clicking 'active' on mobile site keeps taking me to the ad which is at the bottom of the page.

Anyone else? It's when I've scrolled to the bottom of a thread and the ad is behind the active button. I'm definitely not clicking on the ad it's always the active button. It's happening a lot, not every time but very regularly. Annoying! I'm on android, Samsung s6.

Hi there,

Sorry for the delay in getting to this one.

Can you let us know which ad you're seeing? Any info would help, but a screenshot would be even better.

Doesn't matter what ad. It's done it since the bottom bar was added.

ApologiesToInsectLife · 20/12/2015 15:47

Yes the ad doesn't seem to make any difference - it's just whatever ones are at the bottom of the page.

Just wanted to bump this because it's still happening a lot.

I have found that I need to swipe the page up so that the ad is above the Active/Watching/I'm On tabs before I select one. If the ad is hovering underneath the ad, it ALWAYS opens the ad. I'm on Silk browser on a Kindle Fire.
