Forum adverts...

Anyone else noticing that some posts from users have the "....." underneath some words that when you go to click on them it is just an advert for a product.

Has this always been the case on OCUK or is this just a naff forum "upgrade" for the owners?

Never seen it here. It's more likely you have some kind of toolbar or adware installed that's doing it.

Its not always been like this

it was implimented about a week ago

Theres nothing Naff about it, OCUK is a shop. Its not invasive, and its only in the hardware sections. If customers find a post via google(none forum users), they can jump straight to a product.

Also, you can disable it.

Ah, colour me wrong then! Rarely venture into hardware anymore so haven't noticed it.
