I find myself returning to this thread today because absolutely no page of PH will load without several seconds of waiting for the stupid, stupid adverts to load!
Ironically the ads that appear to be slowing the page load time this evening are PH's own "Test Drive The Octavia VRS" that are positioned 1/2 way down the thread on the right hand side.AlexRS2782 said:

Can't believe advertisers really pay to advertise on websites. It must be just about the least effective thing to do with investment. even those of us who aren't blocking or sometimes aren't (eg if using work computers or whatever), still don't really respond to adverts. I never even glance at them. I think most people are the same.
king irony: I use Adblock Plus. It switched on to the max.
Some sites now have a policy that if you are a subscriber you get the content ad-free anyway....or at least can continue to use an Adblocker. They then try and do something to detect the adblock systems and ask you to subscribe. It's a compromise I see coming.
But it's a war of escalation between adblock detectors and adblockers and the latest adblockers are usually ahead...

Switch to Ublock Origin - it's better and uses fewer resources.Some sites now have a policy that if you are a subscriber you get the content ad-free anyway....or at least can continue to use an Adblocker.

How are the likes of Speedhunters funded? They appear in the face of it to be plough quite a bit of cash into their content (it's all beautifully produced), yet the site is one of the cleanest 'commercial' ones out there.
I was curious..."Whilst it’s never been a secret, many of you are probably not aware that just over seven years ago, Speedhunters.com was launched by Electronic Arts (EA) as a way to support and enhance the Need for Speed franchise."
