Still, flashing/flickering ads are something Staff should know about, as they could potentially trigger seziures.

Wikia staff don't really have much control over what ads appear. They can request their ad provider to not show certain ads, but the ad provider isn't obligated to make the change and no one can predict future ads that have the problem. Ad providers are notoriously uncooperative unless they stand to lose a big chunk of business and most ad providers all tend to serve ads without reviewing their content for criteria that a client might not want.

I just wish there was a way to block ads that redirect to app stores on mobile.
