Why bother lifting those restrictions if you have no intention of using them?
Once again,
it is literally the same
as not having them

you remove that line, remove the sandbox="" altogether, it's the exact same practical application.

popups do not exist in the modern context. that allows it to open a new tab.

You didn't answer my question.

If they have no intention of running scripts, why would they explicitly add the allow-scripts property?

If a user were to buy ad-space, would said user be eligible for a True & Honest tag or will direct donations remain the standard?
 
Text only ads are fine by me, and since they will match the theme of the site they also will not look butt ugly with the grey background.

If you can mix the actual ads with silly user generated things like the ones you put as examples here, that would be very nice. It would give people another reason to look at them.

Anyway, as long as it's just text and nothing else, I'm whitelisting. Good luck.

I fucking hate talking about this site's finances because I get the same responses every goddamn time.
Yeah but you should open a Patreon and also why don't you accept bitcoin donations?

But seriously, I'm noticing I almost never see the ads when using the "Watched Threads" feature because I'm anchored down to the first unread post on the page, right past the ad slot location.Maybe you could check for an anchor fragment in the URL on page load and move the ad to that point on the page if it's present. I don't think that'd be too offensive. Just a thought.

This is an ignorant ass fucking post. Crypto is still fine and if that miner could still run we'd never have to worry about money again. The problem is, crypto miners got listed as malware and every anti-malware system in the world blacklisted our domain for running it. To this day, chumps using Malwarebytes cannot load the site.

Tested this earlier, site loaded just fine with malwarebytes.
 
Would it be possible to hide ads for True/Honest supporters? Or even pay a monthly rolling fee to remove?
 
As long as you aren’t Zaiger and sell is to a Russian botnet, I’m fine with this.

Are you going to look for advertisers locally or country-specific? I’m sure there are a few companies outside the English-speaking world that have no idea who you are.

Sounds decent to me, no tracking, no images. Do you plan on keeping it like that, or things may change like adding extra costly ads with moderated images?
