Forgive me for saying this,but I have a problem here. I read that Ad Blocker Plus will cause the title page of the Summer Anime Guide problems. Why? I've used it for years. Why is it causing problems here and I hope at some point,they're fixed without having to turn it off? I hope you guys can figure it out.

I put your post here as it's feedback and not part of the discussions about the new season's shows.
A couple of points. 1. You're a subscriber, so you don't need to block ads at ANN. 2. Blocking ads may be desirable for a site's readers, but they're unhelpful to any site that relies on ad revenue to exist. Don't expect sites to assist you with your ad blocker. |

Forgive me,Errinundra. I didn't mean to cause you guys any problems. I was just wondering why this was happening,that's all. I wasn't trying to be nasty to you or anything like that. It's there because of a mistake I made a long time ago. A mistake I don't want to repeat. Sorry,if you think I'm being troublesome.

Yeah, we noticed this too. We're not going to put any effort into fixing it.
As tempting as it would be to intentionally break the website for adblock users, we've opted not to put any effort into anti-adblock efforts. We're thankful for every reader that visits ANN. But we're also not going to put any efforts into fixing the site for adblock users when adblock breaks it. As a subscriber, you can turn off all ads on ANN, so I suggest you turn off all the ads (or at least those you don't want) and then white-list ANN. As for why it's happening, I'm relatively positive that it's because the last season preview guide was sponsored, and someone working on the adblock filters is so offended by ads that they're blocking any images that might even have the words "sponsored by" on them. -t |

Well,Tempest. My Ad Blocker Plus is there for a reason. I made a mistake a long time ago and it's a mistake I don't want to repeat for the sake of my computer. Thing is,I never meant for it to cause trouble here. I hope that both you and Errinundra can understand that,OK?
