Mike FF Today 607 Posted March 6, 2023 FYI - We'll be testing out some new ad placements over the next couple weeks. Once initial testing is done (a few days), I'm anticipating some of the ad placements will be removed. I know a layout change can be annoying, especially when it involves advertisements, so I appreciate your patience over these next few days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike FF Today 607 Posted March 13, 2023 After a week of testing, we've made the following changes to the ads showing on the forums... 1. Removed the stickiness of the top ad. It won't follow you as you scroll down the page. 2. Removed the interstitial ads that would pop-up on occasion when you move from one page to another. We'll continue to monitor but I don't anticipate any other changes in the near future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray_T 587 Posted March 19, 2023 a lot of times the pop up covers both the message I am typing and replying to. any way to make that pop up ad appear in a different part of the page? its really annoying where it is at now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JagFan 97 Posted April 23, 2023 Mike, these ads aren’t easy to deal with when using your phone to access the site. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ray_T 587 Posted September 10, 2023 2 hours ago, cmh6476 said: This continues to get more and more awful, Mike. well, the two most annoying issues is when I'm on my phone it REALLY sucks the data. and when on my computer, if an ad pops up while I'm typing my message it will somehow move my cursor so I'm no longer typing in the message box and I have to mouse back to the message to continue typing. sometimes the ad will also cover up my message so I cant see what I'm typing. and lastly, if my submit reply button is too low and close to the ad it wont let me click on it without scrolling up to re position the button. I know... first world problems, but if you want the site to run more smoothly these are fixes that would help you. (if they are easy to make.... not sure that they are) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LaChup 154 Posted September 15, 2023 I love the new ads. Top, bottom, side to side, I love them all. I've bought so many things over the past few weeks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
