Why is the forum bombarded with ads?

There are several threads about it, admins are working to correct it.
 
I dont think you can ever get rid of adds on any device
 
ya I've noticed that lately myself, it's been overwhelming actually!!
 
I thought it was something I did, like I clicked on something I shouldn't have...............really distracting and annoying !! Glad to hear its not just me that doesn't appreciate.
 
I don't mind a few adds, I understand you gotta pay the bills, but the ones that you have to close before clicking on the page are the worst, and now there's one over the banner!
 
Zero ads here
 
Using a different browser I noticed I don't get anything close to when i use google chrome. So looks like it has to do something with google.
 
Im using paid Tapatalk version. No ads.
.Sweet as.

I haven't seen an ad in years.

I'm a Charter Member.

And I use Whatever my browser is - I forget, but it's NOT a Microsoft browser.

I'll think about that and get back with you :)
 
no ads here, never have been . use an ad blocker and you'll be ad free too MAYBE

I see on one of the other threads people are leaving the site because of the ads

Yup.....annoying.....heres what I get. I'm getting used to it now though.
 
None on my PC, but on my tablet I get the one Blak Bart posted above. Very annoying. It bounces around so much, when I click a thread, it moves and I open something else (another thread, a profile, the ad, etc.) So I have to wait about a minute for all the movement to end to click something.
 
I checked my system, since I'm old and forgot - I try to do that regularly now = forget.....

But I use Firefox as a browser, and run Ad Block Plus....

No ads for years now.
 
I tried Chrome and Firefox, my usual browsers here, and both are getting slammed with ads.....
 
I recently switched from Safari to Google Chrome and get almost no ads.
 
It's so annoying at this point that it's making it difficult to navigate......
