ddarko12 7,631 Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 I wanted to know if this is something that could be changed or if it's just how the forum layout works beyond y'alls control but: If I'm looking at threads and click on the last page number or timestamp of the last post, I get an ad popup and then it takes me to the first page afterwards. It has to be one of the most annoying things because obviously I clicked on the last page or post. Is this just part of the design that can't be changed? If so... yikes lol y'all must hate it too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

kenmy13999 26,237 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 This is so annoying but seems it's nothing anyone can do(or want to do) about it. It's been mentioned several times in the dlc speculation thread and I've even reported some posts to be sure the staff is noticed about it but no one has ever said anything about it..

Now videos are starting to play at the bottom of my screen for 15 seconds on top of the ad redirects. I ha- it's happening again right as I type this. Twice actually. I really hate to say this but I will no longer be using this site with adblock/without the ABP browser. There's ads and then there's this. Almost unusable and I barely even come here that much as it is. Edited January 20 by ddarko12 Link to post Share on other sites

Happy to donate for a better ad experience, not some fextra-life wiki tier bullsh*t. Link to post Share on other sites
Solution Tank 902 Posted January 22 Solution Share Posted January 22 Thanks for the feedback. We have recently switched to a new gaming-focused ad provider to help with funding. We are currently trialling different ad types based on their recommendations. Unfortunately due to the way ads are shown, we don't always see the same ads as you, which makes it difficult to diagnose what's causing issues like ad redirects. We will be passing on your feedback to the ad provider so they can investigate. We will be introducing new membership tiers soon, including a premium ad-free experience tier for those that wish to support the network directly. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Cheatz/Trickz 2,735 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) This new update to the site is dog sh*t, completely broken on mobile. And i’ve got the latest IPhone and so it’s not the phone. Edited January 26 by Cheatz/Trickz 1 Link to post Share on other sites
