Report Problems with Ads Here!

I don't get this question. Do you not know when your company made changes to the ads on this site? Do you not keep a change log, or a service order history? If you need a timeline go through this, and other threads, complaining about the ads.

Of course, we keep an extremely verbose logging of everything that we do. However, Just because we have it logged doesn't mean I can tell exactly which unit or change is being complained about in a specific situation. I can make guesses, but having someone confirm a statement like "Ever since those units went live" is referring to a specific unit just ensures we change the right thing.

Anway, we have disabled this unit for Logged-in Members. Anyone notice things improving?

In my opinion, demands on member CPU utilization and internet bandwidth have been reduced to acceptable levels. Thank you.

I disabled my blockers to compare it to the last time I tried it. Way less ads, and the maxed out CPU usage caused by crap trying to load every few seconds is gone.
 
I've not checked it with any benchmarks- but it seems to be loading pages smoother, with fewer delays. now.

Gordon.
 
My phone is not hot right now. That is a good thing.

So far it's like night and day, in a good way. :thumbsup:

Awesome, so sounds like at least we got this round of issues improved?
 
So I have a question for Audiokarma folks, why must it take so long to solve a problem like this and piss off so many members when it should have been thought about in the 1st place. I am starting to wonder who is in charge at Audiokarma and if they really care about subscribers. Jm2c!
 
After a long time without issues here... this just started yesterday on my iMac desktop/Safari.

Now when I come to this site, at first AK appears, then in the few seconds it takes to do the log on/password, this "ad" takes up the whole screen, nowhere/no way to log on.

Today I went to take a picture of it and noticed that it disappears after about a minute and I can log on and enjoy our site.

I've cleared cookies/cache/history, even restarted the iMac... it's still here.

Any help? @Advally

Per Doug at Advally, there is some re-working of the ad program underway, with an eye toward reducing ads for members. Things will be in a state of flux, as different options are explored.

That said, it's a problem if you cannot get to the login screen. Myself, I just stay logged in, and close the page on my desktop.I only log in when I have had to log out, for a specific reason, usually for investigating a problem with a member's account. OTT, I stay logged in.

Ok, yikes. I think we know what that is, we've pushed out a fix that should address this issue!

Still happening. This morning it was a little harder to get rid of. Don't mind the ads, it's just when they take up the entire screen. Once I can get to the "x" and get rid of it, I log in and alls good.

Thanks for your help.

We are currently looking into the issue and will update you once it is fixed.
