Ads

[GrandOldTeam]

We're in the process of migrating to a new ad partner.

Please bear with, it'll take me a little while to fine tune placements/user permissions to get the ads as you expect/become used to.

[Update] After a 2 week trial, we binned the new ad partner and went back to the one we've used for 6 years. There has been no changes.

Thanks

What is the point with ads? Find them annoying myself.

They make you join the navy.

This can’t be a serious question

This has to be the most GOTian advert I've ever had on here

And if anyone finds the ads annoying and wants to reduce the sites reliance on them to pay the bills…

Can't escape them Temu ads anywhere online it seems.

Here comes Temu, China’s ‘scary’ bargain-basement Amazon killer

The 'shop like a billionaire' brand is luring millions of UK customers – but at what cost?

I'm not complaining. I've often been left frustrated at not being able to purchase inexpensive, assless leopard print pants.

Assless pants!

I thought they were stylish spiderman type masks for people with abnormally large heads. Maybe what sniderman wears around the house type thing.

Is the ad that pops up at the bottom of the screen evolving? It has periodically started to grow and take up half the screen The tab bar (HOME, FORUMS etc) has started cutting free and heading south toward the middle for a few seconds every now and then. Could be ADIS at my end.

Is that ad one that sticks to the bottom of the page?

There shouldn't be any sticky footer ads when logged in on desktop.

What device are you using - do you know what screen resolution too by any chance?

I get ones that appear at the botom when a new page is loaded or refreshed. Sometimes it looks like the below but other times like the one previously posted.



This happens on an android laptop.

Am I getting @tommye ads now?

These videos ads that we seem to be getting are bogging down and freezing my screen on both phone & PC.

Some of us don't have ultra fast internet

Anyone else getting the same "experience" ?

Can you grab me a screenshot please mate.

Shouldnt be any video ads or anything that slows the forum down - actually spending a good few bob on ensuring the site is quick (server/caching software) etc so we don't want ads letting us down.
