Euromillions advert

Tonight, on Active threads, I have adverts top, right, and left, of my reading panel. It's reduced the panel to such a small size I can't read it.

Please MN HQ, is there any way you can reduce this advert?

Sorry last paragraph isn't clear - my device won't render these ads properly if I attempt to resize texts which is making it impossible for me to access threads in chat currently. Though I'm able to here I expect that'll be gone soon as well.

Obviously the site is not disabled friendly anymore and I cant install adblocker my device us too old and no money to upgrade.

I'm also, for personal reasons, not happy to be seeing MN now generating revenue through gambling, you should also be aware that ad will make MN impossible to use in libraries or anywhere which blocks gambling sites.

I was just coming on to say about this as well. I'm going to try and attach a screenshot for MNHQ.

It really makes the site unworkable for me because it's impossible for me to increase font size and for my device not to end up shutting down due to rendering problems.

Just coming to start a thread about this. Talk page just kind of sits on top of the Euromillions ad, moving about, all small. Makes site unusable.

Highly annoying advert, not the usual sort of thing you see and makes visiting the page a really poor experience

Those ads are really interfering with the usability of the site. Scrolling is very difficult on my iPad and it keeps freezing
