Something I noticed recently.....pop ups when I sign in. Not a big deal, just something new happening.
Example below.
One of the reasons I left Moparts after 20 years.
On my PC I use MS Edge for my browser with Adguard. On my Android tablet I use Opera for my browser which has an integrated ad blocker.
No pop-ups here, unless I deactivate the ad blockers.
Ad dollars pay for the place, that's why I'm good with seeing sponsors ads (Roseville etc.). I do by from those sponsors, when they have a "member" discount.
The member discount gives the selling party a way to track that their sponsorship dollars are generating a return.
moparts has gotten crazy with their ads.
Okay, I was just thinking it was me seeing them. Glad I'm not going crazy.... Using an IPhone here if that matters.
Yup...I'm getting them too....just once per visit... :headbang:
Yes: There's nothing to panic about here so far. Moparts went over the top though.
What we have to look forward to....
Maybe they meant to put her pic under the Sugar and Spice Topic, ha ha!
I haven't gotten any? I do have a pop up protector though?
If I use my iPhone I get a pop up.
I hate them. It pisses me off I don't have more control to the ads. I really hate that they added those ads to our site, especially on my phone where it's hard to find the little X to close it. But google adsense provides the programming for the ads. I only get to pick where on the page, but not if they pop up. I wish we didn't need the ad money to keep the site up and running. At least the ads are not as bad as some sites. Moparts got so bad I couldn't take it either.
If it gets much worse, we'll find a way to remove all the ads and ask for donations or something to keep it going.
I don't like them either but willing to put up with it if it pays for the site.....cuz I'm not going to FB or MW. lol
So far (fingers crossed) no pop-ups on my desktop and only one per session on my iPad.

I'm sure that if there was an appeal for donations it would be well received.
It's a minor irritation for me, when it happens I just hit the back arrow, then return, and it's gone rather than try to click the x.
Much less of a bother than those damn infolinks on Moparts which makes that site almost unusable now!
Like I said, its not a real problem, just something I noticed and wondered if it was me and my simple set up....I don't do Moparts so I don't know the issues there..........guess I could investigate......
By the way.....wishing everyone a good day.........trying to make it one for me too................ :banana:
Download a browser like Firefox that blocks the ads
:bigthumb:
Yep the pop ups are one thing on the PC,but it totally ruins it on the phone when the pop up blocks the entire screen.

With my PC, I use Google Chrome as my browser, with an ad blocker, so I don't see any of this. With my phone, oh yeah. It's annoying.

I like this trick, just worked like a charm...thanks :worship: :drinkingbud:
Today I was unable to use the 'back' button as the ad covered the ENTIRE 27" screen. :bricks:
Had to wait.
I'll accept them with a smile if they help the site. Yes they are a little annoying, kinda like taxes....
Cody and those who help, thanks for providing a great website! :cheers:
