These Pop-up Ads Are Infuriating!

Yeah, I get them now when I click an Alert. Frustrating as a site Sponsor.

Regarding ad blockers, some of us may be on their work laptop when on this site and can't/should not install ad blockers.
 
I was getting the ads as well. I have Adblock Plus, so it was pissing me off. But I just checked the settings and for some reason it was turned off for this site. I changed that setting and no more ads. I get it that Jim needs to generate revenue to run the site and I appreciate him keeping the site up. That's why I'm a sponsor. This site has saved me way more money than I spend on the sponsorship.
 
I think the "pop Up" ads are browser based not web page based. Jim's ads are in the banner at the top and in the side bar and relatively unobtrusive.

Didn’t hit the “like” all posts (lazy) but all are valid. +1 Steve on Crystal, I installed Crystal on the IPad from our last go around about this. I use the IPad pretty exclusively for here and don’t get ANY pop up ads. IOS updates don’t affect it either. Read some bad press on AD Blocker. I do need to renew my membership though.
:cool:

This is what I'm getting when I first open a thread.

This is a misconfiguration of the “mobile” site.
I use Firefox and it started a few months ago.
If I use the browser menu and tell it to use the desktop site no more adds.
Go back to mobile site and adds come back.
