I have AdBlock disabled here and somehow I still keep getting the low quality video player. Every time I come back onto the site I have to clear my cookies and sign back in. Having to sign in again everyday on the sites I visit is incredibly annoying.

Something is really messed up here. I have an i7 4790k and this page alone is putting between 10 and 20% load on my cores with jumps as high as 50. I leave the site and it goes back to between 1 and 5%. There must be some really nasty ads being served to the site right now. I'm starting to also get a Budweiser ad with sound on the right side advertisement box.

Just now as I was getting ready to post this I got an Alan's Pawn ad (I imagine you guys have never even heard of them lol) . It was playing multiple times and overlapping. It was in the bottom advertisement window.

I'm also having problems with the video ads at the bottom of pages. Besides the audio being annoying, they also cause videos to stutter and just plain stop at times. I only have a 6Mbps connection (and usually only get 5) and am just barely able to watch videos here. The video ads (and constant loading of new ads) push my bandwidth past what it can handle.

Also, page load times have increased significantly. They used to only take about a second, now it's not uncommon for them to take as long as 10. I love GS and have been using this site for years. I really hope you guys can get this fixed, but if you don't I'll have to find a new game site.

North Carolina, USA

Edit: I can't watch anything right now without getting constant stutters because of new ads constantly loading in. I'd rather use AdBlock and the low quality video player than put up with this.
