Too much

Dear Asean Now

 

please think again how many ads and other windows you want to show us.

I just had to open a couple of new instances of this forum to be able to continue at all.

If I have to close advertisement windows one by one in a specific order to be able to close other windows, then it's just too much!

And I work on a relatively big desktop screen. How awful will this look on a smaller screen?

yes, I just got that yellow thingy also, and simply 'x'/closed it, without doing anything else.  Not sure that was even an AN pop up, and most things are blocked on my PC & phone, the rare times I use the phone.

 

One reason I don't use phone & phone apps, nothing but adds.

I wanted to close it. But there was no X because there was another window, a Banggood ad. And when I closed that Banggood ad there was another window under that which I couldn't close. I also couldn't close the mostly black windows on the right (see above screenshot).

 

I work with computers all day and night and I "fixed" it. But I think it is the responsibility of this forum owner to think about what they are doing and the user experience.

Asean Now has by far the most advertisement of any website which I regularly use. They could make it more user friendly if they would want to do that - and spend the money for a decent web developer. 

It is a continuous issue on this platform.

Not for me. I had to open a few other windows of AN (which all had this pop-up) and then I could go back and use the 'x' to close them out. But first repeated attempts to close it on that lone window wasn't working until multiple windows were opened.

 

What a nuisance, and I already provided my email when I signed up back in the TV days. Handles gmail better.....pffft, what a joke.

 

NOTE: I'm using Chrome on PC with AdBlocker.

This is not good, the commercial block parts of my picture, and my option to click for next picture without going back and click on the next one I want to see.
