Is there any chance you stop the ad banner going over the controls? It's a huge pain in the arse, as the down arrow is partially over the home button, which is extremely awkward on mobile. Other times, the banner covers the controls completely!

I've attached two screenshots. This really kills the site's usability.

But it's must have gold jewellery! You'll be missing out if you don't get it! Gold doesn't depreciate in value!

 

[BlackTron]

Covering the home button was the point!

 

[MudoSkills]

This is annoying as fuck. Less inconvenient but just as irritating when it pops up from the bottom of the screen too, and you're suddenly looking at a half page ad.

 

[Trilobit]

Skill issue. Git gud, OP!

The point is for you to buy gold.

GAF GOLD™

 

[AJUMP23]

When you don't have gold and you're one of the poors it is annoying.

You think our boy EviLore is running a charity here? Pay up or quit your whining

Or use a VPN with an adblocker and that also does the trick

Maiden Voyage puts all the ads in his favorite locations. It is his passion.

Not to be that guy... but I think we can thank the purple nurples for this newish approach to ads. For many years here, ads were very minimal. I never even used ad block or anything because they were very unobtrusive. But I'm getting out over my skis here....

 

[Plies]

I can't relate to you, OP

I've got a fun one popping up every time I refresh now. Just a giant spider.

I really need to see why 'Carol Kirkwood's (63) bikini photos leave nothing to the imagination'.

Yes, that whole situation and having to start from scratch (except with significant overhead) forced some changes. But still, not satisfied with the way our ads are impacting user experience lately and working on improvements.

I stopped paying for Gold because i wanted to see the pissing girl again, but unfortunately she has been replaced by sleep apnea pillows

Glad to hear that the ads are being looked into. I've been getting way more than usual of them lately

and if you're on dark mode then it's even worse because their background is all white

I had a God damn baby cyclops ad last year for like a week. I never clicked on it but it was incredibly freaky. It was like one of those poor deformed frog babies in India.

Luckily I get ebay ads now

I logged out, cleared cache, then went back in. And I still see what Celsius sees. I'm on iPad.

Not sure if it is because of ads, but on my phone the thread placement often gets screwed up like this:

Is it the one with the guy drooling on his pillow?

iPad is a mess right now. This is the 3rd post of this thread and my main page looks just like Celsius' post above.

[Beretta]

I am going nuts with the ads all over, especially the bottom one that pops up. I don't whore this site enough (yet lololololol) to buy a membership which I assume gets rid of it plus I don't like to put any kind of money related info on the internet anyway so not sure if that's even in my future but they've really gone wild with annoyance in regards to forum ads.

Why are there ads anyway? Every damn website I go to has ads. I am tired of it. It makes using the internet miserable and websites unappealing to navigate.

This is what I saw when I opened the site this morning. The bottom banner is taking over the space the top banner is! The same ad is fighting for space.

Ive been using duck duck go more on this site

This is what I'm getting, plus ads embedded in the body of every other post. Not very usable on phone right now

Working on replacing the current setup over the next weeks.
