They seem to have calmed down now, earlier was taking the ****.

Was not too happy when i scrolled down a thread to the forum link at the bottom, only to be greeted by lots of pair of **** etc.

(well, ok, the **** were nice, but work might not think so)

Totally agree with you. You can go into your user panel and click 'hide banners' it has cut alot out

It's not just you mate, they are totally over the top. On my laptop screen I have to scroll down just to get past the banners.

im using firefox and have only adbar at the top and a small one at the very bottom, speed is as quick as before for me. i think the ads are blocked as down the right hand side is a white space from top to bottom.

Blocking the ads via your options on here does bugger all. You need a browser ad blocker. Poor considering I have paid to use this site. Ads should be optional for full members.

Just need to restore my View my Scooby now. Shame that the data couldn't be saved/moved into the new garage thing. I shall reserve judgement but not overly impressed with the new forum so far.

On a positive the trader score is a good addition.

If the adverts make the subscriptions cheaper I am all up for that I don’t really notice them

I find hiding banners via UserCP kind of removes them, although im left with a large white area and have to scroll down to get to the top of the posts, which is a little annoying.
