It's slowing the fuck out of the site for me when they show up.

They aren't always there, though.

Are the Ad Blockers free or do you pay by the month?
Try uBlock, I have it......if you don't like it, you can uninstall...........free too.

Dude...............go out on a limb and do a google search for 'free ad blockers'

I don't think Chrome on a Smartphone allows adblock to work, has to be on a PC. Works on Firefox though

I've had three pop ups where I have to physically close them within the last 20 minutes, if this becomes a permanent issue, then I won't be hanging around much. I doubt that pop up blockers will work on these either.

I am making a list of the companies advertising, and boycotting every one of them.

On my PC, I have uBlock and Privacy Bandit on Firefox now. They work. on my smartphone, I have adblock for Android. There's a bunch of apps available on the Google store.
They're useless.
LOL.............work for me, quite well, BTW.

(1) I imagine that it takes a lot of money to run any website.

(2) So we should not begrudge the fact that ads now appear between threads.

(3) After all, we are getting to blow off steam for free.

You're a supporting member, I'm assuming you're not getting them. I don't think blocking apps would work in this case.

I don't care about the ads in between posts, I do not like the ones that pop up that you have to physically close before you can continue, they are extremely annoying, and I've had about 25 of them so far just this morning.
