Title: Blocking obnoxious VMC advertising Post by: God9394 on July 21, 2013, 10:02:45 AM Why are only certain users allowed to block obnoxious advertising like the VMC ones. I am fine with text but images (even if images were created with CSS) gets very annoying.

I don't mind them, though. Visual filters are easiest to set up and maintain. :)
ETA: Their ad happened to come up on posting, though... looks pretty mild. Nice non-offensive colors, smallish text.
