Add us to your AdBlock whitelist
Some readers have recently reported having problems viewing content at PistonPowered, with a red background rendering most content virtually unreadable. Thanks to a helpful tip from commenter nuetes, there’s an easy fix.
If you’re having trouble viewing the site, check to see if you have the AdBlock plugin enabled in your browser. If so, it’s relatively easy to add PistonPowered.com to the whitelist so that it’s disabled only when you visit here (though I’d encourage you to add other sites you trust to the list as well).
A quick Google search should give you all the details, but if you’re having trouble figuring it out, leave a comment on this post with your browser of choice and the name of the plugin you’re using and I’ll try to point you in the right direction.
We try our best to make AdBlock unnecessary here by keeping ads that are offensive or invasive off the site. If you ever see one you think falls into either category, don’t hesitate to bring it to our attention.

Hey Graham,
Since this is your post, I’ll throw this comment here. Since you all are powered by WordPress, I’d request that you enable mobile viewing.
I do a great deal of my Pistons reading via mobile devices, and I can only see that increasing for me and other users in the future. Unfortunately, no browser on Android that I’ve used allows me to enter text into the text box at PP. This is the only WP blog for which this occurs.
Anyway, just a constructive observation!

little late but i’ve been able to use the opera mini on android to enter text into the fields. very recently started allowing this. not sure if this is a change opera made to make it compatible or a change they made at PP. i agree a mobile viewing feature would be nice.

Thanks for the suggestion, guys. Along with fixing our periodic outages, this is my top priority for the site. We want to make it easy for you to view our content in as many ways as possible, and mobile viewing is definitely part of that.

You can certainly see your skills within the article you write.
The arena hopes for more passionate writers such as you who are not afraid to mention how they believe.
At all times go after your heart.

May I simply say what a relief to find somebody that truly knows what they are talking about over the internet.
You certainly know how to bring an issue to light and make it important.
A lot more people must read this and understand this side
of your story. It’s surprising you are not more popular because you certainly possess the gift.

Wow, marvelous weblog structure! How lengthy have you ever been blogging for?
you made running a blog glance easy. The
entire glance of your web site is fantastic, as neatly as
the content!
