'Wall of text' question

I've seen a lot of 'wall of text' questions, like this:

Using Windows 7 Home Premium 32-Bit on Google Chrome Incognito with both of the extensions AdBlock AND AdBlock Plus,I want to block as many ads as possible on every website or page that I visit.Currently,when I open my TextNow account it just endlessly loads the page so the account is useless,but when I disable AdBlock and allow TextNow in AdBlock Plus all it does is constantly load the ads and while it loads I can do nothing until it stops.Before adding the AdBlock and AdBlock Plus while having TextNow open,I'd not see ANY ads on TextNow and now I do since I must disable and allow these extensions as applicable yet the page/website just loads and loads and loads even when I click to stop the loading.Prior to both extensions I didn't see any ads and it was working fine without endless loading or losing any of the functions.I've tried everything that I can think of to do and nothing I do works or even partially works.There's very little I know about computers,but I'm learning as time goes by both experience and reading stories from others.Anyone with an answer,P-L-E-A-S-E make the answer step-by-step or 1.,2.,3. etc. otherwise I'll easily get lost as well as all details like step 1 when you do this,you'll see this happen so click at point "X" so this (blank) happens which make "A" happen and you'll see (blank) happen.I'll be waiting and thanks much in advance.

  • Was this too harsh? What should I write instead?
