Sorry if this is in the wrong place but not sure where else to put it.

I pay my subs for the forum even though I haven’t been on much. However after visiting this morning, I realise I’m still getting bombarded with spam ads and pop ups on the site. Surely if I’m paying I should be getting these?? At least 30% of the screen is taken up by the things.

Can this be sorted or are we expected to pay and also accept them?

Regards,

Northern Phil

Surfshark has a really effective clean web setting that sorts these out and also auto rejects cookie consents for you which is great.

Me too... Spoils the forum IMO!
 
And I don’t know why but the site becomes almost unusable with the ads, I mean that the pages don’t respond to touch and trying to write anything is so frustrating you give up.
