can advertisements be blocked?

Is there a setting somewhere to block the banners and advertisements? I assume that it's impossible as that helps pay for the site but they are killing my data plan. Juz thought I would ask.

I don't get the Google ads on my phone - only the banner ads that are paid for by members. Since those are actually a part of the site, I don't think there is a way to block them.

I use a program called Ad Muncher...pretty sure there are other ad blocking programs as well. Works well for me

Does that take out the paid banner ads, or just the google ads?

The only thing I see is "Your ad could be here" and "SerpenCo" under that on the right side....nothing else shows up =)

It's been a while since I blocked ads, and I think at that time I specifically blocked Google ads.
I just switched browsers on my phone, due to recurrent posting issues (only on this site)...Google ads are back. I tried looking for an ad blocking app; but the only one that claimed to block anything other than ads embedded in other apps was for rooted phones only. (I don't know what that means, but apparently I don't have one, lol - the app wouldn't work...said it couldn't find the root.)

Hmm, well tell me now, why exactly do you THINK I am running ads here on this site?

Well, sure, I can remove the ads for you all. And I might just as well shut down FaunaClassifieds while I am at it because it's no longer going to be financially viable for me to run it....

Is that what you all want?

I am in the same boat. I haven't the foggiest what rooted means.

Lol. I understand the concept but was wondering if there was an option to block some. I have 33 mb a day and I used 86 mb today. I may just have to up my data...

Seriously, would you pay to advertise here if all of the members could block your paid advertising at will via a function I provide for them to do that?
