OT: Back On The Air
- Thread starter bustamente

I would never EVER ignore you!Nooooo , then you won't see any of my posts.
The site, since it has returned, has been working the best it ever has for me. And, even though I'm not a sponsor/subscriber and don't have an ad blocker, I'm not seeing any ads. (I imagine that will eventually change though.)
My understanding is that they upgraded the software for the web site and it did not take well, as you suggested. When they tried to fix it, things did not go well, and when they tried to reboot it, that's when the real problems started. As I have said, things were fine until they started tinkering with it, kind of like Windows. Should have waited until the summer when it would have been less impactful. But as they say, hindsight is 20/20...
My guess, they were trying to implement more ads, and that's what broke it.
Yup it's the ads that slows the site down even with or without an ad blocker, for sure they will be back but for the time being enjoy a site that works really well.

I would give it some consideration ...........

Just now, I used the "Contact us" button at the bottom of the page to explain the problem. They responded immediately and all is fixed.
Just wondering, for the ones that are sponsors do we all get a couple of extra days past our renewal date for free because of the shutdown? Yes i'm a Winnipeg'er and i like deals.
I see you have your sponsor tag back. I haven't got mine but I'm not getting the ads. So have I got my sponsorship or don't I?
I used the "Contact us" button at the bottom of the screen to report the situation and they responded immediately - and were most generous in their response.
Imagine raw-dogging the internet and seeing all of the ads
Y'all need some uBlock Origin, stat!
It makes this site really difficult to use on mobile.
I can assure you I will not be using hotels.com because I accidentally clicked on their garbage ad on this site. Quite the opposite, LOL.
uBlock Origin Lite for Chrome/Edge now.Imagine raw-dogging the internet and seeing all of the ads

I was having this issue as well.

I have found that it now works when you post a saved GIF instead of trying to link to it from a URL, a feature that previously didn't work well LOL
I like navigating this site on my laptop with an adblocker. It's great, except when people post Twitter links, and they get blocked so you have to navigate them off site.Imagine raw-dogging the internet and seeing all of the ads

But no ads here.
I bailed on Chromium browsers a long time ago, but most people should consider this with them removing uBlock imo. Unsure what the Lite version doesn't have, hopefully it's fairly comparable!
Firefox mobile w/ uBlock is great for mobile viewing if you're not on a laptop/pc. I find ads so intrusive these days... I can't stand the incessant advertising everywhere you look
I don't mind paying 17 bucks for no adds for a year of entertainment. But they better not do anymore upgrades unless it's August.I bailed on Chromium browsers a long time ago, but most people should consider this with them removing uBlock imo.

Agreed.
I have an adblocker but I think the annual fee is cheap considering what you get nowadays for under 20 bucks.
