So, here we go again. After working almost perfectly for a while, with just some minor AdBrite-bugs... we're back to it again. 99 out of a 100 times, I need to reload the page once and up to five or six time before the content below the logo is shown. And as usual, it's failing to load beyond AdBrite. This is ridiculous, you cannot have a ad-partner that destroys the performance of the entire site.

Fascinating way to look at things. The user should make changes to his daily routines to make up for the fact that Buzzerbeater has a partner with defective technology?

For one, I would never use Adblock as I make my living at the marketing department of a newspaper... it would be committing ethical and practical professional suicide...

And changing my browser from Chrome? Come on now. Buzzerbeater should have a chat with Adbrite and make sure that they leave the 20th century behind and update to a relevant product. I for one will never click an add at this site until it starts working, and I might even get fed up with the entire service if I must continue hitting the reload again, again and again. And again.

Without a doubt, the most effective way of killing ads..

Haha. Yeah, it sure is. But should I support BuzzerBeater, if they choose to ignore me as a user and the major flaws that their service indirectly has through their partnership with Adbrite? Doubtful. It is a shame though, because besides this... they have been doing an impressive job.
