way to get LESS-Ads thinkdigit forum :)
I dont know how many of you already know this.
But today only i noticed that. Already i know "fair" amount of details about vBulletin. But today that helped me.
If you want to get LESS-ads on thinkdigit forums, then do this:
1.Normal thinkdigit page with ads.

2.Scroll to the bottom of the page.

3.And change TDF v6a into TDF v6b

4.Then browse thinkdigit forum with VERY less ads.

I didnt found anything great. But it will be helpful for the people who already dont know. No magic here, we're just changing the stylesheets provided by thinkdigit
This is my first tutorial on thinkdigit so please be soft in criticisms.“I know that I am intelligent, because I know that I know nothing.”

Step 1 : Install AdblockPlus (For FF/Chrome).
Step 2 : Restart browser.
Step 3 : Add subscription.
All ads gone, from TDF or otherwise.

Of course you're correct..
but this is just a tute about disabling ads without any installation.

I just download the "hosts" file from here and replace my "/etc/hosts" file with it. It blocks thousands of ad servers.

I use Adblock Plus to block ads.. Blocking off all the ads from a site is not just as they needs funds to operate..

They can always get revenue from visitors, there are always guests visiting from time to time. Also, those who want to support can create an exception in ABP. Though the changing skin idea seems more easier this way.

Installing NoScript also helps.It just wipes the ads which depend on javascript,etc.

Re: way to get LESS-Ads thinkdigit forum :)
the v6b theme is more than enough to get rid off adverts. No need for add-ons

Thanks guys...
I never thought of disabling ads but today, it got worse.... Suddenly my TDF main screen gone slimmer with huge space occupied by ads on both the right and left side of the screen.
