes over the screen. Once the screen is taken over, there is no way to avoid going to the advertised site, even if you try to click on the dark area outside of the ad.

I'm getting that ad too sometimes. can't close it and i have to refresh the page. it's always been when I'm watching a stream but that may be a coincidence. happens when the stream first loads, sometimes a few seconds after its totally loaded.

plz remove video ads on that right sidebar (O2 player). TL is lagging hard. TL is fluently with just banners. I dont think adblock can ban a specific ad and I dont want to use adblock here.
Edit: I have to say that this is on chrome. IE works fluently.

On Firefox the video add on the rightside bar is completely lagging the browser to bits.
Sometimes it borderline crashes.

Similar problem with FIrefox. Browser just slow down and Flashplayer become extremely lagging and unstable.
Edit: Flashplayer just keep using more and more memory when the ads load, from less than 100MB to over 400MB and it still increases... Its CPU usage jumps to over 10% as well...

Ok so the recent slew of ads that display on the right side of the page have been slowing down my browser substantially. Most of the time, I can't even identify them because they trigger an unresponsive scrip warning and require that I reload the page or disable them entirely. I used to be able to leave a tl window open as one of my tabs and these ads are largely making it impossible. I've noticed that it usually involves ads that implement a video of some kind. I would provide more identification only I can't seem to "catch" the ads before they trigger unresponsive scrip warnings.

Edit: I'll try and take a screenshot the next time it pops up.

Hi,

I've (for the first time on this site) encountered an annoying ad, that slowed down my browser and constantly looped a video with sound. As far as I could tell at the moment, I couldn't turn the sound (or video) of. I've made a screenshot of the ad, but didn't know the url was relevant as well. As soon as I encounter it again, i will note the url.

If this is a known ad and not considered unacceptable, please ignore this post.

Edit: Video url: blob:https%3A//www.youtube.com/12652ab0-f557-4eb9-8771-479fee3a93c3

Hey, I'm getting some straight up autoplay video ads again. Quite a few of them actually. They dont fit the page and cause massive slow down, and if I'm trying to watch a stream they're even worse.

I recently have some auto play video ads on TL that slow my Laptop down a lot. This is quite annoying, i would love to keep being able not to use adblock, but if this keeps up it is basically the choice between using adblock or not using TL.

Apparently i am not the only person that has that problem, but i don't know how i can get the information you need.

Rightclicking just says something about an "O2 Player", the ad itself is from what i can tell for some deodorant, and half the time it crashes my flash player. I am using firefox, as that appears to be relevant for others that have the same problem.

It would be really nice if you could get rid of these ads.

These video ads above (and below apparently) the life stream list are incredibly annoying. They lag my computer hard, crash half the time, and i really thought that TL was above having fucking autoplay video ads on its pages. They also come up every single time i load a page on TL now, always leading to a 5-10 second freeze, sometimes longer until flash decides to crash. And even after a page has been loaded for a while, they still slow it down, sometimes completely freeze or crash.

It seems to be some sort of ad for Rexona deodorant. And Levi's Jeans for women.

Is something being done about these? Can i do something to help?

anyone experiences a little like "beep" on the video ads, they its like when i load into a new ad with a video ad or if the page im on has an ad and it changes to a video ad, i get like half a second of the video playing before it mutes itself which is getting really annoying, every now and again i get this "sound"
I wanna find out if its just my settings/browser or something...

Here is a compilation of screenshots of those videos,

and here are the sites i end up on when clicking them:

Obviously, those are only the working ones. The broken once just keep on circling, lagging my PC and crashing from time to time. For now, just turning off Flash player seems to fix the problem, but i would kind of like to have that one turned on.

I'm experiencing these video ads as well- sounds suddenly playing, though stuttered because it bogs down my computer. Half the time it freezes my browser so I can't even record a link- have to end process instead.

Yeah I have the same one, keeping showing the loading icon and crashing/freezing the browser.
If I remove them with Firebug the browser acts normally.

same problem here. No idea idea if it's the specific adds or the player but it seems like the player just crashes or slows down everything even if it works. They don't autoplay for me so all I see is a black picture with a "play" button on it and despite not playing I have about ~2 second lag on this page. If I mouseover somewhere it'll take about 1-2 seconds until the link (like forum on the left) gets the usual mouseover highlight. Even as I'm typing right now I'm having the same lag and the words only appear a couple seconds after I press on the keyboard.

