Ads

[GrandOldTeam]

We're in the process of migrating to a new ad partner.

Please bear with, it'll take me a little while to fine tune placements/user permissions to get the ads as you expect/become used to.

[Update] After a 2 week trial, we binned the new ad partner and went back to the one we've used for 6 years. There has been no changes.

Thanks

I cant see these yet (they're not controlled our side) so if someone could grab us a screenshot I'd appreciate it.

Genuinely took me an age to work out how to do a screenshot lol lol

Yeah always had the same amount of within thread ads.

Only difference at the min is they can be a tad bigger and the alignment needs fixing and on mobile theyre parallax (kinda slide behind page)

Can't believe all this faff is to fund your new fancy biscuit habit.

That annoying header advert on mobile that several complained made the website 'jump' has now gone if logged in.

MaupsGoat putting out his own adverts now?
(oddly despite the display this screenshot appears to show that add blocker is turned on)

Delighted that gone, was driving me a bit loopy. Thanks

Any idea when the ads should go away, just checking in case this issue is supposed to be resolved as I am mainly reading in chrome on android and I'm getting the ads scrolling "behind" the page and tonight some times they are popping up full page and I have to click to close them

I was using duckduckgo but recently that's signing me out and telling me I have cookies disabled when I don't reckon I do. Changed to chrome and this issues happening

That ad at the bottom, that comes,and goes, and makes the page jump about.

No.
Stop it.

My annoyance gland is secreting.

Thanks for disabling your Adblock.

Since Monday afternoon, we moved back to our old agency/ads are as they've been since 2016.

We've had that footer ad on mobile for years - in January we put it for logged in users. (It's not visible for forum supporters). That ad shouldn't jump about though, at all. Brave can be a tad overzealous block scripts that make the site function but having just tested it seems OK for me.

One of the reasons why I trialled another ad agency with different ad types was to try and get more from less ad units (I'd rather not have that unit for logged in users), but that didn't work out and feedback was against the within thread/parallax so we revert back.

I keep getting an HSBC add take over the whole screen without me clicking anything which is a bit annoying. All the other adds can be scrolled past as normal, just this one pops up no matter what

Still have the issues above @GrandOldTeam

Seems in any thread I have an ad every 5 posts per page. I don't see the ones scrolling behind the page but there's a lot of ads
