Server Wobbles

[mkrudden]

Blues,

Recently you might have noticed our site has been a bit, er, 'wobbly'.

Our traffic has gone up every year without fail for 10 consecutive years and this has been our busiest month ever.

Unfortunately, our advertising revenue that helps keep our fees in check is nose diving because of Adblock - recently Android joined iOS in allowing Adblock on their browsers.

Simply then, we can't afford a better server - the cost wouldn't be sustainable.

So please, if you haven't, play the game and exclude us from Adblock. We work hard to ensure our adverts don't take the piss/aren't intrusive.

Or, upgrade your account for the cost of a pint and have all your adverts removed. Other ways to help us out are here.

Thanks a lot.


Instructions
(Instructions may vary depending on the adblock software and version you run, please reply if you're unsure)

1. Click on the Adblock Icon (Usually top right of your browser)

2. Click 'Don't run on pages on this domain' (Or, 'Add to Whitelist' or 'Exclude Adblock on this domain)

3. Finally, confirm your option

Genuine apologies for not subscribing earlier. Just paid this second.

Not at all mate, subscriptions are donations and hugely appreciated whenever. Thanks a lot.

The main thing is the adblockers, if everyone disabled it we wouldn't need subscriptions

As is, more people than not visit an block our adverts, so it leaves a void.

Absolutely no chance. The adverts play videos which I've reported to you and NOTHING has been done.

* I use Chrome on an iPhone and can't block your adverts sadly

* unblocked on my MACBOOK and IPAD too as a show of support

Yeah to be fair haven't got around to blocking those rogue ones yet, will do.

For anyone else, if you see an advert that is annoying, tell us an we block them.

Nice one. To be fair the advert set up now is a good balance. Hopefully generates the clicks you need.

We should make a rule. Every time someone attacks davek you have to click an advert into a new tab.

One click let it open you dont have to read the advert its classed as being looked at -its not rocket science!

[Joey66]
