What's up with these new ad's?

[Satsui Ryu]

This is pretty egregious. When browsing on my phone it makes this site almost unusable with ads on top and bottom of the screen. This place is already an ad riddled mess, no need to add more stuff to make it difficult to use the site.

Yeah, I think this might be the final straw. I was already getting burnt out on Sherdog but ads on the top and bottom of the screen? Wtf man. They gotta change this.

 

[FierceRedBelt]

This is the worst I've seen since the old days of the internet. What is going on here?

 

[Drain Bamage]

Yeah its bullshit

Shrinking down the window? Not good. Can't see half the screen.

 

[Ace70 V2]

And you try to close them, only for it to open of a new window anyways. Pissing me off

Thank you. This is the kind of thing we need. I've sent it upstairs to Tech.

The scree is read-able for a few seconds, then the ad's takeover. If that helps.

On any desktop browser this ad takes over the page and makes unusable. Popup blocker doesnt help.

Yes that's what I have. I'll be done if they don't fix it. Driving me nuts. Can't even read some of the titles of threads.

I think others have provided enough input regarding this. But it trips me out that the admins of the site need the users to tell them what they are experiencing on the site regrading ads. They may want to really reassess how they implement ads. If they know that little of what's going on that sounds like a major potential security issue.

Yes it's whack!

 

[Reffson]

Still broken! Fix Please!

Seems to be back to normal now. THX

1) St. Louis,MO
2) Android Mobile
3) Chrome
4) Ads in general
5) No
6) The problem is you now have a popup ad on the top AND bottom of the mobile screen and each ad is one of those annoying ones with the little tiny X's noone can press. So on my mobile phone which is already a relatively small screen as soon as I go to Sherdog 2/3 of my page is covered by ads I cannot x out of without accidentally pressing them which opens the dumbass ad I did not want to see. Do you think this makes people want to buy stuff? It makes your site frustrating to use and more trouble than it's worth. If I wasn't such a longtime Sherdog degenerate I would have just cancelled my account but I've been trying to remain a loyal user. It won't last much longer though.
7)All of Sherdog
8)Since the ads were implemented

4) Ads in general

That's not a complaint I can work with. It has to be specifically targeting intrusive ads, so that I can bring it up to Tech and go "Visit Lauderdale is a huge problem right now." But ads in general, tragically, that's not an actionable issue on my end.

Zoom in first then click the x
