No ads no where top to bottom

The ad may not be there but the text is still smashed in the corner and the pictures are tiny.

I don't care if an ad takes the whole slot of a post, but to make them share space does not work!

This is your answer. It's just a good thing to have all around anyway.

I understand there is ad blockers and such. They have been around forever.
IMHO I should not have to download something to my PC so I can stop a site I have been coming to for years and posted 1000's of post to from making my visit miserable. If I have to be proactive against a site then that site is not welcoming to me.
The bottom line is since they started this ad onslaught I have been posting less and less and for that matter coming here less and less. I'm sure I am not alone.

As an example, no one has posted in the bilge section for 12 days.

Im Not so sure the ad is purely an IB issue. I'm on other forums owned by IB that DO NOT have the first post ad.

These other forums are much more busy than OSO.
