Hi All
Are the rest of you getting an "ad tab" across the bottom of the page?

When did this start?

How do I get rid of it ?

The only ads I see are the ones at the top of the page and a few at the bottom that have been there for quite some time. I believe they are from people who are actually registered on the site. I am also viewing on a computer and not a phone.

Phone, tablet or computer? I don't have them on the computer and don't even try accessing on a phone due to the ads and silly thing asking me if I want to use the vaunted "app".

On a computer, it's fine.

Ditto for me. Annoying new banner ad at top of page, and the same ads that have been at the bottom of the page since forever. The new banner ad is Google advertising. If the owners have allowed Google to infiltrate this forum, we are doomed.

We are aware of the issue. Thanks for reporting it.

I’m glad it’s an issue, by which I mean that admin and mods are hopefully trying to get rid of a problem, not deliberately accommodating what many here find a very exasperating and unwelcome intrusion.

This is awful. Can't get away from this junk no matter where I go. So sad to see it worm it's way into my most favorite site.

I've been using FireFox for many years now, with the ad blocker. I NEVER see any ads.

Phone users have less options. That said..if the top banner helps the site...im ok with it.

Ditto, however, if the site generate revenue from this, I can live with it. I've seen much worse.

We use "Ghostery Add Blocker". Free and does more than just adds.
Firefox is another excellent addition to eliminate all the Mircosoft garbage.
Then Linux !!!
