MexiRoll6 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 You guys need to get your web master to do something with the Toyo Tires ad. When it comes up it covers my entire screen and there is no X to click out of it. I have to go back to the previous page and lose whatever I was posting at the time it pops up. Get a clue here guys, out of control ads are no way to treat your customers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a clue here guys, out of control ads are no way to treat your customers. A few things: 1. There is no webmaster. This is a volunteer run site. 2. We are removing the ad network that has that ad. We should have it removed in a day or so. 3. There are nicer ways to make this request. We aren't charging anything for any of this and we aren't selling anything here. Like I mentioned before we have a team of volunteers that help out, so we are open to feedback. It just helps when the feedback isn't typed out the way your post was.

Lupz27 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Max I can't take this anymore, trying to click on a tiny x to close an ad that freezes my screen unless I close the ad is just way to frustrating, I have sausage fingers, and doing this on my IPad leads to me clicking the ad instead of closing it. I brought this to your attention once before, and got no answer on what was going on, I only use my IPad, and this will eventually lead to me leaving this site. I get advertising on your site, but it does not have to be obnoxious to this point that 1 out of every 3 times I open a post this happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tire ad is a major problem and seems as though it intentionally makes it difficult to close. I've had to actually close the browser or tab and go back in just to clear I. Not as much of a problem on my Windows Phone though. I will try that ad pop up blocker the other poster mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRJETS Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I feel the OP. Also, the pop up ads comes out of nowhere and if you are not prepare to take it, it might give you a heart attack. I don't know if that is on purpose or what but that is a low blow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We actually discussed this and it seems to be a break in communication with the site and the advertisers. Let us talk to them again and we will do the best we can. Sorry man. I too have sausage fingers. Have you tried using your penis to type instead of your fingers? Works pretty reasonable for me except when I ride the bus.

I don't remember you bringing this up before, I get a lot of messages sorry that I missed it apparently. I was trying out a new ad network, and they are complete garbage. I will get their ad code removed from the site tonight and we will go back to the ad network that we used to use. We never had any problems with them.

It was annoying me as well....basically I tried out a new ad network for a promise of a much higher cpm. They actually paid exactly the same as the old one and the complaints went up by 200%. Not a good combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
