Adverts on the forum

[Ed Dinning 1Participant @eddinning1]

Is it just me or is the latest pop-up ad for all the mags in the publishers range a pain in the proverbial’s?

We are back to the earlier days of this forum where ads crippled it. This latest pop-up has no immediately obvious cancel or minimise tab and prevents viewing of the forum. It would appear to be a waste of space as, as subscribers to the forum we are fully aware of the other titles anyway.

Please get it deleted, or at least add a minimise tab.

Of the several forums I visit this is the slowest of any, all due to the ads

If it’s the one I’m seeing then there is an “x” for closure in the upper RH corner. It doesn’t stand out though due to the (deliberate?) lack of contrast.

I found those wrecthed “Black Friday” ads particularly annoying. Sent that nonsense back whence it originated… the USA.

Nor was I impressed to find the latest issue of the magazine (ME) has a double spread of advertisements as its centre- spread – ads that were all perfectly happy and perfectly accessible in the end pages and back cover.

I may sometimes rely on the suppliers and their advertisements, and they do fund this Forum, but I don’t like being treated like an idiot in the process.
