To begin this in the best possible way: I do not block any of the ads in the forum or front page, nor have I ever done so.
However. I'm currently on my laptop. For various practical reasons, it runs FreeBSD. There is no FreeBSD flash plugin.
With that in mind:
1) I still see a newegg banner, because they have a gif fallback. If you could hint to the other advertisers that this is a good idea, the issue of flash or not would become rather minimal.
2) Kyle, are you in a position to mention to Adobe that recompiling a FreeBSD version of their linux plugin would be a good thing? Even entirely unsupported it'd still be useful.
3) Should I feel guilty for not always being able to view the flash ads?
edit: FWIW I just bought a lifetime OT subscription. I honestly don't manage to feel very guilty.
