    Not inappropriate but the sky GAA ad is constantly causing the touch site to crash.

    "I want to make you cry"
    "I want to make you feel this even more"

    This stuff is absolutely inappropriate, and I have reported it here on more than one occasion.

    That should be blocked now, it may take a short while to filter through, however if you see it again please let us know.

    Thanks!

    with no way to shut it off.

    I deliberately don't use ad blockers as sites like this deserve the ad revenue they generate for the service they provide for free. Idiot advertisers however need to be called out when bugs creep in by design or accident.

    Thanks for the report. If you see it again, could you grab a screenshot and the click through URL please?

    I'll keep an eye out for it myself. We need the URL to be able to block it via Google Ads. Thanks :)

    This sky ad has rendered the site almost unusable for me. Do I have to resort to adbloker?

    It's far too big and intrusive. If anything would put you off Sky, this is it.

    Is it meant to be like this or is it a fault?

    Breathe, relax, it's only an ad that clearly has an issue. It'll be gone soon

    Sorry about the Sky ad, it looks like a larger ad was forcing itself into a smaller sized slot - it was more tha likely labelled incorrectly when it was uploaded.

    Obviously this was a mistake - ther would be no point in ads that actually cover content. We don't want any ads preventing you from reading a thread. I presume since there have been no more reports of this, it was removed in my absence. Thanks for the reports though.

    On the Investment & Markets forum there are ads for ig.com on the Legacy mobile touchscreen site. I dont know about the other sites.

    These ads will open their webpage if you touch the screen over the add to scroll the page. This is quite annoying.

    Normal functionality for a click to activate is to touch and release the link.
    These ads just require the initial touch to open the page.

    Just had a banner add on the home page when logged in for 
    www.driverupdate.net
    which I'd consider a link to malware misery.
