[NSC] Anyone else getting adverts pop up, when you click on a thread to read it.

Here you go. Whilst in this thread, I clicked the Log Out button and got this.

If I was getting that one every time I wouldn't object so much, to be fair...

Yes - very annoying - the whole screen gets taken over by an ad.

I had this earlier but only once. Pc using Chrome.

 

[GingerBeerMan]

When you say the "screen gets taken over" is the URL still an NSC URL or has the page been re-directed to a different site?

I’ve just tried to give another poster a thumbs up and an advertisement popped up, the same happened when I clicked on my notifications.

 

[Jim in the West]

Seems to have stopped for me now (I'm on a Mac using Safari)

 

[super-seagulls]

No.

I've not made any changes and have no interest in putting obtrusive ads on.

Can someone please explain what "adverts popping up" actually means in terms of what is happening so I can investigate?

For me it happens when I have clicked on either the ‘thumbsup’ or ‘quoted’ option in Notifications.

And can I please have my minor infractions from 2011 removed please, while you are about it?

 

[BN9 BHA]

Very useful

Wordle
Best song anyone has heard today
Ongoing Tory meltdown

I'm getting an advert on my tablet
for 'Hogarth' at the Tate Modern every time I log on.

Retirement property in St Helens today

I definitely am not moving to St Helens, never been there and can’t afford to retire this week.

I’m sorry but I’m out of office at the moment, I’ll respond to your mail when I return from Vankleek Hill.

I'm still getting them this morning. The wife walked by just as a bra advert popped up with scantily clad girl. She wondered what I was looking at and why.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Just got an advert for a funeral plan, charming!
