What's up with all the ads?
 
Maybe I missed a post about this. Seems like the forum has turned into one ad for every two posts. Did something change?

Someone else was having weird issues like this.

He cleared his cache and rebooted his machine and it went back to normal.

Im personally having none of the issues you are.

No issues here either. Never have had any.

Hmmm, ok. I will reboot and see if that corrects itself. Tired of Rocket Mortgage ads :)

They are back. I see them. I thought maybe I was logged out but that's not the case. Then I figured it's because I don't pay to use the site.

Yup, that is the type of thing I am seeing to. I think they are from Google. I see ads for weather stations and I was searching them the other day. So the ads are targeted.

I have it too. Not ok.

I hope somebody can get these ads stopped soon.

Mines gone nuts too. It’s seriously annoying.

Very annoying.:cuss::m6:
I just rebooted and cleared the browser cache.
Back to normal for now. :smoke:

I see no ads, but I cheat...

...running these extensions
o Ad Block Plus http://adblockplus.org
o Disable HTML 5 https://chrome.google.com/webstore/d...ndpkolai?hl=en
o FlashControl https://chrome.google.com/webstore/d...imkipmoe?hl=en
o Privacy Badger https://www.eff.org/privacybadger

With these in place...I never see any of the annoying crap any more. Occasionally I will be required to open a site or article in another browser or in Incognito mode as to get past their 'no ad blocker' policy, but the overall browsing experience is now controlled by me, not by them.

BTW even though I'm a premium member here, this site does not care about ad blockers!

Re: Adds
 
I also just noticed that.
Seems like they are between every two posts in a thread.

Re: What's up with all the ads?
 
I just recently started seeing the ads as well. Kinda breaks up a thread.

Just noticed that as well. Really breaks up the threads and in my opinion, makes them harder to read
