Sudden appearance of ads on OCUK site ??? **UPDATE: There will be no adverts**

[booyaka]

same - fixed

Seems to be fixed now.

Hmm yeah. Obviously i just happened to jump on at the wrong time today, seems to have only lasted a few minutes. Plenty of time for me to screenshot and stir up some controversy though.

Nope (UBlock Origin).

Fine on mobile for me too. Both desktop and mobile browsers are Firefox.

same here.

Ublock didn't block it on my desktop (but chrome user) - but did on tablet/phone.

It's been wiped for now.

Forums going through its own corona crisis

I noticed the logo was missing in the top right, but no ads. Disabled adblock and boom - there she is.

The beginning of the end of OCUk forums?

Edit: just refreshed the mobile page and it's unusable... I won't be using the forums anymore if they are riddled with ads - I've spent enough in the shop over the years as it is without suffering a poor website experience just to add another revenue stream.

good lord that's some fine over-reacting sir.

give over, fixed within 2mins

 

[something daft already!!]

No ads here on both desktop and mobile. I have ABP on my PC but nothing on mobile. Using Chrome for both.

The problem appears to be back for me on desktop

I've flagged this thread to the relevant people

Filtering through again on UBlock - using Chrome (Ublock needs an update). Plus, fragmenting forum, for good measure.

Got an ad for Friends With Benefits

Clearly, that's not intended hehe.

Just happened to me too! Turned on ublock (which was off for this site)

I'm getting hard wood floor vacuum ads. That's what I get when disabling targeted ads :/

 

[Yaayuh!]

Ditch Chrome and get Firefox + uBlock Origin?

It's google ads, though. What you been searching?

 

[krooton]

I got an ad for FriendsWithBenefits, not ideal on my work laptop!

More like your targeted ads picked up the "hard wood" part
