Dragoncave clickables lag problem
I have noticed that anytime the add box has dragocave clickables in them, Ala lags terribly. At times it takes me over a minute to load a page when they try to show up. A few time I crashed while Ala tried to load both google and dragoncave stuff.
After finding out I am not the only one with this issue, I suggest disallowing clickables in the advert box and move them to the sales chat. I never understood why they were not allowed there, where they hardly cause lag and get off the screen quickly. Alternatively, only allow links to people's profiles so they can be clicked from there.

Support for the same reason as Quagga. I'd like to see just ads in the advertisement box.

That is a good idea

Most of those other sites do not cause lag, and aren't posted in those excessive amounts. But I'd be not opposed if it would be a general rule.

So, if they're not allowed, then why allow links to, say, art, or any other type of website or even image hosting website? It's still the same exact thing when posting a clickable image.

I have every add blocker available. <br /> <br /> Anytime the lag comes up is when the clickables are there, and Firefox will tell me it is waiting for the dragoncaves site. You can see this at the bottom of your browser. And this type of lag I have ONLY when waiting for the dragoncave images/links. <br /> <br /> The reason is that simple, Ala needs to wait for another site to load something. anything ala internal is already there, and you only get lag if there is a connection issues from you to Ala, not to a 3rd site.

I support only because I feel that <i>only</i> Alacrity advertisements should belong in the Advertisements box. However, I have not noted any lag because of these adoptables.
I do not support for the same reasons as Magg.<br /> <br /> Deep, huh? x3

I do not support this. I don't see how a dragcave adoptable - technically, when posted up, are no different than someone putting an image in the advertisements that are also a link to another page - can possibly lag anyone. Which, I mentioned this twice in chat when it was being talked about and never got a reply, let alone a logical one that could explain this fact to me.<br /> <br /> They're not disallowed in the sales chat last time I checked, either.<br /> <br /> If google is effecting your browser so much, then I suggest getting some kind of ad-blocker add-on to it, since that's what I use. I've NEVER experienced lag from adoptables or clickables of any sort on this website.
