More Ads Lately?

Every time I click on a different page within summitpost I get a huge pop-up add at the bottom of my screen.

A new advertiser recently asked to work with us. We accommodated, but sometimes the ads at the bottom of the screen were the wrong size. I believe it was fixed, but it seems not. What size ad are you seeing? Can you take a screenshot?

Big banner across the bottom of every screen. Very annoying. Have to manually close it for each new window. Today there's a new "feature": two bottom ads, each one of which you have to click on a little box to close. Truly horrible. I though there was a move to have an ad-free site for those willing to pay? I would.

The biggest issues I see with the new ads is that it makes it hard to sign a summit log. It covers up the submit button. Sometimes closing the ad makes it work and sometimes it doesn't.

The following user would like to thank Scott for this post

I have to agree, I noticed it happening a lot more recently. The adds end up resizing the page or completely moving everything once it finally loads. Two adds per page, everytime you click a new link, open a new photo, etc. As I type this the add at the top keeps resizing and glitching the screen. This site has invaluable information, it is incredibly buggy though with these new adds, desktop and Mobile.

Any progress in addressing this issue? It is still happening.

Hi Woodswalker, I had the same problem, really annoying. I tried
https://adblockplus.org/ and the shit vanished (I use Firefox as browser). Try it, maybe your problem is gone, too.
