[Fixed] Wowhead uploading data again

Just a heads up.
The site appears to be uploading large amounts of data again (relative to download data).
I have a bandwidth monitor. When I load a Wowhead page my upload bandwidth usage spikes to unexpected upload rates, even exceeding my download bandwidth usage for loading a single page.
I am noticing huge spikes in uploading when ads refresh on the page. The data uploading stops when I close the tab.
In b4 mods lock thread and admins ignore the issue again.

Are you running a AdBlocker? If so, which one?
Do you have any other browser extensions or addons running? Which ones? On which browser?
Also, please know that we aren't ignoring any issues, despite what some choose to believe. Even if duplicate threads get locked the issue isn't ignored. Unfortunately sometimes misunderstandings are occurring between ignoring something and not being satisfied with the choices available (i.e. "bad ads" aren't something we like but making multiple threads about them doesn't help anything, so we direct users to the appropriate thread with instructions to help us in a tangible way). An excessive upload/bandwidth issue, however, isn't a "bad ad" so we'd like to obtain more information so we can best investigate. Thank you!
