The ads are destroying my experience on the NeoGAF.

I've been getting ads that are now intruding on my browsing experience. I wonder if this is by design or it is just a one off, or perhaps it is just something the admin/tech is working on?

Beg for gold constantly and someone with deep pockets and no sense will help you out

To my mysterious benefactor, the above was all in jest and your gilding is much appreciated

cee lo green gold GIF by Recording Academy / GRAMMYs

Op you are golden. Some mad benefactor keeps donating. But mad in a good way. Thank you whoever you be. Yes the benefactor admitted who they are and again I say thank you to them.

Multiple duplicate ads throughout the page, this can’t be as intended.

edit: like 4 on this page for me for bike helmets and gaming had like 5 for lightsabers.

Ad keeps reminding me a 2 Year old kid won't survive for too long.


Evilore had a thread about the ads sometime ago. I don't mind them if it's absolutely necessary to keep the forums alive. Though expected the ads to be a bit slim in size.

It’s like I am browsing ads.. never seen this before on a forum .. as a Digital Designer 🧑‍🎨 I am disgusted, but energy is expensive I guess …

Once I got a large ad which was quite risqué. Was on my mobile. But after a few refreshes and a don’t see this add option it went.
 
Yes I noticed it this morning. I don't mind ads but I hate it when theyre put between posts. I even had one that's as big as my freaking phone screen...
Reminds me of shitty spam sites.

I never see ads, ever. I guess I’m using internet that filters all ads. Ads always hinder and making loading pages really slow.

use an adblocker?

i started getting a message today begging for me to buy gold that wouldn't go away. added the element to my blocklist and now it's gone!

the site must be struggling.
Got to pay the bills somehow. The Patreon isn't doing it.
no shit. only 8 people have signed up so that's only $24/month if everyone is on the lowest tier. i doubt all 8 people are on the $100/month tier lol. the different tiers don't offer any benefits so there's no difference between $3 or $100. the site is lucky if it's making $100/month all together.

Gold is likely making the site way more money. not sure what ads bring in.
