Cheatsheet.com Filters

Is there a filter that can be written that blocks Cheatsheet's attempt to strong arm adblock users into signing for their newsletter or disabling adblock for the site? I don't want their spam. I suppose I could just give them one of my other emails to keep the spam off my main email but I'd rather not encourage these tactics.

I know pretty much nothing about writing these filters so help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for the help, it works. I did have to remove all my old stuff to get it to update, however. Otherwise it would it would me the "not a valid CSS selector" error. Is there a way I can put them back without that error? I don't remember exactly what they do but I assume some of them have to do with my previous attempts to use the block button to get rid of of this problem but other parts actually did work. The code looked like this before I replaced it:

Code: Select all

##[class$="_box"] > A[target="_blank"][rel="nofollow"]
##[class$="_simule"]
##[class*="mdeyheadline_"]

Are you saying you want to keep some other old custom filter and you get some synthax error ?
if yes, for what site it was that filter, which is the filter and what do you want to obtain with it ?!

Sorry, I was under the impression that some of my old filters were for other sites. As I said I'm really not good with this kind of code. Looks like my filters are good now so thanks for the help.