If I DO press on the play button the video stutters like crazy (without sound, though might be that's just off by default?) and I get something like this:
[image loading]

aaaand my other tab is completly frozen, just got the message in my browser that my flash-plugin crashed and that I should stop it

I'm on Win8, Chrome if that helps. If you want anything else just go ahead and ask but it's kind of hard to get information about the adds with browser frozen and not even being able to scroll at times.

I made a thread on my browser dieing on TL - now after investigating more it seems to me that it is those mp4 ads, my computer just does not handle them well.

So far I didn't get anyone to really kill the browser, but at least this one
https://azdownloads-a.akamaihd.net/videos/New-York-300x168.mp4
is very common now and makes my CPU usage skyrocket everytime it opens.

edit: ha! there is a disable HTML5 autoplay feature in FF, I tried it, seems to be better (but still even loading those ads drains some unnecesarry power)

I don't really know if it's the correct place to post this, but I think the ads on TL are slightly fucked up on my PC : even though I have (well had, because of my problem I turned it on again, no point in getting only Twitch ads) adblock off for TL.net (the whole site), and while I get ads from the Twitch streams I watch on TL, I don't see any other ads, neither at the top of the page nor in the right sidebar. Why?

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.

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.

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

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.

We allow auto playing video ads, but not with audio. Do you have some examples of the ads, preferably with screenshots of dev tools? (Right click the ad, inspect, maximize the dev tools window, scroll up so the ad code is near the bottom of the window and and screenshot).

Does the decision to allow video ads provide enough income to compensate for me using adblock on TL? I mean, I am still just one user, but let me guess, probably in the top 1% of pageviews per user. So if the video ads only bring a very small increase in revenue, they might actually be worth blocking just for me

Because I am sorry, but I just won't let ANYTHING moving on my computer unless I really want to watch it. I don't know why (maybe a driver issue or dying hardware), but any kind of video takes a tragic performance hit on everything.

Page views lose value per user over time since the highest paying ads are frequency capped. So unfortunately being in the top 1% doesn't mean you generate additional ad revenue, in fact you may be costing us in additional server resources .

The video ads are typically higher paying though since they are more flexible than banner ads.

It seems that i get nsfw adds those days. I encountered 3 tonight (two of 'em i got the SS) which is linked here. I don't know the URL because i don't want to click them.

It seems that it's some "sex adds". There's some that are worse but i tend to refresh the page when i'm at work just in case.

I started to get "UPGRADE YOUR WHATSAPP NOW!" and "YOU'VE GOT A VIRUS ON YOUR PHONE!!!!" ads that try to open up stuff on my phone and make me press on shady links.
At first I thought it was something wrong with my phone or browser, but I only get these type of ads on here.

Is it possible to get rid of those? They are really annoying and make me not want to go on teamliquid on any mobile device.

Not sure if a screenshot will do anything in this case, but I'll add one later. It's not always, but often enough that it starts to get problematic(as I sometimes accidentally click that shit).

I've created an imgur album of the type of ads I get on teamliquid and what they link me to. Read from bottom to top. When I press "Ok", site automatically redirects to all that stuff. Different alarms sometimes, but pretty much same three destinations.
Seems they're trying to scam me out of info & agree to some payments. It's all in German, sorry.

http://imgur.com/a/T3eeK

In case this is important:

Standard Android 5.1.1
Galaxy S6 Edge
Vodafone(Germany) as Provider

I don't always get these ads, I noticed I mostly get them when trying to browse the forums, like in the last screenshot, I tried to open this thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/sc2-tournaments/507323-s2sl-season-1-2016-grand-finals

We've updated our ad category filters to remove ads that have References to Sex & Sexuality and Ringtones & Downloadables. Hopefully this should cut back on the mobile malware that's slipping in. Please keep reporting if you see anything bad!

I dont know where to post this exactly, hope this is ok.

I'm having a lot of issue with the flash ad player on Liquipedia sites under the right info bar.

For some reason my chrome on work laptop and stationary both have a tendency to get unresponsive as the ad loads, and often if i leave a Liquipedia page open it will crash flash after ~30 minutes. Right now i suddenly got a loud scratching noise, which apparently came from the same flash app. Guess the autoplay went nuts.

