If you're not using Adblock then you're helping this site stay alive.

^If people keep harassing me on this site without mods stepping in to defend me, then why should I care? :O

Noscript master race.

Essentially letting essential most trusted ad services through (at the users' descretion) and blocking everything else by default.

It isn't perfect though, as ad services have been known to sneak in malware (by accident or otherwise) weeks or months after Gelbooru started using them.

It should block scripts that run without ads as well... as it literally blocks... everything.

I've been monitoring the ads the best I can, but am not receiving anything malicious from them. I'll pull them tomorrow if you are still getting the notices.

It hit 3 times simultaneously from something from that advertiser embedded in your site's pages, despite me using noscript, ghostery, adblock plus, and disconnect me simultaneously, the offending script/domain thing slipped through, and when I tried to prevent it from happening again with the add-ons, I couldn't add it to my security add-ons because if it isn't specific enough it won't work, also for some reason its not very easy to just manually add stuff to most of these add-ons like noscript, anyways I just opened up this link straight from google search, gelbooru.com/index.php?pa...;tags=redhead&pid=252
and instantly I got bombarded, were it not for my Malwarebytes real-time protection, there is no telling what might have happened. When I started up my computer again earlier today after I modified my hosts file with MVPS and came back to this site, Malwarebytes didnt register the malicious IP again, perhaps this domain was included among the blocked ones in my new MVPS hosts file, but I shouldn't have to worry about keeping up pace with unscrupulous dangerous advertisers whom don't give a shit about cyber security and only about money, potentially even turning a blind-eye intentionally as long as they stuff their pockets. I advise you either complain to your advertiser or get another new one, because this current one links to a dangerous place and many folks whom are not cyber savvy are at great risk potentially, even myself despite being somewhat savvy was only saved thanks to a premium product I use. Fix this somehow, patch the holes or change advertisers, something, people's systems and private data are at risk.
