    Holy Ads popups - Please Include Screenshots (if possible) and Device Information.

    Wow is this new that between every post there is now an ad that has to load. Talk about slowing a search down.

    Yeah the ads are really killing OS for me. I don't run ad blockers but when so much of the screen is ads I can see why people do.

      Turned off my adblocker and, yeah, lots of ads. Checked both OS 4.0 responsive and OS 2.0 default styles and it's the same. Not really affecting performance for me though on my PC. Probably would be really annoying for someone browsing on their phone or a tablet though.

        Is it still happening? I don't have an ad blocker and I'm not seeing any pop ups.

          Ahhhh, I see what you are talking about. I thought you were actually getting popups. Let me check w/ the ad team and see if there was some sort of mistake implemented.

            It may have been a temporary thing, as I'm not seeing them between posts anymore. But I'm still checking with the team.

                    Yeah this has literally been the only add I've seen for the past day or so and its been on every single page. Sometimes also seems to cause the page to scroll down when it loads.

                      I’ve literally been getting a video ad that pops up in the lower right corner of my iPad every other page on this site starting today I guess. Super annoying? Any way around this?

                          Is it only on an iPad or Mac system for you too? I’m my windows desktop no ads. When I use my iPad boom. Ads.

                          I really hope there is some fix for this. It literally takes up a good portion of the lower right screen over the top of trying to read stuff on this forum and it’s every other page. Ruining the experience here and I’m not new so that would be a shame lol

                            Im on a Windows PC and just starting getting the ads popup. Quite annoying. At least make the windows smaller so it doesn't block the forums.
