If you are trying to drive members from the site, this is exactly the way to do it!
@BunsenBurner totally agree but when there are more ads than content on a page and the ads start to get to seizure inducing levels users have no choice. Ready Player One anyone?
Is anyone listening to our concerns?
@CCadmin_Sorin ,
are you reading the comments?
Its seems someone did not beta test the size of the pop up ads on portable devices before releasing the new formated ads.
I sure hope it gets fixed, for the sake of ALL CC Members.
Still getting the large gray pop up ad box at the bottom of my Mac with each new thread visited.
Even on my home computer with a large screen the grey box popping in and out with every new page is awful.
@CCadmin_Sorin I hope you are looking at the post counts of the members that are complaining about this new ad, These are the folks that post to help people, they are the reason why new people come to CC. Do you realize that you will drive people away, especially very helpful long time posters if you make this site so un-user friendly that they don’t want to be here?
Are you folks still getting the pop ups? Because…I’m not! They seem to have stopped.
I just exited out and came back in…and have gone from forum to forum…and no more pop up ad!
Hoping this is a forever fix!
Dying to know what happened!!
Stopped for me too, in last few minutes
Thank you.
No bottom popup ads. I like mine embedded. Or at the top. I even click on some. Believe it or not!
Thanks.
Gone for me, too. Thank you, admins!
" I even click on some. Believe it or not!"
And this is why we get the ads. Because people click on them. 
I think they are turned off (for now). I was going to take a ruler and measure the actual forum space on my iPhone with the ads at top and bottom - I think less than 50% of my screen was forum quite a bit of the time.
Very annoying ad that pops up at the bottom of the page, every new page, even though I have a pop-up blocker.
If this continues, I will spend more time on other forums, less here.
I’m not getting it anymore.
I thought it was because my computer did a reboot of windows yesterday.
Looks like it’s fixed. Thank you!
Thank goodness, it looks like they have stopped!
