We'll try to get this ad removed, but with this ad network there is no automated interface to remove specific ads.
With that said however, I just wanted to say it is ads like this, and those of our local sponsors that fund the operation of this site. With the recent switchover to the new forums, we've significantly reduced the number of ads. "Intrusive" ads typically pay more.
In an ideal world, we would have zero ads!

I refuse to browse any website that denies ad blockers. Yes it says prohibited in the rules and if that gets me removed so be it.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
These "invasive" ads has happened a few times on this site and I prefer to not be annoyed and browse in peace.
Also while there maybe funding is it really enough to help offset costs?
I just had a full page aveeno ad! I hate ads.
Simply put, yes. But we do evaluate which ad networks are intrusive and move on elsewhere if we can't find an optimal solution.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
From our perspective, it's users first, even at times when we have to cover costs ourselves. We try our best to find an optimal balance.

the box on the bottom right is fine if youre using a computer but the aveno ones literally split paragraphs haha
Of course, like I said I would prefer to browse in peace too without ads, but the reality is the website doesn't exist with ads. I just posted what I did because quite frankly I'm surprised there are complaints on here when we have such minimal ads in the grand scheme of things. As rage2 mentioned, user experience is pretty important to us so we don't want the site to be overwhelmed by ads.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Easy solution: patreon.
I browse with ad-block on, guilt-free, since I poined up a buncha money for a sponsorship.
Beyond.ca has a really good user experience and I truly appreciate it. Besides I like the lotion ads.

Got that one too, right after a corner ad. Closed the big pop-up and got another corner ad... Annoying AF
The bottom right corner ones are whatever and I don't care too much about them but the ones that show up splitting the whole paragraph or the entirety of the page are the messed up ones.
Sorry to say I too find it really annoying. Intrusive. I don't mind the sponsors ads at the top but the pop up ones or the screen splitters ( haven't had the full page ones yet ) just piss me off.
