Since when guys???
Been away for a week or so and just popped back to see what is what - and what is what is adverts!!!
Since when did that happen? They take up half my screen!!!
Yes I am logged in, and I contribute to the coffers each month…
Confused…
I use an ad blocker.
There was a recent thread about this subject and @james had sorted the problem. But using an ad blocker is easier!
Used an ad blocker a long while back but there are ‘things’ I use my laptop for that ad blockers would just screw up.
My beef is that, for the years I have been on this forum I have not been plagued by ads - and now it has started.
My question is - is this the new norm or is there a glitch in the matrix?
PS - Where is this thread you talk about?
Think it’s this one…
It’s a free forum, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t cost anything to run.
I hardly notice the ads. Ad blockers are a double-edged sword.
It isn’t as bad as YTube these days, and I manage to ignore tham without getting bothered. The ones that most annoy me are the ones that offer you a way to avoid them.
I don’t mind the ads at all. They seemed to disappear for me for quite a while. The only thing that upsets me a little is that the ads have now predominantly changed from scantily clad ladies to chair yoga for the elderly 
As long as you’re still getting the emails from young Russian ladies
Sounds better than the mascara for people with scant eyelashes and the ones for incontinence knickers which I get every time I glance at Facebook…
The scantily clad ladies are back today. Obviously, all that chair yoga has made the difference