Anyway, dunno if it's just me. I run windows 7 on laptop with Chrome Version 50.0.2661.87 m. Home is win10, probably same chrome version. Im backend developer so i don't really know much about flash and the player (besides fuck flash) but if i can give any info that might help this issue, i'd be happy to help. I don't seem to have this issue on other sites.

Edit: Just tested again, this time in incognito. The O2 player chucked halfway through the video with lots of buffering, until it finally gave up and killed flash. I dont have problem with flash in general (more than, you know, flash sucks), so maybe its the O2 player? Almost looks like it have a memory leak or something.

Also, it seems sometimes (depending on site content?) i get a different player, this one from sekindo runs flawless, seems like its HTML5 so that makes sense. Any chance the O2 player could die? :D

Yeah the O2 player has a tendency to be really bad, we heard about that one before. Unfortunately it is not quite easy to filter a specific ad out, and the O2 player is used in multiple ads, but we are doing our best.

The liquipedia ads have been a problem for months, since the middle of last year or so to be honest. It's part of the reason why I stopped contributing.

I've no idea what is causing it because I tend to snap-close Liquiddota when it happens but there is an ad that is producing a large amount of loud static-style noise through Chrome occasionally.

Usually leave LiquidDota open during the day but I've started closing it now because it keeps happening and pumping static through the speakers at max volume. Not fun.

i've been getting this thing for 2-3 days now on random tl pages, while browsing:
"The XSS Filter has detected a potential XSS attack"
i hit "View unsafe content" and get this:

Just wanted to come back and say that at least for me these types of ads have stopped. So it seems that this has done the trick.

Excuse my low skills, but I'd like to report an ad that plays with audio, but I don't seem to have an inspect button when I right click on the add (using Firefox, and I don't seem to have those adds with Chrome). What can I do?

Had to stop whitelisting tl on firefox because the google ads were causing a script to break and firefox to slow down and crash.

Any advice rich?

I had the same problem and reported it here multiple times, but it got ignored for months on end, and thus i ended up installing adblock again just to be able to use TL.

I guess video ads are more important then forum users.

The audio ads are annoying; I leave the tab open, then after awhile I start hearing audio from an ad. It's very intrusive, and makes it not worthwhile to keep the ads open. I'll have to install an ad-blocker soon, or just stop using tl again, because it's really annoying to suddenly get a voice ad when I'm in the middle of a game in another tab. Not sure how to identify them.

I am experiencing the same thing. Majority of the time when I have a TLnet tab open and not browsing eventually audio starts playing out of nowhere after awhile and it's very disruptive or even scares me if I am not paying attention. And an ad just made noise just right now as I was making this post....

I hope this is the right place to ask? I don't want to use adblock on TL, but I am forced into it again and again by ads that slow down my browser and cause flash to crash, which entails even more slow browsing.
Am I the only one with these problems? Flash and Firefox are updated.

No, you are not. I have had the same problem for ages(and reported it in this thread), and thus had to turn on adblock on my laptop. Weirdly enough, it doesn't seem to be a problem on my desktop, maybe because that one is powerful enough to beat the slowdown.

If you want my advice: Don't wait for a solution, just turn on adblock. Maybe try again in half a year or so. There does not seem to be any will to fix this problem.

Setting Flash to click-to-run is a good workaround. You can then whitelist sites like Twitch while blocking most obnoxious Flash content.

Hopefully those screenshots can suffice. They pop out instantly after I go into a thread and they fill the entire screen with the ad. I had to zoom out of the page to press on the x on the ad which is really annoying.

Yes suicide squad is already on my to watch list no need to remind me ads

thanks

@neozxa, Thanks for this information! Are you still seeing this issue? If you are, can you copy/paste the entire parent div? While your screenshot does provide a lot of info, we still aren't able to identify the issue.

I get a very annoying set of ads these days on Liquipedia (Counter-Strike was the last one i noticed it on), where the page redirects me to https://millionaireincomeblueprint.com/?a_aid=12853&a_bid=a766f7e3-5615-43f9-89b4-14f8922f7190&a_cid=10234de2e6f27d457e03f2edfc1e57 . Can't really get the source of the ad since it redirects the page, and this is super annoying.

When browsing TL I frequentlyget really shiity flash ads that make continuous ajax requests. Today the culprit seems to make a lot of requests to adap.tv.

