Forums - Website Topics - Hate the AutoPlay with Audio Ads...Anyone else?

@pokeclaude, problem is, I'm always listening to music while I'm on the internet. I hate having to pause the song, mute, etc. It's at the point where I'm literally avoiding this site, closing tabs the second I hear the ads, etc.

Ads I can and will tolerate. I don't use Adblock. But when they're this intrusive, it's...well, it's a big deterrent for coming here.



Crusty VGchartz old timer who sporadically returns & posts. Let's debate nebulous shit and expand our perpectives. Or whatever.

OK... i think ioi already said this but please dont
the ad's are what keep this site running but at the same time i do wish they would at least be able to be muted.

Use an ad blocker plug-in for your web browser. Annoying ads are bullshit.

If I didn't see this thread there was about to be another one made...
So annoying. They make me not want to browse the site anymore.
It's so bad they have 2 autoplay audio ads playing at the same time sometimes. Makes no sense.
This used to be a friendly site when I first started coming here. I could hang out and browse.
Now it's like get in check a few things and leave as soon as possible. Or not bother to come at all.



Yeah, this is getting very annoying. VGC is already plastered with more flash ads than a porn site and now we have unmutable video ads as well. I hope VGC is rolling in $$$ because all the ads are really ruining the experience of coming here.

Just use an adblocker.



firefox ad blocker to the rescue



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

They make me feel like somebody is actually talking to me.


I'm so lonely.



Why should we have to use an adblocker? This is the ONLY site I visit that has these kinds of ads. I'll go to some other site that doesn't have obnoxious ads airing everytime you load a page, before I try to go fix a problem that again ONLY occurs on this site.



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

I have no problem supporting this site, allowing noscript to lead these ads run. But these autoplay ads + these auto-enlarge take over half the thread ads will keep me stopping all the scripts.

Once this mess is dealt with Ill turn no-script back off.
