Is everyone else getting a ridiculous amount of ads trying to scroll through posts now?

This post that talks about the ads. If you donate $10 or more to the site via PayPal, the moderators will make sure you don't see all of the ads. Well worth the $10 imo, for a multitude of different reasons.

Thread 'Google Ads'

Hello All,

After 20 years of being Google ad free, I've have finally activated Google Ads on the website to help generate revenue. Visitors and members will see the ads during their visit, but for members who donate to the site in any amount, ads will not display for them. Thank you for your understanding!

-Jeff, Admin

Management should really reconsider the ads thing. I've never seen a forum with such aggressive ads. Sometimes it's hard to see where the threads are. If I was a new person looking for a Grady forum and this popped up I'd leave immediately. Wall to wall ads with little breaks in the middle for content. It's out of control.

I totally agree. I’ve been on his 2007 and I’ve never seen anything like this. I thought it was my phone and that’s why I asked. Get paid to run ads and then get paid to make ads go away. I rarely come on here anymore because the ads are so aggressive.

Yep. I don't have a problem with ads, but whatever setting has been applied to this forum needs to be dialed back. I have literally never seen a forum so flooded with huge-format ads.
 
They are definitely quite aggressive and the website when using my computer was almost unusable before because there were so many ads popping up and moving all over the place. I didn't mind paying the $10 because it goes towards a good cause, but sometimes I'll check the site on my phone while at work and yes, it can be a bit ridiculous when not signed on.
