Report Problems with Ads Here!

I've started seeing ads that forces me to click on them to continue viewing AK content. They blur the content, prevent me from scrolling down and forces me to refresh the page or click on an unknown link to open the ad full screen. I'm fine with ads in general but, those that blur/block content and forces us to click on their link are extremely annoying to deal with.

Edit: This shows up on a Windows 10 PC while using Microsoft Edge.

Hey everyone!

My name is Doug Bishop, and I'm the owner of Advally. We're the company who is assisting AudioKarma dial in a new ad setup. I've heard from the admins that there has been a few issues cropping up, and I want to get rid of any problems for you as fast as we can.

If you see something, could you report it here with the following info:

-Operating System You're using
-Device type
-Browser
-Screen Capture (if able)

That will do a great deal to help figure out what is going on.

Really appreciate the opportunity to assist you guys!

I’ve got the same thing a few times today on an iPhone using Safari to browse AK.
The grey pull up screen that forces a full screen window you need to close.
 
I am having the same problem starting today using a laptop, win 10, chrome browser.

I have noticed by the comments that have been posted by members, not subscribers, that they are seeing more ads.

There are ads on all of AK but one of the benefits of being a subscriber is actually less ads.

To be totally honest, these new types of ads makes the site annoying and difficult to use. The problem isn’t more ads, it’s having to click links and interact multiple times with a single ad, and this on every pages.
 
FWIW, while not being a subscriber I`m not seeing any of these ads members are recently starting to complain about, I`m guessing, because of my maxed out EDGE browser`s privacy settings + operating in the InPrivate mode, I recently suspected something was newly going on in the forum`s ad insertion department, as when opening up any thread I noticed large gaps recently starting to appear between the threads posts, that I suspect ads would be inserted if my browser`s currently aggressive privacy settings were absent would allow.

Not complaining, mind you, just a statement of my recent observation of the change of the forum that I`ve noticed.

Carry on folks.
