I have the latest version of Firefox. And I disable Ad-Block Plus on gamedev.net. But the ads don't show. However, if I disable ad-block for all sites, then the ads do show. Well I don't want to disable all ads for all sites. Just gamedev.net. So 1) has anyone else come across a similar or same issue and 2) how do I fix this?

Ad-Block block ads even when I whitelist gamedev.net
I think the question might be, does GD.net get money for every ad SHOWN, or for every ad CLICKED on? If it is the latter, and you have no intent to click on any of the ads, then it is moot anyway.
Not sure about the site historically, but most ad networks pay for both. There is a very small amount per view, and a larger amount per click.
...
Of course, with the site running its own ads, the revenue comes in directly and gets reported back to the customer with both views and clicks.

A quick look at the public side source code shows that this site loads the code for it's ads from several third party vendors.
On a side note: last time I looked at the payout for ads, it was about $0.01 per 350 views, $0.02 per click, and 5% of net sales --- of course this was a long time ago
Definitely in the 'trying to fix' pile, but it may be better taken up with the adblock developers.
I'm on mobile, but I'll respond in more detail later.

Doesn't whitelisting a site in Ad-Block only whitelist ads from the site and not on the site?
Looks like "later" has been pushed back to tomorrow -- sorry for the delay!
