I just got a message "Support AudioKarma - turn off your ad block" So I turned off adblock. We'll see how it goes. :)

I've been getting this the last couple of days also. I became a subscribed member so I would not have to deal with ads. What gives?

Ok sorry, this was supposed to just be like a tiny test on a page or two and inherit the ads permissions. My bad, it seems to have deployed everywhere there is ads so I've taken it down for the time being.

No troubles... It's gone now.

And, I suppose I could put up with a few small ads if necessary. I'm pretty easy..

Thank you..
 
Appreciate your suggestion. Occurred multiple times yesterday.
The adds surround and overwrite the left navigation areas. I can't imagine anyone who runs a company that shovels ads is insane enough to do this as " intended "

It only happened to me that one time since I resubscribed. Sometimes the ad folks get smart about getting around the AK blocks for subscribers.

I went to site settings and blocked third party cookies, Popups and intrusive ads. Check your settings and see if you do as well.

No. These are " Experiments " by the ad engine/provider. I have no patience for it.

He knows he is doing it, and what he is doing.. to circumvent our privacy ..

I am liking the first part but my comment on the second is that in the past he has worked to stop those intrusions for subscribers in the past. I am sure your post is being taken seriously and will be taken care of.
 
Problems again with JBL

Happened to me again as well. I refreshed and it went a way. However I am a subscriber so it may be different
 
Here is a interesting bit of information. If I go to the main forums like general audio discussion. The JBL ads pop up. If I am in the sub forums It doesn't.
Obviously this is unacceptable for subscribers
I went into general audio discussion once and the whole forum disappeared and the page said ad blocked... Hopefully this information is helpful

This is a first for me, a JBL ad consumes much of my screen, as illustrated on the attachment. It seems to continually paint itself, which includes the bottom as well as side and top of the screen. It blocks content and causes page down to not work (it skips content). This is quite annoying. Is this a new feature?

I read a few pages back. I live in CA, and I type audio.... into the browser. This happend on a computer that has no ad blocker. And, as stated, this is a first for me. You might let the advertisers know that this type ad is not endearing for the products/manufactures that are the subject of the ad. It has the opposite effect for the advertiser and well, for AK.

I'm not seeing any of that on my iPhone or using my Mac MX 1 Studio and the Chrome browser ....
