Re: Annoying Ad

Ad free membership kicks in automatically once you exceed a certain number of posts.  We have adverts as that's one way in which we finance the cost of running the forum. As you seem to be ad free I"ll take a peek and see what the probeom is.

Can I ask do any other ad free members see the ads?

I keep getting dating ads and keep deleting them but no sooner have they been deleted  then they keep popping up again.       :o

We are having the same problem Hugo, I was starting to wonder what Mr M had been looking at, so that explains it  ;)

As I logged in now a new dating website appeared and although I keep deleting them they still bounce back even though I never open them in the first place.

I suspect the explanation may be a simple one....the members are viewing the forum without being logged in?

I've just tested it with a dummy account, no ads are displayed to adfree members when logged in but are displayed when not logged in.
