Wait, Facepunch has pop-ups now?
You have popups on Facepunch? Hell, I don't even see ads, and I have no ad blockers. I think your problem is a virus or the like, not Facepunch. Unless you're talking about the new message popups and then you should stop complaining because being popular is okay.

adblockplus + noscript = no ads ever again.

If you login you don't get ads i thought :/
i don't have abp installed on this pc. and i have 0 banners/popups/messages etc on facepunch. i guess you have a virus. just to be sure scan your pc with your normal virus-scanner and then scan it with malwarebytes [editline]11:47PM[/editline] what kind of popups do you get?
I occasionally get ads on Firefox when logged in but usually no more than once or twice a day. And no I don't use ABP because I'd like the sites I frequent to actually make money if they are just the ads where you only have to view them.
What Pop Ups?
Google Chrome.
you can't they're forever irreversible or you have cancer

Nothing different except Bing has more features and looks different.
When I read "Facepunch pop up" I thought you ment something like a scary face popping up with the screaming. Instead of a scary face, it's the Facepunch Logo. That'll give me nightmares...:ohdear:
fuck why can't people do a simple google search?
Facepunch pop us only occur when your not logged in. Log in, problem solved. :eng101:
[QUOTE=toaster468;24947444]it is client side only so its not like they can tell so the website is still making money, right?[/QUOTE] Certain ad-types report to the ad company every time the ad is loaded rather than everytime it's clicked on.
I have never seen ads on facepunch, how does garry get money? even logged out I don't see ads.
I didn't know?
[QUOTE=Panda X;24947608]APNG isn't a standard format.[/QUOTE] Standard or not, it's still a nice feature to have. Benchmark wise, it's going to be a better idea to go with Chrome or Opera. The next iteration might be different, I've yet to check.
I only get that ad thing when I'm not logged in. Not talking about a popup.
Just sign-in once you get on the site. You shouldn't get them when you're logged in.
