I can understand that disabling adblock helps TF2C stay afloat. But even with it disabled, I sometimes get redirected to the "Disable Adblock" page. It is very frustrating as it instantly kicks you from lobby slots. Whilst I wait for a lobby to start, I usually browse other pages on different tabs (youtube, ebay, etc.). Other than that I occasionally have VLC playing music and/or TF2 minimised in the background. I would appreciate any information you can provide. Thank you.

Can you provide a screenshot where Firefox is showing the ads?

Do you only get redirected when visiting the Lobby page?

[Boob_Lee]

So far I've failed to see whether it happens due to something I do consistently or whether it happens randomly. For instance; I open (tf2center.com/lobbies) then cloudflare redirects me after 5-6 seconds but during that time I open another tab (example: etf2l.org) and when I switch back I see that I've been taken to Disable Adblock (tf2center.com/adblock). Sometimes my tabs are all on tf2centre and nothing else and I still get taken to the Disable Adblock page.

You will be redirected < 4 seconds after the CloudFlare check, if no ads were found.

I don't think cloudflare is the issue here. Redirection to adblock page happens some time post-check.

I didn't say CF was the issue.
