Wtf ads everywhere!

I have been with this forum since the beginning and this is my home bass till this day. Ive seen people come and go and the site get sold. Long story short i think its a bit ridiculous that on my brand new Retina display macbook pro laptop that its nearly impossible to use the forums because its so laggy from pop up ads shooting out the sides and bottom of the page every time i click a link. I get that the site makes its money on advertising but no ones gonna come anymore if the site is unusable.

Tell somebody.

I use Firefox on PC and Safari or duckduckgo on iPad and there are no pop ups, only a few ads on the upper right.

No pop ups here and I use Firefox under Windows XP. I must have them turned off some how but I do not remember what I did.

Look here:

adblock Plus for firefox, chrome, I.E, Safari, and Android is your friend. Try it. You'll like it.

This belongs more in off topic. I am not to familiar with Apples ios but for PC I am using firefox and have no issues. Just the normal banner at the top, bottom and the side banner on the right. No pop ups though.