Full details is I'm browsing TL on windows 10 chrome Version 53.0.2785.89 m (64-bit). I've noticed this when browsing on my mac as well. I browse with no addons.

That or I have some malware that only affects me browsing TL?

I've attached a screenshot of my network tab in Chrome so you can see how many requests were made.

In the time I've taken to write this post it went up by another 300 requests and actually crashed Chrome investigator so I refreshed page and so I can't capture exactly which ad it was but this is a rather frequent problem. [image loading]

I've been getting many ads that slow/lag the browser. They are flash ads distributed by doubleclick. I don't see em right now, but if it happens I will link the code from it.

I occasionally get ads to buy a wife from Asia/Russia. Can I report those too?

So, something strange was happening with loading TL - I was getting ads that only showed up after I scrolled down that appeared to be coming from a little blob being served from TL, and which added about four or five SPANs after the call for mirror/footer.js calling back to an image encoded directly into the page using a data:image/png tag. Not excessively concerned, but after looking at the generated source I was a little concerned by the amount of inline script that seemed tied to an "adonis" label. (I hope this makes a lot more sense to someone like R1CH, as I am hopelessly out of date on most aspects of modern web design.) What made it strange was that I am not used to seeing "foo" used in code outside of most textbooks.

Because of that, I threw NoScript onto Firefox (the same source didn't produce strange SPANs in Chrome) and took another look at the generated source. And in this version, I see onmousedown calls to outbrain.com followed by a huge stack of divs and iframes.

The changed section is shown as image, spoilered below:

This is mostly just a sanity check - what's being served has some odd appearing language in it and links leading to things that concern me. (The Microsoft Surface ads didn't bother me.)

These are static ads that are served to adblock users. The inline code you're seeing is actually from your ad blocking software. Turn off adblock and it'll all go away .

Why are there videos? It's making my browser crawl! As I'm typing this, I get major "lag". I disabled AdBlock a long time ago to support you guys but videos that lag the browser are unacceptable. It's hard to even scroll up and down with all the "lag" caused by the video.

Once again, video ads are killing my browser. And the expanding ads mentioned above has happened to me before as well. I use Firefox, currently 50.1.0.

EDIT:

I just disabled AdBlock to see if I could report on which ads are causing this problem and it's just about every ad, both at the top right and bottom right. Ads from Mucinex, Samsung, and Mazda. Plus I got a video with audio for something car related as well, voiced by Sam Elliot.

It's out of control. It makes the site unusable. Even as I type this, I get major lag in my typing and I randomly lose focus on this textbox so I have to click the textbox so I can keep typing.

EDIT2:

Just so you're aware of the use case. I typically go to the front page and middle-click all the latest items in the Community News section. That opens multiple tabs. So it's not unusual for me to have five tabs opened while I'm sifting through the news. This, obviously, compounds the problem when each tab has an unusually high amount of processing going on.

Hmm, right now I have two tabs open, this one and another one for the front page that I just now opened. Even with AdBlock enabled, I got a video with audio, advertising Cirque Du Soleil with CHASE as a sponsor.

HTML for that video:

High CPU video ad:

+ Show Spoiler +
<video id="AVcontent" webkit-playsinline="" muted="" style="width: 100%; height: 100%; display: block; position: absolute; z-index: 0;" src="https://secure-ds.serving-sys.com/BurstingRes/Site-81421/WSFolders/8815347_2/assets/november_jewellery_300x250_logo.mp4"></video>


EDIT: My PC is Intel Xeon E3-1240 3.50GHz with 32 GB RAM. So I would not expect this kind of slowdown on a couple videos. But then I don't consider video ads acceptable on any website I visit regardless. Oh, and while typing this, I lost focus five times. Sorry, if I sound salty, but this is very frustrating.

We need a full screenshot as outlined at the top. Just the iframe makes it so much harder to locate.

Well, I've done what I can for the day. The "src=" URL's open up in a browser and you can see the ad there.

I would recommend using NoScript. In order to log-in you need teamliquid.net and ajax.googleapis.com. After you have logged in you can deactivate these scripts again and stay logged in as long as you dont delete cookies. To see spoilers you need teamliquid.net but you can deactivate that again after opening the spoiler.
Its the only way for me to visit teamliquid at all at the moment. I am browsing from an old and slow computer and the ads completely kill my browser. I get out-of-memory errors and such if I keep the ads enabled.

