I dono how to get a ad URL or do you mean the adress to their page?

[Elysia]

There are instructions in the first post of this thread for how to obtain the information we need:

HOW YOU CAN HELP

Static Ad - What to do if you see something weird, offensive, or ugly:
1. Right-click on the ad --> select ‘Properties’
2. Copy & paste the ‘Location URL’
3. Right-click on the ad --> select ‘Copy Link Location’ (Firefox) or ‘Copy Shortcut’ (Internet Explorer)
4. Paste the URL (this is the click-through URL)
5. Post these two URLs, along with the URL of the page where you saw the ad.

I just got like double aded side by side. I'm not complaining about either ad, I'm just saying that lol it looks buggy and bringing your attention to it since it looks unusual.

[Lolsteak]

I'm curious as to what your stance on ads that cover 1/4 of the screen is, currently on the main page on mobile.

Looks very suspicious being this large and on every page.

That's my old class signature thingy.

Probably because it is an image and .php instead of a .png or what ever.

Not seeing ads anymore, but the front page on mobile is still squished by the same amount, seriously considering just using an RSS feed app instead of coming to the website itself.

Hello,

Today I was unable to browse the forum, after the 3rd link I would get redirected (without clicking adds) to a full screen add. Pressing "back" didn't work properly as the sneaky add providers put in 2 redirects at some points so you would need to press back very fast to acctually get back to the forum (only to get redirected again after the next link).
Since I was at work and unable to decently copy links I took screenshots of my history and the add showing up. I hope it helps, if really needed I could find out the full url though.

Sorry if the size is out of place, I'm not familiar with linking pictures on the forum.

Hi there, there's an add that appear in the front page that start with audio without clicking anything and is a little annoying to start hearing these people talk out of nowhere

[Jofe]

I'm getting at least 4 video ads that autoplay with sound, its pretty annoying. I have a bunch of tabs open and it took me some time to find out from where the sound was coming (luckily the latest version of Opera places an icon in the tab from where sound is coming from) I think there's a couple more, one from I think it was Barbie that I didn't screencapped in time and another one that I don't remember what it was.



Metro PCS link https://www.metropcs.com/30-phone-pl...GM|$30Unlimite

Adidas link (which upon seeing the preview of the post I realized that I forgot to screencap but there's one from Adidas that plays sound)
http://www.adidas.co/bestofsport?cm_...deo&cm_mmc1=CO

Mazda link http://www.nuevomazda2.com.co/?utm_s...evoMazda2_2015

The Exxon one didn't have a link
They appeared on the Home page, but it looks like they also sometimes appear at the bottom of the page in any page, it was then when I had a hard time finding them.

Thank you for any help you can provide with this.

There were autoplay adds with sould on front page.. Now they appear at the bottom of EVERY thread I open..
Just now I had 3 tabs starting play adds simultanously, quite loudly as well..



Come on, it's getting ridiculous.. I'm trying to support you by NOT running add-block, but why should I bother when you have such annoying adds playing, out of the blue, on every page I open..

#edit

Just as I posted.. Another one started playing in the thread I've just posted:

20+ seconds music shit..

[DemoBytom]

It got even worse.. This time I've got 2 autoplay ads playing on main page, one on top, near Recent Forum Posts, one on bottom, at the footer.. Both playing out of sync..
That's enough, I'm blocking MMO Champ's ads with ABP, I tried to support you, but the fact that nothing has changed, and not even a response was given is crossing the line..

I don't normally respond because it would be the same every time. I see the reports and pass them along to our ads team and they attempt to get rid of them while new ones pop up. That is about all I can do.

Another autoplay add, links to https://www.spilnu.dk/l/winners?bonu...mpaign=viagame
It also appears on other curse sites such as mtgsalvation

The Elder Scrolls Online ad bled through the forum well I was editing a post.

You've got an ad for Little Women: LA at the bottom of the screen. It likes to autoscroll my page to it, and that's frankly really annoying. If I pull away, it pulls me back, and it takes me a few attempts to get back to what I was doing.

Leads to this link http://www.mylifetime.com/shows/litt...Women_20150715

Ads like this, are why I use adblock. I'd like to support the site, but I can't tolerate ads that behave intrusively like that.

And I just heard an ad autoplay this song:



I think my adblock partially blocked it because I couldn't find the ad, but so long as you can't keep back ads like this, you'll no longer be whitelisted.

Android script leads to this.
