A lot more adverts recently.

Up where? I haven't got any, and even if I had I wouldn't have noticed them. I never read the adverts.

Beside the Gransnet banner. It turns into an advert every so often.

But then it comes back again.

You have to catch it. Quick! It's there now!

No! It's turned into "Gold Investment Guide".

That's ll be useful round 'ere.

I might go to Jersey.

Or buy a nice chair.

You are repeating yourself sal.

Yes, my post disappeared, so I thought I had done something stupid. (Probably had).

Get a download of Adblock for your browser - bingo! no more ads.

I'd been getting advertisements in spite of having Adblock. I discovered yesterday that there's an Adblock+ which I have downloaded and the ads have disappeared again.

Ah - yes, I just checked mine and it's Adblock+... Opera version.

But the adverts are interesting. They've got some lovely furniture on that Made site.

Can someone else just tell me that they can see the string of random letters. Please!

Do adblocks work on forums? Isn't it entirely up to HQ as to adverts appearing? Would the advertisers pay if they thought we could all block them?

Adverts are a necessity btw!

What I want to know is are they paying GN for the privilege

I have been keeping an eye on the screen for the last hour and still haven't seen it j08. Are they paying you to get us to read the adverts?

That's odd. I was getting the adverts this morning, but not now! (Haven't seen the random letters one at all...)

Oh no! (worried) It was definitely there. It's the jersey one now.

I bet when I post this it'll re-appear. #drivesyermad

Yes! Ity's ba ck. Quick! Someone look now!

Looked and saw advert for log cabins...very classy they are too.

On my laptop it is only Mumsnet Academy, and on tablet others as well, but not the one you describe! What are seeing it on?

strings there

I'm on a desktop.

Will have a look on my Kindle Fire.

On my Fire I've got "Instant Grammar Checker" Correct all grammar errors and enhance your writing.

Where are they digging them all up from?
