I would remind you that this is a free site, because it is advertising-supported. Viewing -- and occasionally clicking on -- the ads helps keep it that way. Any technology used to subvert this can and does interfere with site functionality and is not condoned. Thank you
This is a tricky one. I do use AdBlock. There is, however, a facility for suspending it for individual sites. I was so asked to do on the Rain Alarm website and have done so. But on Rain Alarm the ads are not obtrusive; they simply appear on the RHS of the screen in a column and do not interfere with the viewing. Now I have noted our Administrator's comments - and I do really enjoy Pprune - I will suspend AdBlock on Pprune and see if they are so intrusive that they interfere with my viewing.
