CC vs Ads!

[ComicChick]

thank you, please do.
any screen caps, links to threads they're in etc help the IT people track them down and figure out the issues

These ads pop up every time a page loads. It's pretty irritating, and its tough to close out.

^what browser you using Flint?

I was using safari, but I downloaded Chrome and that seems to have fixed the issue

I am getting the same thing in Firefox, but only on the main page.

On my PC, when I close it, there is no problem. On my Ipad though, when I close it, I have to refresh the page in order to be able to click anywhere.

Not sure if it's really an ad per se, but for some reason whenever I go to a section on here my App Store app opens to a specific app that I didn't go to on my own.

 

[ComicChick]

is it always the same app or different ones? if so, what/which?

One was Words with Friends for a few times then it became Lyft.

And it comes from different tracking sites, one is tracking.crobo.com another is control.kochava

The ads on this site are getting ridiculous; Chase Bank, Ram, you don't even have the option of closing them.

The Starbucks ad popping at the bottom right side of every page is a bit much.

Once on the main forum page, sure. But every new page?

 

[Golgo-13]

Yeah, i'm getting the Starbucks ads EVERY page i go to.

 

[SuperHeroHype]

We are trying to get the Starbucks ad removed. It's very annoying.

Any chance of getting rid of the Intel ad. On mobile it takes up the entire screen with no way to close it

 

[Reek]

is this just a mobile issue?

I use chrome on my laptop and adblock+ and haven't had an ad on here in years.

 

[scarlet-witch]

I keep getting a watch anime ad every time I try to log in, and there's no way to close it out. I just have to hit my back button and hope for the best. I'm browsing on chrome. I didn't see this thread until now or else I would've gotten a screen shot, but it happens every time I come here.

 

[ComicChick]

if you guys can post screencaps that would help

 

[the_ultimate_evil]

There you go that's what the Intel ad does to my iPad, every single bloody page, and rotating the pad does nothing

 

[ComicChick]

thanks. i've sent a report up for it

 

[the_ultimate_evil]

Any word in this it's still happening and getting beyond the joke. I can't even see the hype on a tablet

 

[Golgo-13]

'The NBA Finals' Ad is really annoying.

 

[Erzengel]

I'm tired of the NBA Finals ads, Hong Kong ads and Hyundai ads.

 

[Iron_Stark]

NBA Finals one is annoying me.

 

[ComicChick]

screen caps and the threads you're seeing them in would help

About a month ago I started getting debilitating popups on every page. I literally couldn't access the site at all without getting flooded and having to close the tab altogether. I already had Adblock but it wasn't stopping it so I downloaded a program called ScriptSafe that allows you to limit what a website will load. It's granted me access to be able to get on the site again but it's kind of a cumbersome program that has often blocked things I didn't want blocked. Really, I shouldn't have had to use it in the first place.

Seems like this thread's been abandoned but anyway... I just got a "Facebook" ad offering to make me a "millionaire". I'd post a screenshot but I tried making one with the snipping tool and then realised I hadn't used it correctly. Too late now. Anyway, it was just a big window with a lot of "Facebook" **** inside that was all greyed out, and in the middle of the window was a dialog with a button I had to click if I wanted to be a "millionaire".
