The giant foot!!
I had a moment of clarity when I was reading a shitty thread about someone being bitchy about their DM two posts at a time with half my screen covered by a giant foot.
What have I become.
I'm out.

HowIsItMarchAlready · 07/04/2022 22:52

So annoying

Adarajames · 07/04/2022 22:54

Have reported my post about it in hopes they’ll respond

Howeverdoyouneedme · 07/04/2022 22:58

Those ads are bullshit

Namesrus · 07/04/2022 22:59

What the actual fuck, is this some new MN format? Can’t see a thing, the ad box doesn’t even have anything in it on my iPhone it’s just a huge grey box blocking half the screen.

eastegg · 07/04/2022 23:02

I’ve got a woman in a red cap leaning on something. Absolutely no clue as to what the ad is for. This is awful. Wtf is MN doing?

eastegg · 07/04/2022 23:03

Woah! Little pods in the sky now!

Pinzotti · 07/04/2022 23:05

Use adblocker with Firefox

Itsnottheendoftheworldisit · 07/04/2022 23:28

So annoying.

GodspeedJune · 07/04/2022 23:31

Same. Can anyone recommend an adblocker for iPhone?

And meanwhile... sssshhh... they have gone from the app Star

Why is no one from MNHQ interested?

AlmostAlwyn · 08/04/2022 00:00

Awful ads today! What has happened?! Please fix it MNHQ!

SinisterBumFacedCat · 08/04/2022 00:04

I’m really starting to wonder what that woman in the red cap is advertising as she looks like she is trying to break into an atm with a hat pin. And the log cabin pictures? Confused

Red cap lady is advertising credit cards or something - if you shrink the page font size to 50% it’ll shrink the ad too. Confirms no “x” to close them though. Bead show MN 😡😡😡
Tippletopple · 08/04/2022 00:10

*Bad show, I mean. A bead show does sound random enough to appear as a giant MN ad though.

Tippletopple · 08/04/2022 00:16

Just seen in the other thread Mumsnet are looking into it Smile

Verite1 · 08/04/2022 00:18

I keep getting dr vranjes. Can’t tell if it’s a perfume or a liqueur. And the words of the advert then keep scrolling underneath. The site is unusable!

Donotgogentle · 08/04/2022 00:26

I’m not getting these ads on Premium but I feel sad to have missed out on those cows.

frostedfruits · 08/04/2022 00:39

Yesicantevensee what I'm typing here now astheadcover the box. If itsfull typos itscause of the GIANT AD
I'm gonna have to come off MNnow as itsimpissible

I’d fucking love it if it was a picture of a bead show, they are my favourite things! Grin

50p and a lb of grapes to anyone who can accurately explain what is going on in this picture?

Obviously it’s an advert for a company which will make clothes to match your hair colour.
somethingwittynotshitty · 08/04/2022 01:41

Third time lucky... My first two attempts to say that this is still an issue have disappeared into the ether! It's still an issue.

Rafaisthekingofclay · 08/04/2022 01:54

So many cows. Make them go away.

DropYourSword · 08/04/2022 02:06

Big belly for me.

I'd LOVE a cow at this point!

It's making mumsnet almost unusable
