New pop up adds

[christopher]

Zooms out by half.
Still no ads.

"Shrugs"

The zoomed in is easier to read on a phone.

Correct.
I do NOT have a perfect solution.
Though you may want to consider loading TAPATALK on your phone.
That is probably the MOST OPTIMIZED solution out there.

Why do we have to go thru this every year ? Pop up and unwanted ads .

Because we keep coming back here...

Fwiw,
I don't pay for ad free but I NEVER see any ads.

I'm not complaining though!

Of course you do.
Your a LIFETIME MEMBER and its one of the added benefits!

UPDATE:

Have had several conversations with Harris Publishing.

Based on YOUR COMMENTS and reactions to the Pop Up Video at the bottom of the mobile page they have decided NOT to continue using it.

The Pop Up Video should fade away shortly!

Yep, have yet to see any myself!

Being a LIFETIME MEMBER absolutely has its PERKS!!!

Christopher,
I'm a lifetime member and when I go to the User CP it wants to charge me $9 for no ads. Is this normal?

Seems to me these are unwanted by everyone. Wouldn't it just be easier to discontinue them? IMO adds like these especially completely unrelated adds to a sled forum just annoy the user to the point of not looking at them which to me makes the add counter productive... It's part of why I've never put up a banner, I feel like we get enough shoved down our throats. Positive note, still feel like this as well as the others forums are a valuable and helpfully tool. Again we can all use a little less clutter.

Funny...don't see them pop up in the new G4 section

Few other forums I visit have had major ad issues also.

Got Adblock Plus (free) for my PC and I don't see anymore ads.

 

[Reg2view]

mob/phone is better now, FWIW. Still ads in the Axys and Pro forums, but not as annoying.

Let me check your membership status. But right now you are showing as a Premium Member, not a lifetime.
Hang on a moment.

CORRECT YOU ARE SIR!
Our system FAILED to move you into the LIFETIME MEMBER category.
I just corrected it by hand.


My Apologies !!

Please understand that I do not get to make these decisions.
I pass along your comments to the people who make the decisions and do my VERY BEST to make sure they fully appreciate your "FEELINGS" about them. I am allowed to offer you some alternatives and solutions, but I do not have the authority to decide how advertising is done on the Forums.


Honestly, the VERY BEST experience you can have on these forums comes from being a LIFETIME MEMBER. I don't think you will find many who have gone that route and regretted it. Most are VERY happy with that choice.

You shouldn't see them ANYWHERE on the forums?
Your a LIFETIME member.??

Ad Blockers do NOT solve the problem.
They just paint the ad WHITE.
Its still there
Its still slowing you down
Its still taking up valuable space.


The No-Ads option we offer to the premium members resolves ALL of those issues.
