Guitar Gear Forum

Does anyone else have some ads pop up on the bottom of the screen on their ipad? I understand needing some ad revenue, which I thought that's what the ads at the top were for. Now there's one popping up at the bottom any time I go to read a new thread?

iPhone ftw

No ads popping up. Suck it marketers

Have you ever noticed how slowly over time, your post tone and grammar shifted from pasty English guy to full-blown Asian woman?

Nope it's lazy typing on an ipad. "There are adds on the forum now" is correct I probably changed my sentence halfway through and did not check my post. I am slightly dyslexic. Which doesn't help. But mostly lazy when posting.

I am hardly pasty lol

A couple weeks ago I was occasionally getting candy crush pop up ads in the middle of my phone, but I haven't gotten any of those in a while

Posting from my old iPhone now, I am getting bigger pop ups on this. But its not a huge problem.

Pasty? Maybe.

Cheeky kunt? Absolutely.

Make sure you read the terms and conditions.

I didn't mind it when it was just an ad at the top but now it's pretty much unusable on an iPad. Having shit pop up at the bottom of the screen on EVERY PAGE is annoying as hell.

I don't know what iPhone you're using, but on mine I have the top banner, a bottom click box sometimes, and once or twice a week a pop up like an alarm that asks if I want to download a game/app

I still use it, but having 3 adds at one time sucks when it happens

I only get the random top ad. Nothing else.

I am on an old school 3GS

I switched ad providers yesterday so the Candy Crush crap is gone for good. There was a pop up right after the switch but I turned it off. Right now there should be only a small text-only ad on top of the mobile screen. If you are getting anything else, I'd say clear your phone's cache, it should go away. If it doesn't let me know.

So far so good!
