No need for it to be so large. So you're willing to cover whatever revenue would be lost by shrinking those ads? I'm sure Chris and Yzerfan would be happy to chat with you about that. It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crabcake Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 PLEASE get these sponsored headlines off the bottom of the page, all of them are either things that I definitely don't want to see or that I don't care about, which makes them annoying. I understand the site needs to make money, but there has got to be a better way to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These ads are more than I feel comfortable having shown on my computer screen, especially in class). Also, most ads - like the majority on this site - are responsive and change determining on your search history and such. These are static. Change it out to a responsive ad like what's on the rest of the site and it's all good. "I believe in Auburn and love it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I totally understand the ads and whatever generates revenue to keep the boards up and running. However, the borderline-pornographic pics are a bit much and could get those who check from work or school in some trouble. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayMac Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 And what's with the obsession with Melissa McCarthy articles? It's ridiculous. I hope she isn't related to you, @McCarthy. No offense, if she is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildwing64 Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I'm sure I had this one come up: "14 people who DIED after taking stupid selfies!" Yeah, because that makes for pleasant early morning reading. -- Also I noticed the mobile site sometimes highlights posts with a flag. I tapped one to see what it does, and almost accidentally reported a post. D'oh. PotD: 24/08/2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The picture with the lady hanging over the waterfall has her hair down in one shot, and up in the selfie (or vice-versa maybe). It's like you can't even trust these people!

BBTV Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 For some reason these just started appearing to me today. Got a a nice surprise at work when scantily clad mail-order Russian women appeared on my screen with messages explaining why Slavic girls make the best lovers or something like that. Granted, they were attractive, but I'll be restricting my daytime use to mobile only (which means when I'm pooping) until this is resolved - which is probably a good thing, because even without the ads I probably shouldn't be on the site at work anyway! 1 "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

CS85 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I wonder if there's a way to get around that, but I can't think of one. ublock origin, and/or ghostery for web browsers. No known way of getting around it on mobile. Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.
