Advertisements?

[Rainman]

Hey Admins - What's with all the advertisements lately? This is so bad that it seems there are more ads than posts and I find it hard to follow a post because of all the ads slipping in between each post or they're taking up space above or below posts on my screen. It's a little too much and pushing me not to be here anymore. I loved being here and communicating with others, but finding it very hard to follow posts with these ads jumping in and out all the time on each page. Please fix this and thank you!

Mine does too, but that's only for popup ads. The problem I am having is the message board slide up or down ads right within the utvboard that take up about a third or more of my screen.

Here is an example, whereas there is a small post and two huge PDF ads above and below. At times, there are more ads than posts on my screen.

We use google auto ads which injects ads in odd places sometimes. We'll have a look.

Yes, please see what you can do. Now, ads are popping up on top of posts and I cannot shut them down, so I can't even read certain posts. I click on the X in the corner and the ad changes with an arrow in the opposite corner. I click on the arrow and the previous as appears.

I'm testing some things this week to see. Eventually, we'll have an ad free offering as well. I think Google injects too many ads sometimes.
