    Some one please tell me if i need to lay off the wine and get some sleep

    Eta: I think it's because when I click the header to go to the main forums, I click too close to an ad that hasn't loaded and consumed a white space instead. Slloooooow it down bgd.
    Do you mean those annoying full-page ads with a black border and the cross right at the top? The URL for those has the current page plus 'google vignette' in it, then once the cross is clicked it goes to the page you were trying to get to. Really very annoying and I thought it was my fault for clicking in the wrong place too, but not. It just does that randomly

    Here is a trick if you are browsing LHC with Javascript disabled.

    Under

    Forum -> Forum Actions -> General Settings -> Message Editor Interface

    change the setting from "Enhanced Interface - Full WSYWYG Editor" to "Basic Editor - A simple text box". This causes the board's software not to try to alter the formatting. You will need to enter any formatting codes.

    Back from a break and this is what I see. Three ads for every two posts. Very annoying. Edit: And last I knew there is no ad block for Chrome on Android so if that's changed someone please let me know.

    I just tried logging in on Android Firefox and I don't see any ads. I don't remember if I have a Firefox Android ad blocker, but I don't think so.

    Maybe try Firefox on your phone?

    Wow Amaryllis! That's ridiculous. Mine currently has one at the top, a small square ad to the side of the first post of the page, and one down the bottom. I just checked and my Chrome updating reminder is red I'm rather hesitant to update, if that's how it's might turn out!

    They've calmed down since. Maybe they were just the forum's way of welcoming me back.

    Me too. I can pretty easily tune out the others, but not those.
