Answer 21

Stop it @AnswerMyQuestions

Answer 22

So it doesn't block the ads?

Answer 23

You're supposed to subscribe to OpenStudy, you can't tell someone to Install adblock...

Answer 24

@Rainbow_dashie You have adblock but it doesn't block the ads?

Answer 25

@ganeshie8

Answer 26

How to Subscribe.

Answer 27

You pay OS $10 a month to:
1. Choose your own "title" that appears by your username in study groups.
2. A diamond SmartScore indicator that signifies your sponsorship.
3. Surf OpenStudy without external advertisements.

Answer 28

Do you think that is really worth it? @Rainbow_dashie

Answer 29

Especially when there is adblock out there for free that can get rid of ads, not just on OS, but everywhere.

Answer 30

@AnswerMyQuestions

There's a reason they want you to subscribe, because it costs money to use this site. If you want people to get Adblock for free, then they won't subscribe. What happens when there's no one to subscribe ? You are using this site almost every day, if there was no one subscribing, you wouldn't be on here.

Answer 31

*costs money to run this site

Answer 32

I believe the small misconception here is that Rainbow thinks that if you get rid of the ads, openstudy would run better. which, tbh, I don't think will work, sorry.

Answer 33

Sometimes when you logout, you have to reload the page before logging in...

Answer 34

@Rainbow_dashie Removing the Ads will not really make a difference in fixing the lag or loading time or other glitches and problems. Such problems are caused by other reasons such as runaway hamsters, servers failing, and coding bugs.

from the other perspective, if everyone got rid of ads by Subscribing to OpenStudy, then OpenStudy would actually have the funding to fix these problems ;)

Answer 35

I haven't seen an OS ad in a while. But OS needs ads to fund itself.

Answer 36

Actually, since yesterday afternoon, I have been seeing OS ads on the OS website... @confluxepic

Answer 37

Lucky me then.
