PiHole + Adblock + OC3D

[FTLN]

Hey mods, any chance of letting us know what adservers you use, I just installed a PiHole on my home lan and would like to unblock ads for OC3D. Cheers

I don't know, but I will make sure that Tom sees this tomorrow morning.

There's at least a few behind https://www.overclock3d.net/gfx/sponsorbg/ but doubleclick.net is also used, and it's something I wouldn't allow globally. So somewhat challenging for just Pi-Hole to unblock.

This probably is nowhere near exhaustive.

Hey dude,

We use google to deliver most of the banners but a couple are done via adbutler too

Can you not just white list the web domain?

You'd have to whitelist the ad domain, but that would allow ads on all sites that use that ad network. It works by not resolving the ad networks' DNS.

Well I guess I'll just have to have run with no ads, its a shame really each site cannot have its own subdomain serving the ads, this would make it much easier to support the sites that I enjoy visiting. Thanks for the info
