Simtropolis popup advert

I bought the STEX on the assumption that if I did so, I wouldn't have to see that popup whenever I visit this site. But it still appears. So that's my fault. But is there a way to bypass this popup? I bought the STEX, so there's no need for me to continue to see this ad. I'm using ad blockers on the latest version of Firefox for Mac.

    Reading is a lost art. People scan and anticipate and woolgather in the white space

    Where ever any of you read anything, if you get this resolved, maybe you can do something about Google Doodles that I've been trying to block for years.

    Simples, don’t visit Google! I’ve switched to DuckDuckGo, since I value my privacy. I don’t miss them.

    Head over to my Lot and Mod Shack to keep abreast of my latest developments.

    Do you like custom textures, but don't like all the work involved creating them?, take a look at the Texture Automation options here. Change the look and feel of your transit networks, with the minimum of effort, for example customised versions of my Sidewalk NAM (SWN) and Terrain Grass NAM (TGN) mods, and much more besides.

    New to the NAM? Check out my tutorials on YouTube. Latest upload: How to: RHW - MHO Roundabout Interchanges. (Nov 25).

    p.s. - I'm MGB over on SC4D and a member of the NAM team.

    For me, who's on mac too, I have uBlock but it doesn't bother me to have from time to time the ad for the STEX dvd because I think it's normal compared to the fact that it can help to increase the income of the site, a site that still allows us to have fun by downloading files to embellish our cities, fix bugs and save old sites (SimCity Polka WMP Prod, SIMPEG, SC Brazil, etc).

    Why aren't we switch the ads to exclusively STEX DVDs like in the past? Assuming the membership is strong enough to do so. The ads isn't necessarily to gain money directly like an Adsense, but to push our members to donate which in turn generates revenue for us.

    Thanks.
