I have not seen that. What post? Are you using an Ad blocker of any kind?


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

Its all in an effort to make the FBBO crowd heads explode. They do nothing but moan and [censored] about this forum.

Owner makes money from the ads.

Making money is super great.

So: Ads are super great.

No changes on Ads in years

On a desk top infolink box at the bottom of the page and sometimes an ad above the board pages but not always
No changes and the only reason i switched to infolinks years ago was because the Google ads were popping
up everywhere and I had no control over them so I pulled them

??? Why do you want to delete it ... mine has blocked over 189,000 ads on this site alone. I'd say that's a good thing !!

Because it shows up on every page change, I hate IT rant
This is the second Adblock add that was installed on my desk top due to having issues with my computer that required taking it back to the store I bought it from, they fix the computer but the original Adblock program was removed along with all my favorites on its memory whiney shruggy
Adblock wants to charge now and I don't want to pay for it blush whistling
Any recommendations for a good free add blocker now help grin
Info links is driving me crazy on here now after removing the Adblocker + program whiney work shruggy

I use Adblock Plus. It is free. When an ad loads, right click it and hit "Block Element". It will remember it and will block the ad thereafter. It is a browser extension. Nothing should be installed on the desktop. There is a place in "options" where you need to uncheck "show acceptable ads".
