    Is anyone else getting Ad's in the middle of their forum posts?

    Yesterday I noted for the first time that I was getting annoying Ad's showing up right in the posts that I am reading"

    Depending on the length of the thread and number of posts, they can show up twice.

    Annoying if they have just slipped in there, but I understand if they're a way to create revenue for the site.

    Just thought I'd ask the question

      That should only be happening if you are not logged in. I'll take a look at it and see what is going on. I did need to make some changes because Google changed how they provide ads. While it seems nearly impossible, I may have made an error

      I have my account set up so I see all the ads everwhere I therefore didn't notice a difference.

        It should be fixed now. Let me know if you see any other issues with ads. I also removed the header ad since Google increased the height of it and it would take up nearly the entire screen if you logged in with a phone. That just seemed a bit heavy handed.

          I thought I made a mistake once also, but I was wrong!

            I noticed the header ads were gone.

              Yes, I was logged in. I wasn't sure if this was an error of perhaps part of the new update that was done recently. so I thought I should ask about it.

              Thanks for the fix.
