Uuugh, more ads

[dolphinling]

Has anyone else seen a "900 NP Offer!" button under the yellow sidebar? It seems unobtrusive at first, but it's really distracting while I'm playing NQII.

It doesn't seem blockable by adblock, so if anyone wants, here's some userContent.css rules to hide it:

Code:

@-moz-document domain(neopets.com){
  #mb + form{display:none !important;}
}

(If you're still on Firefox 1.0, remove the first and third line. But you should upgrade anyway!)

Thank-you! I haven't had any problems with ads once I got Firefox up and running, there was one time that some weird sounds came through, but this has been annoying me for ages. It comes up when I restock and screws with the page layout, causing me to miss even trying to haggle on items.

Thanks Dolph! Makes refreshing at the money tree easier.

hmmmmmmm I must not have put the code in correctly, I am still getting that stupid 900np button

I put it under the other stuff on that css file.

Ta. Thanks for that

Browsing neo without the ads is a lot easier ^_^

I updated an am still having a problem with the BOTTOM 300 np offer. How do I get rid of that one?

Hmm... what's that? I've never seen it before. I get the idea it's only certain people, 'cause I only got the 900 one recently and it seems some people have had it for a while.

I think it's a 300NP-3x-a-day link from Yahoo that appears at random in the ad at the foot of some pages. I found if you click on the thing, even if you take the 900NP from "Your Items", you can get additional NP. Maybe that's a bug, or maybe it's TNT's way of finding out whether people ever read the ads.

Yesterday there was another 900NP link on the front page, but it's gone today. Nice to get 1800NP, though as I said, I was a little suspicious. Day before, or maybe two days before, it was on the Courses page at the Swashbuckling Academy and it also doubled the bonus. It *never* appears on a U13 account, which makes a certain someone in our house very jealous, even 900NP a day seems like a lot to some of us.

What's a U13 account?

I'm pretty sure it's under 13. (as in user age)

[Shoyru_Lover]

Yep that's correct. If you have an U13 account, there's certain places you can't go to.

Maybe a screenie and code can help.

Oh, haha, that's why I never see it. It's in the bottomban section, which I already have blocked.


Here's the code I'm currently using:

Code:

@-moz-document domain(neopets.com){
  div#ban{display:none;}
  div#bottomban{display:none;}
  td.tl > object{display:none;}
  #mb + form{display:none !important;}
}

div#ban is the top banner
div#bottomban is the bottom ad, which can be either square or apparently what you just posted
td.tl > object is the small one in the sidebar. There are a few that are img instead of object, and those get through, but they're for gormball and neomail, not ads
#mb + form is the button that was the point of this thread in the first place

The @-moz-document domain(neopets.com){ restricts it to neopets so it doesn't mess up other pages. As I said before, this won't work in Firefox 1.0, but if you're still using that you should upgrade to 1.5 anyway!

And that's my adblocking
