mn jumping about on the screen.

I keep clicking on the wrong thread. Every time I load a new mn page it jumps up and down two or three timeswith a bit of lag between each jump so I end up clicking on random threads and ads. As mn takes quite a while to load each page its getting very frustrating.

ipad safari.

Hi there OhYouBadBadKitten - that's great. Thank you! You can either post it here on the thread or email it to [email protected]. Just pop the thread title in the subject line. Posting it here is probably easier if you're able to though. Thanks again!

Hi both - thanks for this. Looks like this particular ad is causing quite a bit of trouble. Does anyone have a screenshot?

Becca19962014 · 08/02/2016 20:15

The ad is Aquila. Ive noticed the same thing. It's also freezing my iPad and I cannot stop it from appearing.

BoreOfWhabylon · 07/02/2016 18:34

It seems to be the one with the rocket that's the worst for me Becca

@OhYouBadBadKitten

thank you Iona. Nothing to add, though it does seem to be connected with the advert at the top of the page.

Hi Kitten - is there a particular ad you've noticed causing it, or just ads from that spot in general?

BoreOfWhabylon · 07/02/2016 15:28

Yep. ipad and safari.

Also keeps freezing.

MooseyMouse · 07/02/2016 15:27

Me too. Safari iPad.

This has been happening to me for weeks, it's driving me nuts. Lots of vertical jumping, iPad 2 & Safari.

Hi folks,

Sorry we've not got back to you yet about this. Tech are looking into it at the moment and we'll post here again as soon as we have any answers. In the meantime, please do add any detail about your experience of this issue on the thread - it will all help in working out what's going on. Thanks for your patience.

WildeWoman · 28/01/2016 12:13

Basically - the vertical jumping seems to be while it loads the banner ad at the top.
The horizontal jumping seems to follow, while it loads side ads, which squishes my post, then, it irons out my post under the side ads - gosh, it's hard to explain!

OhYouBadBadKitten · 28/01/2016 12:09

yes wildewoman, that happens to me too on chrome on the pc with an adblocker on
On safari on the ipad no adblocker it jumps about all over the place.

WildeWoman · 28/01/2016 12:08

Just observed it closely there. Hmm

It went up
Then down to post above mine
Then showed my post
Then sort of ironed out the post across the page if you know what I mean? Post box was sort of short and fat, then it went out long and thin.

Lol - I'm not explaining myself well.

WildeWoman · 28/01/2016 12:06

Say for e.g. I'm replying to a thread. Once I hit 'Post Message', it sort of seems to go up to the top of the thread, stay there for a few seconds, then comes down to the bottom of the thread, to my post.

It is teaching me patience though.

321zerobaby · 28/01/2016 12:02

Thanks for starting the thread, thought it was just me! Safari and iPad Air here.

WildeWoman · 28/01/2016 12:02

It's the same on everything I use. Even worse on IE. Same on my galaxy smartphone - don't know what that uses though.
