Does the Samsung advert on MyGaming's home page annoy the crap out of you as well?

If that damn Samsung advert expands one more time, preventing me from navigating on MyGaming in order to shove some shitty overpriced phone's advert in my face, I'm installing an add-blocker.

Youtube's forced adverts is next on the list...

*Rant over*

Do you guys feel like this as well? We allow adds as a means of saying "thank you for the content" because we know that someone gets a few cents from it.. but the abuse of this, is getting on my nerves.

I disabled my adblock on MyGaming to support the site, but I haven't seen a Samsung ad at all. Not once. Neither have I seen a popup ad on this site. The only popups I have gotten so far are to ask if I want to take a MyG survey.

This is all I usually see. An ad right at the top, and a second one lower down.

I suffer from restless cursor syndrome (I randomly move the mouse around while viewing a site) so I've hit the "Hover here" button a few times. It doesn't irritate me that much, though. At least it disappears quickly unlike some ads I've seen that force you to click a close button before they go away.
 
Haha yes already enabled ad block again I don't mind ads but as soon as they flash or do shit like that I just block them or even disable the script.

Ah oky, I see. I skip the front page and come to the forums directly, so I haven't seen it. That is quite annoying though, hope they change it.

I don't think management can do much about it. It's a Samsung ad and they paid for it. And that is basically that.

The best course of action would then be to enable adblock on the main page of MyG only, but allow it on other parts like the forum.
Or just enable it everywhere, whatever floats your santa. :D

It doesn't feel right for me to enable it anywhere on MyGaming. But like I've said, it doesn't bother me that much so it's a non-issue. For me at least :D
 
Mini non-image ads on MyGaming are fine, but YouTube is an exception, sorry.

Is liking a video not enough. Mini pop-up ads, fine, non skippable on every video, Adblock.

Usually yes, but that's not the kind of adds I'm referring to at the moment
