Ad loading makes site unusably slow

Firefox on a Mac.

Site has slowed down tremendously, constantly getting spinning cursor, can't load threads or type easily as it takes forever to show up on the screen, because it's busy trying to load some ad. Lots of the b.scorecard.research and names like that listed at the bottom of the browser where it shows what it's trying to load. I can't see all the ads so don't know what it's trying to do after that is loaded, but it is doing something in the background, possibly autoplay videos, I don't know, but it takes up so much resource that it makes the page unusable. It has taken 5 minutes just to get this message typed. No other sites or applications running, and no problems with internet connection or any other sites.

Sorry to hear this. How very tedious! We'll pass this on to Tech. In the meantime, have you tried using Chrome? That often seems to be a bit more whizzy....

Thanks Runaway. At the moment this seems to be a problem at your end rather than ours (as we're not getting lots of reports of problems) but we'll keep an eye out.
