Got a new one here, for me at least. Huge ads taking up top half of screen, I understand there are some pretty big ads but this one stays static and doesn’t scroll.

Once a scrolling ad appears, you’re left with an entire screen of advert as per screenshot Confused

@ReeseWitherfork

Came here to see if anyone else had this problem today (or to ask if not). I’ve never had this problem before and it’s making the site unusable.
Same here! Was coming on to see if others are having this issue. Please sort it out MN.

@BuanoKubiamVej

What's even worse is that it makes composing posts virtually impossible because the keyboard takes up the other half of the screen.
Was just coming to say identical words man. Properly annoying

I’ve had the distressing cow, now I’m faced with the confusing sheep. Very farm themed here! Mobile site using safari on an iPhone

@FlissMumsnet If it helps, for me it's always the banner ad from right at the top of the page that does it. (Tonight anyway)
I'm on Android (Samsung), using the website via Chrome.

@CheesecakeAddict

Without my glasses I thought I had a giant 420 friendly pig. I think it might be straw though?? Or is mn trying to entice the cool crowd?
Nah I’m with you. That pig looks buzzed.

Wtf is it advertising?

Allmyarseandpeggymartin · 07/04/2022 20:45

I’ve had the fucking cows all day now. I can’t even easily see what they are trying to flog me!

Site is super laggy to the point of being unusable too!

ExhaustedChameleon · 07/04/2022 20:45
