kmount Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Hi there, Ads are showing up as blocked with me supporting BSF a lot of the time. I'm not running any blocking/stuff. Is there an issue or am I spesh? 1
leco Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Is there an issue or am I spesh? If you are then so am I:) Only on some of the pages though most notably the one I open with - the front page! They also seem to take an age to downoad even when they will display - but that might be my laptop.
EduTech Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Yeah i have noticed this as well, but it is not on every page just a few although i do seem to still see all the Farcehost ads lol!! James.
kmount Posted May 9, 2009 Author Posted May 9, 2009 You're right, the inline ones seem ok too, but the main one across the main index of the forum never works.
Sylv3r Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 I see the Ads blocked page for 2 or 3 seconds before the google ads appears on the Main Forum page.
EduTech Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 I say one thing i did notice was that the page loads and then it takes ages to pull the add in, i am on a mac at the moment and that circle thingy goes round next to the mouse so i think it might just be struggling to pull the adds in from google, probably an issue with google not edugeek.

Same here - would they be coming from the ....woopra.net and 74. addresses?
EduTech Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Same here - would they be coming from the ....woopra.net and 74. addresses? Maybe, i'm not sure what ZH has got setup as if it having problems pulling in the ads then it will show a "your blocking ads message" as thats what is behind the ads them selves.
leco Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Maybe, i'm not sure what ZH has got setup as if it having problems pulling in the ads then it will show a "your blocking ads message" as thats what is behind the ads them selves. Oh yes I see the blocking ads message, but these addresses show in the status bar as the content is being pulled/pushed in.
kmount Posted May 9, 2009 Author Posted May 9, 2009 woopra, siteuptime, and 74.86.135.174 are making it slow to finish rendering the page for me atm and 67.228.180.66 now.

EduTech Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Oh yes I see the blocking ads message, but these addresses show in the status bar as the content is being pulled/pushed in. oh yeah sorry i never looked at the status bar but yes they are here as well.
ZeroHour Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Hmm interesting. It seems to have loaded fine for me but I will take a gander at what could be causing issues. Cheers 1
kmount Posted May 9, 2009 Author Posted May 9, 2009 Attached image, you get the blank ad with that odd line below it and then the BSF hatred afterwards. Ads on this page load fine (both in line on the first post) and the one above the thread itself. FF 3.0.10 on Linux.
FN-GM Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Maybe, i'm not sure what ZH has got setup as if it having problems pulling in the ads then it will show a "your blocking ads message" as thats what is behind the ads them selves. Is the message just a graphic? it is always there but it sits behind the adverts when they display. If they dont display you can see it.
EduTech Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Is the message just a graphic? it is always there but it sits behind the adverts when they display. If they dont display you can see it. The message i understand is just a graphic that sits behind the Ad, if the Ad does not show then your presented with the "your blocking ads....etc".
kmount Posted May 14, 2009 Author Posted May 14, 2009 This one's a little bit silly/jokey but it's not my fault!
leco Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 This one's a little bit silly/jokey but it's not my fault! I'm getting the Not Found message on a lot of the pages now - on the horizontal ones at the top. Something about the requested URL is not found on this server, can't quite read the message as it gets overwritten by the BSF one.

Dont quote me on this, but i believe ZH has been doing some work on the site this evening, if he is doing some work on the ad's due to the problems we have had the past few days then that is why your getting that. I am getting the same in IE and FF on various pages.
kmount Posted May 16, 2009 Author Posted May 16, 2009 Not quoting you but I've been getting that 404 for a few days

EduTech Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Not quoting you but I've been getting that 404 for a few days Maybe i am wrong.. most probably if you have been getting it for a few days now. i am sure he will sort it. sorry if i am wrong though.
