Dave Ambrose Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 It's not just you. I noticed it this afternoon. What kind of device were you using? It still seems to be okay on desktop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSNJim Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Not really. I have a Windows laptop, but I see ads that I have to scroll down a screen height and a half to get past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redisetta Posted September 22, 2020 Author Share Posted September 22, 2020 Dave, I’m using an iPad. It can get a little frustrating, but I guess it’s a necessary evil,lol. I can live with it. I don’t post much here but I have been a member for about six years. I visit the site a couple of times a day and have benefited so very much from listening to you guys.

espo Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I have noticed that they're getting bigger and bigger to the point that they now take up more than half of each page when you're trying to read about some ones build or look at the finished build. They have gotten beyond rude or annoying and now are becoming down right obnoxious. I hope there is something that can be done about it soon.

SCRWDRVR Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I found it funny that the ad decided to spam this thread lol...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichCostello Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 uBlock free ad blocker. Never see an ad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doorsovdoon Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Yep, ad blocker plus. Sorry if it effects any revenue that go's to the forum, but over the last few years it's become impossible to surf the web without it. Might be better to use a donation based system. I'm a member of a few forums that work on that system and they're doing fine. YouTube is one of the worst for ads and in my opinion unusable without ad blocker cos it used to freeze my laptop from overheating, I was pulling my hair out!

blunc Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I too am frustrated by ads overlaying thread titles, a screen refresh (on my PC, using Firefox) cleans that up temporarily but is comes back right away or when I move to a different thread.
