This site.

I maybe one of those people who come onto the site to look at images only. I just don't like the appeal of the advertisements on the page. I have a very twitchy mouse and I have a feeling that I will click on one and my computer would be messed up from clicking on the advertisement. I know this site does run by the ad revenue and I like that. But the fact that these ads are very easily clicked on and there is no way to tell if they have malware that could seriously mess up your computer.

So I am going to be very cautious about saying this. I may have to go elsewhere to find decent images. Like danbooru; which personally sucks because I love this site. I just don't like the intrusive ads that make me feel like I could be attacked by an unknown source because of them.

Thanks god you were big help. I mean since last week these banner started to pop up even though I have adblock installed on and I don't know how it is possible but you can still view ugly dick banners even though you block them. I did what you said by going to my account settings > options and only removed the tick from "banner ads" and left the other two alone and now the site has been back to its original clean state which makes me very happy. Thank you again!

PS: I am ashamed because I didn't knew that there were options like that even though I'm member on this site since 2009 lol.

If you want to truly be fair to Gelb, you would probably want to donate at least $1 (+tax) to their Patreon before downloading Adblock. It's not much, and you'd feel good for at least making a small contribution to its maintenance and development. The link is up at the red notice on the top of the page.

Let me guess, you're not allowed to use scissors.

Or stop being a leech and accept the fact the site needs to get revenue from somewhere to stay online? Or do you feel entitled to use a service and not pay for it?
