Report Problems with Ads Here!

I've done what I can in reporting problems as the thread says. I have given 2 examples, along with OS, browsers, blah blah blah.

I have also expressed my displeasure, as others have.

It's not the $25 that will make me or break me. It's the principal of the matter.

And by the way, here's another example. I have never seen this on my Mac.

So, I'm doing my part.

I'm also out.
 
To be on topic, I will also report that I am seeing the very obtrusive ads that others have reported, using Firefox on Linux.

To range off topic:
  • Even though I don't feel clicking on the "X" is much of a threat to me, it is flat unacceptable.
  • As long as this situation persists, I will avoid renewing my subscription. It's the only leverage I have.
Hoping for sense to prevail,

Ridiculous number of and placement of ads. I shouldn’t even see them as I am a subscriber.

ios
Chrome
IPhone X plus

android
Chrome
Nexus 9
 
Got the first pop up ad this morning.
Chrome app on s10
Different note, the banner add up top is longer than the forum is wide.
 
I have no trouble at all when signed in and using my desktop; I also have some version of an Adblocker installed.

My cheapoid Samsung cell phone is another matter, as only recently Google ads have been popping up across the bottom, even if I am signed in. Seem to go on long enough to irritate me, then disappear...they block some of the bottom of the screen. The top ads, such as Holt Hill and the like, appear in the top and out of the way of any text.
 
I am getting the ads that creep up from below and make it difficult to enter text.

Also experiencing very noticeable lags between text entry and when it appears on screen. And often getting delays and freezing when typing, and when clicking within the site (for example, on threads, on page numbers, on navigation buttons. Performance is terrible.

Android and Chrome.

A very respectable compression ratio there Chief.

PS: To be on topic, I see no pop up ads, ever, @ my circa 2012 Lenovo X220 OS W7 Core i7 RAM @ 8GB. I use (almost exclusively) FF. Might have a few "tricks" among my inventory of "Add-ons" that prevent/cause to bypass me the myriad moving ("creeping" was my favorite description thus far) adverts.

So it's now back to ad-free browsing @ the AK forums for moi.

Oh, I get that on my MacPro (Mojave) sometimes with Gmail and a few other sites ... LinkedIN triggered it yesterday. Even w/32G of memory!

I am getting a huge block of various ads showing up at the bottom of my page, which I've never seen before. I checked my subscription and it's still active. I also verified in my version of Chrome that the pop up blocker is enabled. This just started in the last few weeks. Most annoying.

Yep, thats that Mass-Ad block titled "SellWild"

I only see it when I scroll to the very bottom of the page, so I don't do that anymore.

I have been going through a very rough time in life and finding any degree of humor is rare! But I looked at your post, and most particular is your "Of all the things I miss, I miss my mind the most...:confused:", thank you for putting a smile on my face and a chuckle!

is it me or is there more Advertising pop ups on the site?
I like to use my iPad to visit here but now on the bottom of the thread there are large advertising sections and I have to say it’s really annoying

I use Firefox on Linux Lite with my laptop and the only ads I get are at the small top left portion of pages. When I visit the forums with my Moto G3, it's ads galore.
