BLOCKING ADS? WELL PLAYED...
Sort:
I have addblockerplus and it has blocked adds for a few years, now it seems to have stopped working and the adds interfere with the game particularly bughouse chess- the adds cover part of the board. I did not even know I was playing bughouse- I still won but did not know what was going on. Cant play bughouse with the adds.

you can block specific item with ABP
I am probably just going to quit chess.com! because that is really the only solution for me. I am sick of these ads.
It seems the adds are blocked some days and not blocked other days, same with TV shows online, I think it blocks some adds or commercials and not others. It may have to do with how the adds are made

I much prefer uBlock Origin over ABP.
Still, if advertisement had no impact on my decision to buy, they wasted money.
I've done some work with marketing companies. A few things:
- they are never entirely sure what advertising is effective and what not. Usually a big promotion invvolves all sorts of media - you can't always connect the dots between the advertising and the sale. (...)
Sure. My point was rather than advertising, as a whole, is not exclusively an efficient way of burning money. If it was, some companies would do zero of it and spare it.
Hence, companies will only run ads with a success probability / cost ratio higher than some nonzero value (to be determined by company meetings or voodoo magic). Users with adblockers have a lower the numerator (less likely to buy because of ads) and a higher denominator (need a way to circumvent adblocking) compared to regular users, so I guess it is a bad target audience until a large majority of users are using ad blockers.
