    Years ago I whitelisted CodeProject in my ad blocker. However, I just got so fed up of the flashing ads distracting me while I was trying to read an article that I enabled ad blocking again. I now feel a little bit dirty and guilty ... but I also feel calmer and more able to relax and simply read stuff. That's what I come here for. @chris-maunder, if you undertake to make sure that ads are not flashy and distracting then let us know and I will chain up the ad blocking rottweiler again.

      Are you sure you write to the right page :confused:Ok, maybe my eyes got that bad with the years that I don't realize it... in that case this would be the "natural ad blocker", I think I will copyright that word/phrase :)

      It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question

        We have a policy in place that doesn't allow anything overly annoying. Our tolerance level may be different than yours, so your mileage may vary. In any case, we appreciate the gesture. These servers don't pay for themselves.

        cheers Chris Maunder
