Hello! Thank very much for mantaining this website!
I've searched around and didn't find anything on the matter, so i'll ask here.
Is there any way to stop wowhead from autoloading and playing a game cinematic on each window I open? I don't mean the ads, those I understand are needed to help the site survive, I mean the miniplayer with a video running (right now it's showing "Rastakhan Dazaralor Ending". Until I click the cross in that player to make it go away, the site is really slow for me.
Thank you,
David

Hi David,
This is an ad unit. It injects ads while a video plays, assuming any ads are available to display to you (lots of variables involved in that). A video has to be playing for these ads to be displayed.
Like all ads, this ad can be removed while still supporting the site via our Premium subscription for $2 or less per month:

Well unfortunately this kind of ad is really unfriendly for users. It take more than 25% of the screen (on mobile) and we have to close the video every time we click a link (and the button for closing the frame is soooooo tiny I miss it every time with my big finger and click an other link instead). Plus it slow down your website a lot.
I understand you have to keep wowhead alive but I will have to activate the adblocker again sadly.
