apologies if this is the wrong forum to post this in!
is anyone else getting more pop up ads than before? the past week whenever i log in I get the same, annoying, pop up ad. whenever i go to another part of the sight it reloads (ironically it reloaded when i opened the forums to write this haha). it gets in the way of gameplay and it's very frustrating. i totally support ads on the sight, i was just shocked by how invasive it was. i have an older laptop and it makes the site run much slower whenever it pops up (which ik isn't their problem but it's still frustrating).

The advertising report thread

I keep getting pop up ads too, they’re so annoying :(
no yeah ik this is an advertising report thing but I've also gotten the exact same wnba ad way too often. considering retraining google by just typing "I hate basketball" 200 times into the search bar so itll leave me alone

Yeah that one makes it almost impossible to play on my ipad when it pops up, so glad it's getting reported.

This comment made me snort-laugh. X'D
Sadly, doing that would probably just make it worse. Because then the AI would just read the word "basketball" and send even more sports ads, lol.[/center]

Yeah this was the first ad that made me start blocking ads on Flight Rising. I'm willing to allow ads again once all these ads are taken care of.
Really sucks for the Arcane flight though. I can't believe those ads ran throughout the entire fest week

Yea those are such a pain. For some reason I can't do anything on my screen when it pops up?? Like I'll be relisting AH stuff and it pops up and its like my screen no longer obeys me and just goes stone-cold [emoji=skull size=1]
I forget when else specifically but yea I recall yelling at my screen a notable handful of times :/
I understand ads are needed for revenue but cmon you can't have it interrupting gameplay

I hate it Soooo much. The only reason I haven't blocked ads because of these invasive pop-ups is my hope that it will be gone soon. On pc, I've just started refreshing immediately once I see it show up so that way I don't have to wait and stare at it for several seconds before I can Do something again. =/
Edit- I hate sports already. Why must it be sports?

I really hope this isn’t a sigh for things to come. Knock on wood, hopefully it ain’t

Yep, the annoying ads found me as well. Repeat to all the complaint above. *Sigh*
