1080p No I mean this is news regarding Smoke and Mirrors. Among the various ideas behind starting it was to see if I could keep up with a weekly update schedule, to which the answer was a resounding ehhhh.
... did someone mention My Little Pony's Little Ponies somewhere recently, or something? I seem to have gotten a bunch of bookshelfing notices on it and new watches in the last week or so.
I'm just gonna change the "official" release day for new chapters to Fridays. I seem to have a lot more Monday and Wednesday busy-ness cropping up this time of year.
2697110 I guess so? I never ran into any on this site, but that might just have been luck.
2697112 The "please consider unblocking" message here guilted me into doing it, since I do practically live here and all. More than anything I'm pissed that the ad service refuses to deal with anyone who might even link a page with boobies on it, but feels free to pour this kind of filth onto their clients' pages.
2697116 Mmm... Back about half a year ago, I started hearing audio on FiMFiction's pages. Up to that point I'd just ignored the ads and didn't really care about them, but that was just too much, so I got ABP.
2697125 Understandable. My first, third, fifth and seventh Commandments for Web Design are "NO UNREQUESTED SOUND". Unless I misremember, I think there was a change of ad service between then and now, but as I said, I don't recall ever getting a video/audio ad on this site.
Too bad we don't still have Bad Dragon ads. They would have been a funnier choice for that group. (For you overly-sensitive types, no, I'm not gay-bashing. Hating someone because of their sexual preference is like hating puppies for being too cute.)
2697130 I would get those ads that are like extra cheesy infomercials. "Oh, no! You're so bad at life you forgot face-breathing! But don't worry, we have an all new, high-tech device that's totally not pulled directly from your bathroom... the mouth-plunger! It pushes new air in, and pulls old air out! It's great for babies!" You know, grade-A shit like that.
2697154 I liked the one about the parasite that's infected 5 out of every 4 Americans and causes every set of symptoms ever, including a worrying lack of symptoms, but is totes being kept secret by sinister forces powerful enough to suppress news of a global epidemic, but not enough to stop one guy from buying adspace all around the net.
2697161 I'm pretty sure that would be Pinkie's first reaction.
Followed by quietly looking the site back up after her friends went home...
2697198 Hehe, notable that when I went to look it up, the first three results are about how it's bullshit. The first such link includes the video, which is worth watching if you want to see a demo of every trick in the Basic Con Jobs for Dummies manual. I used to see these ads all over the place, including some where the video started autoplaying; for awhile it seemed almost as common as Lose Belly Fat With This One Weird Trick.
While we all obviously object to the term "Sexually Broken" (unless it's talking about child molesters and rapists, which raises a whole other set of questions), at least it's promoting love over hate, right?
what the fuck
2697102
Yeah, pretty much my reaction. Naturally, I don't blame FiMFic or anyone associated with it, in any way; but I just ain't having none'a that.
2697105 Are the video/sound ads gone, though?
2697105
I haven't unblocked ads because I kept getting adware a while back. I'm glad I made that decision.
edit: Posted to knighty's page
Apparently this isn't the only issue with ads right now.

Eep! I never had that kind of trouble from this site... that does seem like a rather more pressing problem than just some distasteful banner ads!
edit: why were you searching for 'douchebag'?

Ah, of course. I thought maybe you were just checking to see if you were surrounded by douchebags.

You done made me have to go look a reference up.

Now see that'd be an ad I have no objections to.
2697158 Ha! I made Pinkie Pie laugh! That just made my night.

So the title claims; I don't know the content of the book, though I can't say that I find the downloadable Study Guide for it very promising.

"HOW TO LOVE THE SEXUALLY BROKEN"
Sounds like a guide for people who can't get turned on by normal intercourse anymore. I wonder how many sexy rope tricks it contains.
I hope they shorten the LGBTGPJEVFWLA to officially include the "etc" part after three letters.

I must not be hip to the times because I honestly have no clue what half of this
stand for.
Yikes.
