Popular Post Evilbaz Posted February 17, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 17, 2015 You have ruined a valuable expat news source by allowing ads to obliterate the text. If you can't allow unobliterated browsing I bow to your blatant commercialism and will go elsewhere. I'm damn sure I will not be alone. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evilbaz Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 Many readable sources around. Do you like the popups covering the text of a news item? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 We don't serve popups on the forum. Can you please take a screen shot and post here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wow64 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I agree there are a lot of ads on here now.. and on the 1st post. Thanks Admin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverSure Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 There are ads now that change the line breaks to make the text field narrower, but never has an ad blocked text for me. I don't find it any problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I am finding this new ad format very unpleasant. Not going as far as the OP's reaction but it does definitely degrade the user experience in a non-trivial way.

rhodie Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 The ads were left justified which really was unpleasant. That seems to have been changed back to right justified. Lots more ads has made it a bit less readable, but I accept it is for free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with you both but I would use the word irritating rather than unpleasant I thought my Abine DNT Me was on the blink! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