Hey guys I'm getting an ad from Reverb.com (an online market place for musical instruments) and it takes up a lot of the streams area.

Is it appearing inside or below the sidebar? The inside ad should be limited to 300x250, the larger format is only supposed to load below.

It's appearing inside the sidebar and it blocks the streamer hyperlinks. Sorry for not responding earlier, I completely forgot to check back if there were questions.

I get one of these ads covering the stream list nearly every time come to TL. Once I click through to anything they tend to go away. Let me know if I didn't capture the right code, as I'm not sure what you are looking for.

I'm getting these video ads that cause a lot of browser lag again, especially when there's multiple of them per page. They're not audio but they still are very annoying.

The ad is in the middle of the content for whatever reason, the threads text is behind the ad and therefor not readable.

Sounds like possible malware, our ads should never be covering content. Try a malwarebytes scan.

I'm consistently getting various ads that block the right Live Streams sidebar because of the height. Here is the latest one:

I have an older 19" 1280x1024 monitor (Samsung SyncMaster 940N) that I am viewing TeamLiquid on. These ads are blocking the Live Events box and the Live Streams box:

I am using Google Chrome 57.0.2987.133 and Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.14393 Build 14393.

[image loading]

Also not all ads block the live streams. The below ad is an example. It is a bit unsightly extending to the right, but still functional.

When I click inspect on an ad that doesn't overlap the streaming section, it doesn't have the resize_images2() tag on it. Only the ones that cover up functionality have it. Maybe that has something to do with it?

Thanks everyone for the reports, from the screenshots I was able to isolate this to an issue with the frontpage ad code and it should now be fixed. Please keep sending screenshots if you see similar issues on other parts of the site.

I've been getting a LOT of video ads lately.

Positioned right at the bottom of the right hand sidebar. And the ad is always too large for the adspace so you see the top 1/4 of a video and sound and you can't stop it from playing

:/

This is on chrome. Usually when I refresh while taking a 5 min break at work.

There is an ad from Dell on the right side. Here is the code

I don't have a screenshot of the ad itself, but it's from Dell computers about building something.

The audio is quite loud, and autoplays multiple times, at the same time.

Well I'm glad to know that TL isn't intentionally wanting me to go deaf. Still need to figure out how to get rid of these eardrumblasting ads though.

I know people have listed some here, but in the past few days I get an ad that plays audio really loudly for like 1 second then disables the sound. I have no idea which one it is or how to look it up.

There is an add right now on top of the page of a thread in general forum. Its at the top and when you want to click "general forum" button at the top to return to the menu then the add expands and trys to cover the button that you want to click in an attempt to get the click instead
This is very nasty add and kinda difficult to avoid clicking it though luckily I have managed thus far. I don't remember which add it was and I get different adds all the time but when it shows up again I will update this post.

Are the adds not being revieuwed before they are placed on the page?

Is this ad auto expanding or just if you hover it?

The ad auto-expands without hovering over it. This is the only thing I was able to find via the inspect tool.

edit: apparently those are the default adds you get when you active your browsers "do not track" feature. whitelisting liquipedia fixed it for me.

With pretty high confidence I can say that the following ad is associated with this problem:

Irony of ironies, I got that ad quite frequently while making this post.

Got this from "inspect element" but weirdly, no link.

So I just got one of those ads that essentially sent me to a site stating that I had "security issues with Microsoft" or some such. Is there a way to reveal which ad sent me there?

I don't know what's causing it, but I'm getting redirected to this site when browsing TL:

[image loading]

I know its not much to go on, but it just recently happened to me. I'm on a new MacBook as well, so it's a bit crazy. I'll update this post once I get more concrete info.

Thanks

more pics - currently recording my network log as well

Click ID - I'm assuming there's an ad that is injecting an auto click.
[image loading]

Error when I hit back.
[image loading]

Some how this ad knows I’m running the network Log recording, and won’t pop up when I turn it on lol; but will trigger when it’s off.. lol wtf



So this issue only seemed to happen when I was in Amsterdam?...

Including these two, and on mobile. It happens when I either land on the homepage or click open a thread.

Including a couple more that I’ve been able to capture

Don’t know if this one helps, I was able to go back before the redirect happened, then it just kept redirecting me afterward

R1CH, tomorrow when I get a chance, I'll record my network log on my phone, and see if I can finally find the source.

edit: Every time I try and track the source of the problem, it never seems to want to trigger the redirect...

