Please do not put video advertisements that run loud on page load.

When I search for a Java hint and my computer starts to shout out loud some advertisement through all the office (which is an open space), it makes me wanting to add your site to my personal blacklist. Just mute the video by default, or even better, save some bandwidth (and therefore some dolphins) and don’t make us download the entire video every time we click on a link of your forum, make the ads clickable!

For all Firefox users that – like me – are annoyed of hearing the same ads over and over again when surfing on java-forums, I share this little Greasemonkey script I wrote instead of smashing hysterically my monitor with my keyboard.

// ==UserScript==
// @name           java-forums-advs
// @namespace      java-forums-advs
// @include        http://www.java-forums.org/*
// ==/UserScript==

var sidebar = document.getElementById("sidebar");
if (sidebar != null) {
	sidebar.parentNode.removeChild(sidebar);
}
