Last month we enabled some ads on the site and found that they were too invasive. They were disabled but have been reconfigured and will be returning shortly. They should be less present now and not obscure content.
Logged-in members see MUCH less advertising so be sure to log in.
The site is free and ads help cover the costs of keeping the board online. We need to find a balance.
If you are logged in and see something amiss please post up. Ads should not be in posts or over posts. It should be confined to sidebars and other locations so as to not interfere with reading and posting. Thanks for understanding