I have a problem with the newest ad for the TL tech shirt.
It doubles the width of LD and TL on my phone. Exactly double the usual width.

Is that something that can be fixed or is it solely occurring on my end?

The other ad work the white shirt being promoted does the trick as well. But only when displayed at the bottom.

The Black baseball cap ad still does the trick for me.
The banner doesn't spread across the doubled screen anymore but it still causes the page to double in width.

As the instances of the ad breaking my layout are significantly fewer than before, I, personally, wouldn't put too much effort into fixing the problem. I can live with the layout breaking from time to time.

Earlier I had [1] open while watching GSL on Twitch in another tab, and came back to find a dodgy crypto advertising site which tried to mimic the BBC news website in the tab where [1] was.

Clearly some advert redirected me to the site (I hadn't previously used an adblocker in this browser, but I now have one installed to write this post safely)

The site I ended up on was "https://m-tgf.win/bbc", with some URL query params which I've removed in case they identify me in some way. The redirect was through a different site which I don't want to visit due to fears of malware; here's the redirect chain: https://imgur.com/a/BlfQQuF

Obviously this is pretty unacceptable for an ad to do. It's clear that the adverts on teamliquid.net can run potentially harmful JS, which kinda makes it unsafe to use TL without an adblocker.

Link to album with video ad screenshot plus screens of code. Hopefully I did this right.

Don't know if it's just me but I'm getting a very annoying mobile ad. It's for Braintree a PayPal service and keeps popping up on the right side of the screen. I click the x and sometimes it goes away and sometimes it doesn't regardless it just comes back almost immediately. Only happens on tl so don't think it's my phone.

Getting redirects from www.liveintents.com from tl.net and its sub-pages. Not sure what ad it's linked to, as my browser blocks the redirect, but it's still pretty annoying. Chrome built-in popup blocker is stopping the redirect for me, but not sure how other browsers react.

I get a lot of ads from TL that autoplay sound. It's not gamebreaking, but it's quite annoying. I am using adblock on almost every other website but TL, so I have no idea, how pervasive this is on the internet in general, but as you guys are saying in the header, you don't allow autoplay, so this is foul.

I keep getting randomly redirected (only while on TL) to a website saying my system is damaged and the system files will be automatically deleted unless I press an update button to "install the latest software". I assume it's an ad.

Oh, and it plays an obnoxious, persistent tone super loud.

This happens on mobile. This is a very intrusive ad...

EDIT: The Blue Apron ad. Grubhub is fine.

when I'm browsing the site on mobile I'm getting a microsoft surface ad that breaks out of the banner and sticks down at the bottom of the screen. it breaks the site making any button impossible to click on. The only thing I can do is refresh the page to do anything on the page.

I've been getting ads that hijack my browser the last couple days. They send me on a redirect train down to some scam site. Usually regarding mcafee or some nonsense.

Seems to only happen on the home page, haven't had it happen in the forums proper.

Happened a few times to me too, but only on Edge and not Firefox where I have ad-block, leading me to believe that the ad is definitely the culprit (in case anyone else experiencing this was concerned that maybe their computer had a virus or whatever) (still might tho btw).

This ad doesn't exactly go against the rules, nor did I remember to do all of the steps in the pin (sorry) but here it is:

I feel like it's sufficiently NSFW for it to not be a good fit for TL?

TL is the only site I visit on mobile that hits me with a "claim your free iphone!" Phishing popup from some xyz site. Goes right through blocker, only instance I've ever seen on any mobile site I've visited.

Hey guys, I know it's mostly not your issue because your ads come from google but it has come almost every time I come here that I get a known ad scam using unauthorized pictures from known people from my country. I already complained to google but they do literally jack.

Endeavor Health ads have made the site unusable on mobile. It’s a blue square border that steadily gets wider until it occupies the whole screen.

On mobile, this ad hijacks the site and redirects to their website. I can hit back to return to TL.net.

It only happens on TL.net, and Avira and Malwarebytes both seem to agree my phone is clean, so my next best guess is an ad that contains some exploit for Chrome on Android.

Just had the same ad on desktop: Linux, using Firefox. Hijacked the tab and sent me to this shitty webpage. I was even connected through Netskope, the company's network security thing.

Someone reported this orange thing on the previous page, 5 years ago. Pretty amazing if the same one is still there.
