    Nothing here with Chrome, but a banner on lower screen on Safari!

    I HATE how adverts get forced down your throat day in day out, TV, Internet all of them! Everywhere you look bloody adverts for shite you don't want or need, an one more thing maybe if insurance companies spent less money of fkin adverts we'd not have such high rates!! A holes the lot of em..

    (can you tell they wind me right up!)

    Not wrong mate! The reason I don't and can't handle .net! Having to guide the mouse around highlighted words for pop ups and all was the final cheese me off! I know the site has to make money to pay its way and God knows maybe I should pay something to help out as a free loading member.

    Man I feel grumpy as today, must be the thought of two solid months of Christmas adds! lol

    Folk have also made a donation in the past :(

    I did a while back but not done since tbh. Get the advert banner at the top, that's fine, but this is just stupid as gets in the way.....

    Hiya,

    Sorry guys I'm just testing out some new ads - they should be discreet like before and no pop ups. I'll need to fine tune them.

    Thanks,
    Rob.

    Thankfully I normally use Tapatalk to view the forum on the iPhone which is completely add free, it also makes it far easier to read
