    That's very strange. I use Chrome most of the time and don't see it. So you are seeing an ad in between every post all the time? Is it a certain thread or certain ad that keeps displaying? Just trying to get more details.

      This occurs whether or not I have any popup blockers disabled.

      I don't believe that I have issues on Tapatalk, but I'll check the next time I'm on it.

        Any idea when it first started and does it happen if you try another browser?

          It started a little over a week ago for me, I imagine.

          I just popped up Edge on my computer and it happened, but since I haven't used it before it was also actively installing adblockers while I tried it. After making this post and refreshing the page, it's not happening anymore. Perhaps that is with the adblock enabled. Don't know why adblock with Chrome didn't seem to remedy it though.

            Agreed with Blzer...with me, I have Adblocker on and it happens on every thread I pop into if I scroll a decent amount.

            It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

              Which browser? Without all the details it's hard for the team to troubleshoot.

                  I reported it, but I'm in Edge right now with 40 posts shown on each thread. I scroll all the way through and don't see them. I don't have an ad blocker.

                    I can also confirm I get an ad in between every single post using Firefox on my laptop and also browsing from my phone.

                      OS is almost unusable on my computer., unfortunately.

                        I'm doing the best I can with the tech/ad guys. Unfortunately it is out of my control. It's definitely happening, but it's just not happening to everyone, so it's taking a bit longer to resolve.

                        As always, the more details everyone can provide, the better. (Tried clearing browser cache, tried another browser, another computer, Windows/Mac/mobile, etc.)

                          These forums have become unusable for me on iphone. I keep getting a full page PlayStation ad every 30 seconds I scroll. I now just got the same ad then my browser opened up another window for a target ad.

                          I fully understand ads make money but I’ll find another place to use.

                            This started out of the blue about a month ago and it doesn't matter what browser I try. Thought it was my computer glad well not glad to see I am not alone.

                              I will admit that it's a little sad to see this website in this state. I'm using an adblocker and seeing the same things as the people above. Hopefully this new forum software comes in handy, but it looks like GTA 6 will be out before it. Lol. But seriously, we can't keep playing Whack-A-Mole here with all of the various ads issues. They bring in the revenue, but there has to be a better way. I've been browsing these forums for countless hours, but something about ads in between every post kills it for me.
                              Live your life to fullest.

                                Yup. I get it. I just wish it was easier to pinpoint. I've asked numerous users if they have any ad issues with ad block on or off and none of them have issues. I open the OS forums logged in and logged out on numerous browsers and don't see the issue either. We are still looking into it.

                                Keep the details coming. Even more strange that it's happening no matter which browser with a select few.
