Lego Ad keeps popping up on forum (1 Viewer)

[kanona29]

I'm sorry to complain and I don't know where I should post this, but this Lego ad that keeps popping up on the screen whenever I view a thread just completely takes over the phone screen and makes the forum unusable.

How can I make it stop?

Please view the images to see how it looks on my phone. Thank you!

Just try not to step on it if barefoot…

Yes the ads have been very invasive lately, making the scrolling experience so much more of a challenge than ever before, sometimes forcibly moving your place on threads as you’re reading.

When you complain about ads please do me a favor and list what platform, device you are using and the type of browser. A screenshot of the ad and the URL it takes you to helps a lot too. I see all of the ads myself, and when I see an invasive one I ask for it to be removed. However, I mostly use desktop and a Firefox browser, so my experience is different.

I posted a screenshot but I don't know the URL info. I'm just now getting on the forum today. I'll see if it continues to happen while browsing. Thanks!

I sent the Adops people an email. They said they would get on it.

Legos were the toys you hated to get while growing up. I don't understand this whole fascination with them in the modern day.

Hi Andrus. I’m getting similar ads, but this one looks like a Wal Mart ad for Welch’s.

iPhone - Safari

Here’s another they just popped up. Some kind of poll.

Yes this one is making it next to impossible to view the site. Security errors, reloading the site, and completely moving me around a thread.

iPhone, safari.

It's only certain ads that are a problem. They'll start off with a border around the page and then cover the whole page where you can no longer see the forum like the screenshots posted.

I didn't get any of these ads like this yesterday and so far today has been fine.

Loved them when I was a kid, and a renewed love for them in the last year. No regrets at all. To each their own I guess.

Have you tried installing an ad blocker on your phone?

I always view the forum on my PC, so I never have these issues.

It's been years, but I can verify that stepping on Legos does hurt like heck.

Not me. I loved them. I still love them today. Now they got framed lego artwork, conventions. You see what these people build now. It is unreal. If you are not fascinated by this ,

You do realize that when you tell members to block the ads you are telling them to block SR's main revenue stream, right?
