Someone was NOT frozen for ad blocking

I don't use it, but I don't see how they can tell if you use an auto-refresher unless your refreshing multiple times on multiple pages or if you are refreshing at an impossible rate(IE once every half second or something)

How would they be able to tell if your using an ad blocker because arent the ads still really there?

I wonder, will they ever come out with software just for Neopets? Like, upgrades and stuff? That'll be how they make money.

I posted this in http://www.pinkpt.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14085 (page 5). This COULD be a way they are doing it.

Wow. Nice work i must say.

Less ads i guess... TNT are really going too far this time. Guess we have to do it ourselves.

However, is it counted as cheating? Will we get frozen for this ?

Thanks

And no, this is definately not considered cheating. TNT have no way of finding out that you are blocking the ads. If I were you though, I wouldn't tell the Neoboards that you block the ads, or mention it on the site at all, since TNT are giving warnings to users that tell others how to block the ads. But otherwise, they have no way of konwing that you block the ads.

Besides, even the great Adam himself told us at PPT that we should use Firefox to not show the ads I'm serious

Not to scare anyone, but it is POSSIBLE for neopets to track ads. The ads could be in an iframe that is at http://www.neopets.com/someadtrackingpage.phtml. Whenever you access that page, the ads in table 'personal' could be increased, and that could be compared to the number of pages visited. Of course, Neopets probably would never do this, as it would result in mass freezing, and would decrease their rank in sites to advertise in .

Oh. and the "Of course, Neopets probably would never do this". Ignore that

Because it is highly unlikely that a human being can refresh on exactly the point (to the millisecond), of, for instance, every fifth second. It's nigh on impossible to do this for a minute, let alone several hours.
