Whats up with ZamFollow

As I have already explained in this thread, you can install ad blockers to any browser on the market that will take care of all the ads. These ad blockers are free and have been around for a long time. You are free to discuss how ZAM handles ads but keep the conspiracy theories of ZAM employees out of your posts.

There are actually methods to make a ad blocker detected by a website, and prohibit the use of the website until the adblocker is either disabled or the website is added to the 'white list'. This could actually solve some of ZAM's financial woes.

I'm sorry man , this site has become unbearable for " ME " . It's only this web site causing me problems. I cant even post on this site with out an ad blocking my screen so i can write a message. Ad's take up half my screen and I cant get rid of them. I use google chrome , I have Nortons antivirus Im good to go, like I said it's THIS WEB SITE ONLY. When I am playing EQ and I minimize my screen to check something on Alla, I get booted off EQ. Other times if I minimize screen or go back and forth for info , if I leave Alla running in the background too long I get Booted off EQ and A message comes up on the web page Error something .... What ever man, The point is something is wrong with this web site. What good is it if you cant navigate through it without ad's blocking half the screen , long load times, causing eq to to shut down , when you try to type anything in the search window you get garbled text cause something is causing a delay and half your key strokes arent registering. I mean its become real frustrating I actually threw my keyboard at my TV the other day. Its something done to this site within the last 4 months. Im not trying to stir drama here All I want is to access the info here that ive been able to do for 15 years with no problems till now. Im glad I held off on a subscription , cause it would be wasted money at this point. Im sending a Plea to whomever is in charge to fix this Please ? I dont need advise from anyone on how to change my comp or settingings to work around this sites problems. My equipment is fine. I am on a 150meg Fios network. I work for verizon and install Fios. I have a good setup here and can navigate and play anything with no problems Accept this site. Anyway im being repetitious now sorry, if this is how this site is going to be from now on, then as Trump says " Bye Bye " . Dont flame or attack me either, spend the energy on fixing this for the many loyal Zam users out there. I cant even proof read this F'kn message cause theres a Fkn ad in my way, I mean literally blocking half my message im writing blind on half my screen . Ads like Pet Plan, Pergo floors home depot, Whnn Las Vegas. I mean wtf move these ads somewhere so there not blocking half the screen
I understand some admins and some others here arent having this problem, but most of us arent schooled or educated in computer science and language that allows you to find a way to bypass these problems. The majority of us point and click our way through this site and for you all to expect the general public to have your knowledge is silly. Again as I am writing this ads are in my way, annnd I literly am haing a delay when im trying to type a message I aveto press keys andgive aew secs itto Edit i cant type because of the delay wtf

P.S. Ive been having problems for months , but now its like I cant even type on this site now, I literally have to press a key then count to 2 then press another key etc to form words. WTF is going on here. I go on another site eqresources.com and its a fkn dream. seriously wtf ?

Whoa, breathe.

I completely understand your frustrations. However, you are aiming hostility at this site when, as far as I can tell, not a whole lot of users are complaining about the issues you are having. People on here have only been trying to help you solve your issues. I have a paid account, so I don't experience any ads and cannot speak to that part of it. But I don't have any problems with this site specifically, and I always have it in the background when I am playing EQ. Obviously, there is something amiss, considering the issues you are describing. What people have been suggesting is just trouble-shooting, trying to get to the cause of the issues. I wish I could be of more help, but I am just a user.

And this isn't meant as an attack or flame.

You're using Chrome. You need to install Adblock Plus. Go to this link to install it. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/adblock-plus/cfhdojbkjhnklbpkdaibdccddilifddb?hl=en-US

You won't see any ads after you install it.

I'll pass along your complaint to someone at ZAM but they are busy working on their featured sites at the moment. There is a very long list of things that need to be fixed with this site and ads are on the list. Hopefully we'll see some resources to this site soon.

I am not technologically savvy. I am having the same problem as Nyquill, except I don't get kicked off eq. Can't type, zam black screens etc. One thing I have noticed if I hit report ad I can all the above with no trouble.

So, is there a reason you haven't loaded AdBlockPlus?
