Simple question about ad blocker . I use a iPad Pro and I need to know how to disable Adblock ear so I can get at least 2 two clean white pages. That way I can fully use the features on this forum. I’m computer challenged! Ugh! Thanks in advanced.

You may not be able to...this forum has some spammy/malicious trackers that many modern browsers block automatically. I gave up trying to figure out which of the dozens were mandatory and just leave everything blocked, and firing up a private tab with shields disabled if I need to post an attachment etc.
I've used plenty of other XenForo-based forums that weren't anywhere near this inundated, so maybe someone can convince the admins to dial things back a bit...

Yep I have spoken to Sal about it, it really is annoying how many ads bombard you on a mobile device.

It's not just mobile devices. My laptop gets bombarded with another account that I monitor, which is free like most. I even see offers to view the preposterous preoccupation of the US adult male. Ha hah. If I keep Adblock Plus on, then I can't view my own album or any others. They are treated like popup ads evidently. Really annoying.

I too find the aggressive adblocking annoying as well. If/when I post pics here, they're always linked from imgur or similar. On the rare occasion I do need to see something posted and hosted here, I'll open an incognito window with the filters disabled.
Generally in firefox I see practically no ads here with ublock origin. There is some network wide filtering enabled on the dns server (I run a local dns server) using various block lists.
Vivaldi browser is used on the tablet that has its own ad/tracking blocking built in. I see a few more ads there.
ymmv.

I paid $100 and it has made zero difference to the amount of ads i am bombarded with, so your statement is incorrect...

I have an adblocker running on my whole house thanks to pihole. before, I would not get ads, but it wouldn't let me see photos or search, with the same " 2 clear pages" message. Now that I paid, I get no ads and I can browse and search normally.

I'd given up on figuring out which default browser features were tripping up the adblock logic, when I noticed the "2 page views required" message jumped to 91. Then at some point the page views started incrementing, but not every page I browsed, only every handful.
Ignored it for a few weeks but today I hit it and the message disappeared...so I guess the site works on Brave browser now.
