Ads Popping up at Bottom of Screen
« on: December 29, 2016, 07:56:11 PM »
Is anyone else getting ads at the bottom of the screen (Ford) making it hard to read comments?

MOD NOTE: As far as I know, there shouldn't be any pop-up ads on the forums. I'll let admin know.

It seems to be a mobile thing, at least for me

Yup. I fell off my chair when an ad for a financial planner popped up repeatedly on my not-an-iPad thingy.

Not only am I seeing ads... some of them are audio/video ads. Right now I've got Ice Cream ads... see below.

ETA... and one for Lancomb Paris Makeup after I posted this...

Mode Note: Normal display ads at the bottom are normal, unless you have ad blocker on. They shouldn't be Pop-ups or be auto playing audio or video as far as I know. I'll look into it.

There was an ad yesterday that was forcing my screen to scroll all the way down--it made it almost impossible to post replies until I closed the ad (there's an "x" in the corner to let you do that sometimes)! I'm sorry, I can't remember what the ad was and I'm on my own computer now, so my adblocker is hiding it.
