The ads on BCF are pretty unobtrusive so I have it on my whitelist.

it's the first time I've seen that message since I joined, been running ad blocker the whole time.

also did a search and there is no mention of this statement at all on the forum, so something changed, might have been my end but I doubt it

Hope you don't suffer from one of the 900,000 malware adverts found in Google AdSense.

Always adblock. You might trust Korn, but you can't trust advertisers and what they're pushing.

Go to the bottom of the page and choose 'Light Mode'.
It removes all but the bottom ads.

You need 1 gold karma-blob to enable light mode. Guess what ad-blocking does to your karma?
