oh fuck no.

Yes, they sort of do that. They're less obnoxious about it than some other sites I've seen. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 1, 15:00 4
- They actually won't let me in unless I turn off ad-blocker. Not sure how that's not 100% obnoxious. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 1, 15:00 3
  - Oh, that didn't happen for me. It showed me a quote and counted down to opening the site. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 1, 15:05
  - Even if you do that but block trackers via Ghostery it will still block you. -- nm - iSpam Feb 1, 15:01
  - well, it's a thing of Steve Forbes to begin with -- nm - mr. plow Feb 1, 15:01
