Read this first - Online gaming: Has Evony become the most despised game on the web? | Technology | The Guardian

Does anyone actually find it a turn-off? And what are the ways to block them, since the images load from different URLs?

I play this game, and found it through an ad. I didn't know it was everywhere until just recently. I hate it now, because it seems like no matter where I go, I see a Evony ad. It's grown quite annoying as of late.

try a firefox plugin called "adblocker" you can find it through Tools>Addons>Adblocker

as for the adverts they are uber annoying, and the game is obviously a pile of sh*te

Smells like, looks like, sounds like a scam. Designed to sign up people who are newer to the net.

You can filter it out, check the adsense forum for the latest terms. I did and it seemed to work. My arcade earnings took a hit, never underestimate the power of boobage.

These type of gambling ads hard to turn-off since the images load from different URLs.Just add it to your ad-blocker list each time you found one.
