Ads on the site
Ok I tried to log in this morning and the site was down due to maintenance. And now I'm getting all kinds of random pop up and drop down ads . Nothing changed on my part

Re: Ads on the site
I have a similar situation, Mark. Just started this morning -- every time I open any page (only on this site), an ad appears across the bottom of the screen. There is a 'down' arrow on the left side so I can minimize it, but as soon as I open another page, the ad pops up again. Never had this happen before.

Re: Ads on the site
Getting the same thing here this morning. Same thing with the left arrow or a boxed X to the right of the ad. Click on the X and that ad goes away soon followed by another ad. Clicking on the X brings up a choice of two boxes. "Stop seeing this ad" and "Why this ad" Irritating.

Re: Ads on the site
I was on here early.
Then I came back and open the computer up, I got the (Site down for Maintenance) I was hoping it would fix the Subscribed thread issue. My system is still acting the same. I only get one add at either the top or the bottom, Depending on what page of the site I am on. I have had the pop-Up adds in the past. So, mine is acting the same as it was.

Re: Ads on the site
What's this site coming to? The real world I guess. What's the world coming to? Used to be people could handle a thing or two not going right needing to be fixed. Ask the same question after more than a handful of hours with a new issue not being yet resolved. It's time to appreciate all the time things have run smoothly I guess. (Paul, I know your post was in jest. Not targeting you)

Re: Ads on the site
I wrote a post, then couldn't post it because site was down. Came back later and could still post it. But I never got those pop-ups. I guess it's fixed

Re: Ads on the site
So far so good here. I guess the advertisers know I'm broke.

Re: Ads on the site
I hope these ads aren't a permanent fixture...super annoying.
Mods, are these being rectified or is this a new normal?

Re: Ads on the site
Post number 6 says the admin is aware of this problem and is working on it. Something that happened after the update. I think Josh is a one man show when it comes to behind the scenes making this board run. I know the world runs on instant gratification now, but maybe give him a chance?

Re: Ads on the site
Is it fixed yet? I hope so. I see no new posts, but that could be people now see that it was a known issue administrators were working on fixing.
I got no e-mails yesterday. I check this morning and unlike any day in a long time I had a slew of junk e-mails slip in overnight, like a dozen or more. It's like Outlook had the same problem. I hope that gets fixed. I just looked and there are 6 more since I deleted the others. All within 1 hour. It looks like at midnight junk stopped going to my junk folder. Last one was 11:22 Sunday. Now it's all going to my in box
