AIBU - what is it with the ads tonight?!

[Bayleaf25]

I’ve never had it before but literally ads on mumsnet covering the top half of the screen! Makes it really tricky to read on a phone.

Is it just me! AIBU? Anyone else having this problem today?

I was just looking for this thread! It’s ridiculous!

Thread in Site stuff about it. I can barely even see to type this as there is a woman covering half the page

I am, it's doing my head in! Hoping it's just a glitch as I cant see what I'm typing

Yes. It is very annoying.

I came on to post the exact same thing! Incredibly annoying and very weird adverts - my screen was obscured by the Obamas, I’m not even sure what they were advertising. I suspect it’s a tech glitch.

Same. It’s nuts.

I can hardly read anything

Yep Obamas here

My old woman pops up on every page. I wonder what she is advertising!

Now I have a plane

OMG yes. I was looking for a thread about it - what fresh hell is this?

I understand advertising is needed to keep the site free, but if it renders the site unusable its bloody pointless!

I think this man is probably sick of me staring at him.

Glad it's not just me. I was wondering if it was my phone

Yes, can barely see anything because of the massive advert taking up half the screen.

My eyes!

In fact I've just downloaded an adblocking browser. MUCH better.

Yes I’m getting this too, this site is getting harder to use. Usually it’s the adverts stopping the page loading but now this. Very annoying!

They’re on it! There’s a thread in site stuff 🙂

Oh now that is annoying. I was actually interested in one of the ads! Don’t know what it was for but there was a giraffe print carpet ❤️❤️❤️ Is that a thing?? Zoomed in for closer look then it buggered off!! Now that is not fair!

All ad, no Mumsnet

Glad they're on it

My ads giving it the whole “I’m watching you”. She’s quite intense.

Getting two lines of text here.

Can't see what I'm typing because of them. Getting on my bastard nerves!

I've got a sentence. A whole sentence [smug]

I've found if I turn my tablet to portrait instead of landscape I can actually see the thread 👏👏👏
