Huge ads not scrolling

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

Me too! The cows, then Obamas, shed guy, yacht girls.
Very annoying as I can only see a few lines of the posts. And I haven’t the foggiest what any of it is advertising anyway, as there’s no text. It’s like someone’s weird photo album has taken over my phone.

Smokeahontas · 07/04/2022 21:07

Ummmm, the Obama’s and a kind looking elderly lady?

@BuanoKubiamVej

What's even worse is that it makes composing posts virtually impossible because the keyboard takes up the other half of the screen.
Me too. Had to give up replying to a thread today because I just couldn't see what I was writing. And now it's happening again. I'm typing this blind as a huge pointless ad is covering half the bloody screen.

Not a huge add for me, but the video of the woman cooking and mashing up carrot and chicken with cream or whatever she does turns my stomach

saraclara · 07/04/2022 21:15

I see that loads of people have beaten me to it. I'm typing this response blind as I can only see the keyboard and a hairstyle pic. Not a millimetre of the response box is visible.

RightOnTheEdge · 07/04/2022 21:15

I came here to see if anyone else had the same problem. I keep getting cows too and other random things.
Between that and the giant ads in the middle of the page I can hardly see any of the posts!

I'm getting this too and it's really pissing me off and ruining enjoyment of MN. I will not come back if this keeps happening.

JedEye · 07/04/2022 21:17

Agree it must be hackers. So annoying.

ABitDrunk · 07/04/2022 21:17

SO ANNOYING. The Obamas, cows, elderly woman glaring, first class airplane lounge? Wtf is going on?

Guess it will make me quit MN!

Whatadayyyy · 07/04/2022 21:17

Mumsnet, these are AWFUL! They make the site totally unusable and you will be losing users.

ABitDrunk · 07/04/2022 21:25

Oh fuck @Shitzngiggles I don't want that one.

iamme21 · 07/04/2022 21:27

I’ve also got the Obamas!

I think I’m finally done with mumsnet which might be a good thing! It’s impossible to use with the giant ads - you can’t respond to threads.
