Guess I've been noticing it for a while but I finally narrowed it down to me having this problem with the board. Doesn't happen on the main part of the forum but when I'm looking at a particular thread (or starting my own) I will hear an audio ad playing. It's separate from the ad at the bottom of the page but it's definitely playing while I'm on DFW Stangs as I will either close the tab or go back to the previous page and it stops playing. Can't say it's occurring on all my computers as I'm mostly just on the one (work laptop) with audio on but it's getting really annoying. Anybody else getting this?

giving uBlock a try... thanks for the tip, Crewz. I'll see how it compares

AdBlock uses a regex style engine to filter content on sites, the more things that they add to the list the slower pages will load regardless of your hardware. You cant increase single thread processing to go any faster then whatever the max speed of a single core is, AdBlock requires more ram and CPU to process pages which nets you a slower browsing experience, its pretty well documented.
uBlock vs. ABP: efficiency compared
Who cares about efficiency, I have a fast CPU and a lot of RAM
I'm not trying to be a know it all prick, this is the shit i do for a living, technically the opposite, I work for ad delivery.

bookface seems much faster... I don't use it a ton, partly because it's slow as fugk on my computer, which I attributed to adblock having to block so much chit.
Thanks for the tip

Can you guys tell if they are at the top or bottom of the page? These fucking ad companies are shady as hell, I think tapatalk is also to blame, when I hit the site on my phone, 1 out of 20 times or so it opens the app store and trys to get me to buy an app, some bullshit. Google adsense is legit but they booted us, it's bing and yahoo now, and they are not on the up and up.Interested in being a VIP member and donating to the site?
