Remember: we can only block with a screenshot -- a description of the ad is not enough, since we don't see the same ads you do ;)



On a PC, use the PRINT SCREEN button, then Paste (ctrl-V) into an email or post.



Yeah... I'm not sure what your complaint is either, but Heather is trying to help.



Bottom line: you will see ads whether you're a member or not, as we do not as yet offer an ad-free membership level (we will).

If you see these rollover ads (they're not really popups), screenshot them and we'll block them.

Fair enough?

If you guys would switch to Chrome as your browser the pop ups are gone. And it is way faster than IE.

Excellent suggestion!!!

That is what I use and this is the only site that it happens.

Besides, I prefer the fix the bug than me implement a work-around.

Panther 06-27-2012 09:00 PM

Agreed that it's faster, must faster actually! However, this is one of the slower forums.

Havent had a pop up since i posted the thread. I believe its local because the dodge dealership was from the nola area, not far from me. I also havent seen the banner ad since. Glad to see OSO be so proactive and helpful, thanks guys!

Here is the nemours ad...Funny is that it came up when I was looking at this thread....

glassdave 06-27-2012 09:42 PM

i dont get any pop ups on this site, been using Firefox and i have noticed the blocker notification thing pretty often though.

I use Internet Explorer and have a popup blocker on. I also have my computer set to clear out all cookies when I close out the IE program. I dont get any pop up ads when I come on OSO.

sorry guys gonna be RVing for the weekend. will be out the weekend after the 4th tho with the future in-laws!

You guys aren't set up right. I have NEVER EVER seen an ad on OSO in 5+ years! I don't get pop-ups, I don't get inline forum ads, I don't get top or bottom banner ads. Nothing! Not on this site or any other site. I'm using Firefox with Adblock Plus with a few custom filter rules.

Secondly, taking out your frustrations on the mods is futile and disrespectful. They have nothing to do with any of this. All they do is take time out of their day, on a voluntary basis, and try to help us all.

I don't do GFY well. And why is the issue there to begin with.

IB, period. $$$$$$$$$$$$

Yet another one. I thought you guys didn't allow this?:cartman:

Before it was a neusance but this is getting rediculous. An NO, I refuse to change my settings or install software just to get your site to work properly.:eekdrop:

Losing patience with this, signed fellow OSO member since 2002 with over 10,200 posts...:poopoo:

I get the same one if you roll over it. Must be because we live close to the new one they are building. I sure hope they are better at fixing kids than building a hospital. That project is a cluster *uck.

IBobi 07-10-2012 05:22 PM

Thanks for the screenshots -- I'll have them blocked.

Panther 07-11-2012 08:13 PM

Still there, just had the nemours one pop up again.....:whistle:
