Venting/Gripes: Advertisements/ Popups. NOTE: No tech support here. See Post #1! - Page 6

The Schick Quattro advert is incredibly annoying. Even when I log in, the ad pops up and refuses to close. I make sure not to hover over the ad and it still pops up! Please do something about it! Please!

**BetteT** · 14-02-2012

If you want tech support regarding it not closing. please go to the other thread and follow the instructions ... See post #1 of this thread.

But ... yeah, it's very annoying ... I hate it too. The good news is that most ads are only here for a few weeks or less. It will be gone, soon.

i understand that ads support the existence of the website, and there's no way around that, but......
why can't the ads remain on the side? on the bottom? on the top? between the posts? - i don't mind as long as it does not interfere with the browsing of the website.....
but why must they cover the whole screen? not only that, there was a point when it covered the screen with every page i opened within the same browsing session.

Yahoo France does the same crap, ugh!!! They're more artsy-fartsy and it doesn't cover the entire screen but still nonsense

The current one is SO annoying. Every time I'm switching from one thread to another it just pops up. ugh.

ALAUU · 27-06-2012

^ Yes I agree.

**BetteT** · 27-06-2012

I agree ... and I'm a moderator!

bedtimestorynyc · 27-06-2012

i'm sorry but are you friggin kidding me with this ad??? jesus!!!!!
with every page i open??? really???

Littleathquakes · 27-06-2012

it's really excessive. I understand the need for adverts, obviously, but even on other vbulletin forums, i've never seen/didn't know the ads can become this intrusive.

**HeatherAnne** · 28-06-2012

This has to be some kind of glitch with this Nordstrom Rack ad?, It certainly wasn't doing this before today. Well annoyed.

vogue28 · 28-06-2012

Since I have Safari AdBlock installed, I cannot see a single advertisement when browsing tFS. It's brilliant and I recommend it.

luckyme · 28-06-2012

the nordstrom rack ad is going to drive many of us away if its current placement of every single link view continues. it truly sucks and i hope is resolved quickly.

LittleMsSunshine · 28-06-2012

YEP same here, wasnt happening yesterday so this is new for me today, least im not the only one

zigzag · 28-06-2012

Super annoying. I'll be checking out if it persists.

Moderator Note:

This is not the tech support thread for ads, but I wanted to let you know that it's been reported to management ... they will check on it on Monday (someone's on vacation, I guess) and hopefully they will get it fixed.

Do we need this Nordstrom pop up Hello Summer ad every single time a new page is opened???
