Okay I just saw the same ad in 3 boxes lol. I'm guessing they bought 3 ad slots.

    As per that thread, the highest count was 4. Try to see if you can see 5 or 6 ads.

  • Corey, if you want some free ads banner, I will give it to you for free

    adblock uses domains; if you use IPs, it will bypass several blocks

  • Why would you use IP in the first place?

    Depends. Adblock for Chrome appears to depend more on CSS styles.

  • Adblock rarely blocks ads hosted on the actual website's server, as opposed to Google et al.

    Never really thought about this before, for those that use ad blockers, does it just hide it or something else? I am thinking about the missed impressions as that is generally how ad are sold. So either impressions are reduced or still counted but the ads are never seen by that/those people?

  • I too have seen URpad ads 3 at a time, Many a time, so its not new.

  • @netomx said: adblock uses domains; if you use IPs, it will bypass several blocks

    I'm using adblock +

  • Never saw any ads, sup Adblock+.

    Adblock Plus for Chrome blocks the HTTP requests (this is apparently a feature of the Chrome extension framework, as it yields a "blocked by extension page") and then hides the element that displays this request (such as an iframe). Basically the ads were never loaded in the first place, and the error is hidden.

    @joepie91 - Cheers, makes sense.
