Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

to be fair, there wasn't much that needed blocking back then either. Mass tracking came about later.
There were a ton of ads though. And you couldn't block them.
Please install a game from dodgy site you found via link diving on some forum, yes do not bother reading anything, nextnextnext...
What do you mean you have ads in ads?
I miss this wacky roulette ^^' And I still caught only the last moments of it.
The time between pop up ads / excessive ads and ad blockers being introduced wasn't that long. You'd get some annoying banner ads, but the intrusive ones were quickly blocked.
