Dave Jones 2,127 Posted October 14, 2021 Can I suggest for those who don't have it that they try A B P( Adblock plus), When i log into the BSF i get a notification that it is blocking 2 ads , & when i open this topic it moves to 3 blocked . Seems to work fine for me. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Panthers99 434 Posted October 14, 2021 On a laptop, no issues. On my phone, it's constant. Thankfully easy ad's to remove, you're not struggling to find the right 'X' etc. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s as bad as the constant spam on the Covid thread, nothing is done about that so don’t expect anything to be done about the ads. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree 100% p.s. the pop up ads on here are a right royal pain in the derriere though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,636 Posted October 14, 2021 To be honest the ads can be a welcome diversion to some of the posts!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grand Central 2,654 Posted October 15, 2021 Tbh it's a p!ss poor show. No matter what the reason. It looks scammy and makes the forum feel very dodgy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
