Bit scared to say this in case I'm wrong, but I haven't seen 'that' ad in quite a while...

icklekid · 18/04/2016 15:30

I get the same as spottedzebra black screen when on Samsung phone (on chrome) when I scroll up or down if goes but very annoying! Thought it was just me!

Queenbean · 18/04/2016 19:24

Ended up installing an ad blocker. Sorry, MNHQ - I don't begrudge you your ad revenue, but that Crieff Hydro ad was just everywhere Sad

Hi all - we're so sorry for the delay with these. They were very tricky to block. Has anyone seen them since yesterday?

Queenbean · 19/04/2016 17:38

Hi Becca

Yes, saw on active threads earlier today - it was a different website again. Will post if I see it again.

Looks like the parameters of the ad boxes aren't working properly on mobiles rather than being down to a specific ad provider

Aaarghhh! They're back. Now getting a bloody massive motorbike one.

Only in my teenage years of fantasy did I want a motorbike sexy biker

I'm too drunk to click on the link but will when sober enough tomorrow so you can KILL THEM ALL!

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 22/04/2016 22:12

Me too,keeps popping up all over the place. Arghhhhh!

FarelyKnuts · 23/04/2016 20:16

Still happening. Every third ad or so

icklekid · 23/04/2016 21:54

Every time I load a new page it is blacked out unless I scroll. I know this is a separate issue but was mentioned earlier in the thread.

Hi again folks. So sorry this is still an issue for lots of you. We've let Tech know about this again so they'll get on the case as soon as they can with it. In the meantime, please do keep the screengrabs coming - they're really helpful.

EmpressOfTheSevenOceans · 24/04/2016 08:19

I keep getting this one for STA Travel, Iona.

A pp suggested that the problem might be parameters, not the ads themselves. Is that possible?

EmpressOfTheSevenOceans · 24/04/2016 08:20

Sorry.
