Can you block a single advert?

Is there a way to block an advert and have an alternative, like you can do on most other platforms?

All of a sudden there is an advert with a duck and cigarettes that is utterly turning my stomach to the point that I’m reluctant to browse the site, and it seems to be on every page of every thread.

I have quite a severe phobia around cigarettes, even writing the word is difficult.

I realise this isn’t going to bother everyone but it would be helpful if there was an opt out for specific adverts.

Hello @WingsofRain with Google ads, there is an x in the top right corner - if you click on this, you'll see an option to not see that ad again. As for the ad you describe, it does sound like something we'd block and so if you see it again, could you please share a screenshot (if you can bear it) along with the page you saw it on. Thank you.

Thanks for the screenshot @WingsofRain . We'll see if we can locate the ad now. If anyone is able to click on it and share the url that would be enormously helpful, too. Thanks!
