Hello there and welcome to my profile, I work with technology in ICT. So is there anything I can help you with today? Information about Games, HTML, Movie info, Normal TV-Series or something else perhaps? I also have opportunities to help with ModDB profilers backgrounds and music, if there is anything send me a PM.

Gaming sites need your support.

ModDB is a very large website that many people like because of so much good on this page. But like any other gaming sites that need the money to keep the website up.
More than 50% visiting ModDB use Adblock making it difficult for ModDB, but it is possible for you to help the website. For more information about this click here: Moddb.com
I've never actually used any adblocker ever, and frankly MODDB's ads are some of the more tolerable ones; they never bothered me at all.
However, other sites do have those kinds of annoying **** ton of ads that I was starting to consider trying a blocker.
Anyway, I went to FairBlocker's link but there was a message that the project is currently on hold :(
any idea what's going on?
Moddb Ads have always bothered me. It's not Moddb's fault, though.
Auto playing ads that blow my ears out and make my heart nearly jump out of my chest with loud sounds.
Ads that cover the entire screen on almost every page.
Tons and tons of video ads that stream in HD that bog the page down nearly to a crawl on my machine.
Back a year or so ago, I HAD to use Adblocker on Moddb, otherwise I couldn't even use the ******* website it was that bad.
None of these are Moddb's fault, though. It's the company they use for their ads. They slip in those ads almost intentionally, and they can't do anything about it other then take them out and report it to the company. They can't prevent them from actually happening.
At the time, they also had ads on people's profiles which I didn't really think was fair, they'd be making revenue off of someone else's content that was free and were making no money off of. On the game/mod profiles it's okay, because that's like 99% of the website, you can't not put ads on that. But on the profiles was just a bit much...
They have removed that to a degree, though.
I have been considering unblocking Moddb, I think I'll go ahead and give it a shot...
Well I gave money to the site. I use other ad-blocking software still though.
