Mobile site - hard to click thread title -page jumping

What's happening now is that the ad banner doesn't load at all but, but as soon as you touch the screen to scroll it page refreshes with the ad and the whole thing jumps.

Was still a problem for me earlier as well. I scroll down the page, only to find myself back at the top again. Really irritating.

Samsung Galaxy something, on mobile site.

Or

Throws phone across room

Samsung Galaxy something, on the website too.

And me. Samsung galaxy y. Website not app .

Still a problem for me

Ooh, speedy Rowan!

It's been doing it for ages for me. Glad to see it's not my phone!

S4, Android 4.3, samsung browser.

My phone does this all the time. Every page that loads flicks to the top at least three times and I'm forever clicking on the wrong button.

I've lost count of the threads I've wanted to read but hidden by accident fat fingers don't help

I think i know what's happening. The ad at the top doesn't load right away ,and when it does it generates a page refresh.
The only way round it at present is to wait till all that has happened before selecting a thread. It's really annoying though!!!

What's the mn policy on adverts? I've given up using it on my laptop as there are so many, and they are getting much more obtrusive, and now i'm getting them on my nexus.

Yep, the banner ad loads in a second after the rest of the page and it all down shifts. I keep hitting things I don't want.

It's happening to me as well, when the advert at the top loads. Really irritating. Doesn't seem very high on the list of mn priorities though...

Android 4.0.3 on an HTC Sensation, Safari. It's driving me bonkers. It's the ads at the top of the page. When they load they drop the rest of the page down to make room, so whatever link you think you've clicked, you've actually ended up clicking something a few lines above it. Totally infuriating.

You can get round it by waiting for the ad to load/page to drop down before clicking, but it's annoying and makes navigation tedious and slow.

It's doing it again! Not in active convos this time, thankfully, but when hitting 'next' to go to the next page of a multi-page thread I actually get the message box almost every time. Incredibly annoying. Galaxy S3, Android 4.3, Google Chrome.

(incidentally, when this last happened, I think it was some kind of font/text size display issue - you could workaround by zooming in or out to make the text adjust itself to the page differently and then hit the link without trouble; also if you didn't and just tapped the link straight off, you could briefly see the text on the page adjusting itself differently on the page, thereby meaning the spot on the screen you tapped was now taken up by a different link, before it loaded the new page. If that makes sense as an explanation - I hope tech knows what I mean because I appreciate that is not the world's best bug report.)

Hmm, a very quick test seems to suggest that this is only an issue on multi page threads?

Its doing it again
Not sure what use a screenshot would be?
Clicked on "bookmark" it changed colour, then "last page" highlighted itself and went there instead.

I'm wondering if it is some sort of weird coding thing where what you see doesn't quite line up with where the links actually are?

I think adverts were fully loaded....

This is driving me round the twist too. I've been sent to stack of pages I don't want or had to scroll down the page 2 or 3 times.

I have this problem too every couple of months it does it for a while. Annoying.

It's happening to me too on an android phone, probably for a month or two. I tried to click on a thread link earlier today and got the log out button instead. Thankfully the site asked if I was sure I wanted to before the damage was done.
