Re: annoying pop up

I know the bit about having to have advertising to pay.... But I also agree this ad has got to go. It covers up messages in the post. A big reason I don't frequent other sites is because of these annoying ads in the forums. Buy your supplies from iboats. If they make a profit we can request them to keep the ads to a minimum.

LOL, the pop up has been covered on other threads.

I have a feeling you guys are using your phones based on the fact that you can not close the ad and it blocks the screen.

There is no solution as of yet for mobile users. If you are on a computer there is an X on the right side of the ad to close it.

Just click the X in the upper right hand corner of the ad and it will go away for the day. I agree it is a bit annoying, but I would rather close the ad than have to pay for the site. It is a fair trade for me.

^^^^^^^ X2
Small price to pay to keep thiese forums free. 1 ad that doesn't come back when closed isn't bad at all.

This is exactly right. I have no problem dealing with the ad on my computer or even my iPad, but on my iPhone it's next to impossible to make go away and makes some threads impossible to read. Top & side banner adds I can deal with - pop-ups are BAD BAD BAD.
