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.

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.

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!

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.

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

OhYouBadBadKitten · 05/02/2016 22:16

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

@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 18:34

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

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.

BeccaMumsnet · 09/02/2016 12:26

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

Becca19962014 · 09/02/2016 12:48

Becca I can't as MN doesn't like my screenshots - they convert into numbers and symbols Confused

OhYouBadBadKitten · 09/02/2016 13:27

IonaMumsnet · 09/02/2016 15:57

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!

OhYouBadBadKitten · 09/02/2016 17:13

have emailed as would have had to crop my tabs out, they are a bit of a giveaway as to where I live!
