Strobing/flickering adverts

4 replies

Not sure it will show up on a screen shot (I will try) but I am getting the side bar adverts flickering and strobing as if they're trying to expand but can't. Doesn't matter if I am mousing over the ad or not. Randomly stops and starts. It is really annoying and the flickering strobing effect isn't great for some folks eyes/brains!

Hi @WiddlinDiddlin if you can't grab a screenshot, please can you tell us a bit more about the ads? What are the ads for and are they just on certain threads?

Hi again, everyone,

We've blocked some of these ads this morning so hopefully you should be seeing it less now, but if it appears again, we'd be really grateful if you could send us the url to the ad itself or if not a link to the thread where you saw it and we'll get any new ones blocked asap.

Hi all

Please can you click the adverts (you can do this in incognito) to get the URL for us? This helps us locate and block it. As they are ad choice adverts, they are tailored and make it difficult for us to find them.

Also, it is worth clearing your cache as this resets your browser memory, and implements any blocks we've made our end. Could you please give this a go?

Hi all,

Thanks for letting us know - we've had some URLs shared on another thread in helpscout so we're looking into blocking it again now.
