What's the deal with the GIGANTIC video ads I've been getting on the site recently?

It's punishment because nobody has made this a real thing.

It's your penance for not using adblock. Also, tell Bunni, I don't think posting in this thread will do a whole lot.

I don't run any adblockers on IMFDb, but yet I still don't see ads.

On a side note, why doesn't Bunni ever pop in and socialize? Is he ashamed of us? You're ashamed of us, aren't you, Chris?

The biggest variable on whether you see the adds (in my experience) is what skin you are using. IIRC correctly the adds only appear if you use the default skin (Vector), but if you use a different skin they don't (I use the skin titled "PageTarget061714" a don't get any adds or the white spaces that some people get with add blockers).

I run Adblock Plus and Noscript, so my main issue is giving a site back enough bits of itself that it works all rather than getting ads.
