Unfortunately, the way I look at it Ibobi, is that your company has let a bunch of trash outside click advertising on this site, which not only ads clutter but makes huge negative performance issues, and some security issues. This has forced us to use programs that unfortunately also block out paid for advertising on this site. I say unfortunate because seeing site sponsors is actually good for the members. We need them , not only to help pay for the site, but so we can buy parts from them for our hobby at hand.

Looks like you are blaming us with finding a fix on our end.

I'm pretty sure that blaming your customers is not the better way to handle this.

My opinion that I hope you take into atleast a little consideration.

99% sure that is being caused by the video ads down the right side that are loading and changing as you view a page.

man they must be making a ton of money with all these Vegas style blinking ads going off all the time.

Do they promote their classified ads anywhere else to bring in other people beside the common viewers up here daily.

I don't spend near as much time on here as I used to, simply because of the giant ads that usually cover most of the page, and the issue stated above in trying to type a quick reply is interrupted every 8 seconds by the page jumping.
I'm too old and my attention span too short to try and keep up with it..

It seems to be running much better today.
No more page jumping up and down and running much faster.

I agree and if not even worse currently. Times you out from typing posts, skips, jumps and everything is delayed when you click on it up here. The skip / reset jumping around of this website while typing is the worst. You type something and nothing shows up - this is constant all the time that happens to me. And its prob a year of doing so but has gotten a lot worse. The laptop seems to be constantly running something in the background while on this site. No other site does this and I do not search porn either to throw all those viruses at it including viruses from those porn scants. haha

Ads just start on their own with voice talking ----- an example just had Trivago start an ad with voice while I am typing. I do not even click on any of these ads nor anything. This has been happening for about 2 months. The site has turn into like watching TV - every 2 mins a commercial comes on.

We are not allowed to mention it (the fix) any more due to site rules.

But I can say see my and other people's previous posts on this thread and other threads on the same subject.

Your welcome.

Then make you sh!t work right without phucking up everyone's user experience. You are in the customer service business, THe reason for this boards existence is for the enjoyment of the end user. YOU make money because of the end user. Not because of the ads. If you have no end user base, you have no advertiser revenue. I as well as many others PAY to use this sight. And your going to tell me not to discuss a way to make this function properly after you jack it the phuck up?? Get a clue and come out of your mom's basement.
