Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian
The Unobstructed View
we're going to Hamsterdam for the Summer !!
I've noticed that, even for forum supporters, there are adverts on the main page of the forum.
Any change of having a second tier where I can pay a bit more to avoid ads altogether @GrandOldTeam ?

atm, I am not using any adblockers, but rather a Swiss VPN, to watch a specific show on netflix, and that banner again pops up, your system is kaput....sorry

what's wrong with using a vpn doe
It really isn't, sorry.
As I've explained to you before, the banner doesn't update realtime.
It updates every 30, 45, or 1 hour after the last check.
One system checks if ad blocking. This then allocates a usergroup. Clear or adblock.
One system runs a check every x minutes to update the user banners. Those within adblock usergroup, is given a banner.
As above, you keep switching between them.

sure, but this vpn does the adblocking by itself, I don't have any adblocker on....
For a small monthly fee you can make the red banner go away.
So the system isn't kaput is it?
Whether its an adblocker, privacy blocker or VPN blocker - its still blocking ads.
Adblocking Slimeball is a temporary thing to make it visible to people they have something blocking ads because a lot of people seemed to not know they were.
"I've disabled adblock?" "Oh? ghostery also blocks ads? Didnt realise but thanks to that red banner of shame, I've made amends"
Thanks mate.
The intention/motivation there is to largely just 'count'. So I can show potential advertisers potential numbers but it should just be that main page side ad that shouldnt get in the way.
Next time I do a update though I'll just remove that entirely from forum supporters.

system may still be kaput. I am now on mobile for like three or four hours and counting, and defo there is no blocker on my phone, and I always see them (ads)
atm:
You said it automatically checks every 30 min or an hour to change status, and it still didn't disappear. When was the last time I allegedly blocked ads acc. your data?

As for upgrading, I don't have any credit cards or debit cards. I used to have debit cards from Italy and Croatia since I lived there but them cards are not active anymore I'm afraid. So cannot match them via paypal. I never shop online for this very reason.
Otherwise £20 is nothing amount. I would if I could.
As for the banner, its a great idea if it was working great, to be able to generate some revenue of some sort for Dan, but even though I see ads all over the shop, it stil lists me as a blocker, which is wrong.

Getting a sense of Déjà vu here mate! lol
You said this last time before I demonstrated;
If the user banner shows, it's because at some point within the previous hour - you've had something on a device logged into the account thats blocked an ad somewhere.
If your PC is blocking ads, it'll effect your account even if you browse on a phone.
I'm 99.9% sure it's a local issue - just like the other week with the adblocker you "forgot to turn off" like the other week you mentioned, or a VPN/privacy feature - it's definitely works
Like last time, its a useful banner because it helps demonstrate to people who might otherwise not be aware theyve got something blocking ads.
Wouldn't stress the banner, it's tongue in cheek. Some people have to have adblock on for work etc. I'm removing it in the coming weeks.
