Oh man, we were doing so well the last two days and now the ads are back ruining the experience. Shame.

Oddly, I havent seen (or noticed?) a single ad, and I'm not running ad blockers. Safari 14.1.2.

I don't have any control over any testing (what ads are presented), but I did ask and yes the other ad types were turned on again.

Any feedback should go on the other thread which I'll make sure Bingo has a link to or direct to Bingo.

It would be one thing if you can close it down and it never comes back again until you return the site. However, they pop up new with each page you visit.

Oh we all know who’s in the brigade, let’s be honest. You’re a lieutenant.

I don’t really consider you in it. Do you want to be? I could make a formal list but I mean I am pretty lazy, so there is that. But ya know, it’s all the people that generally run around bullying and belittling others all the time, basically. Although over the last couple months it’s noticeably improved honestly.

Anyway if you feel like you might be part of it, you are. And congrats! You’re like so cool and stuff, and everyone thinks so. Focusing on being cool and getting likes on an internet message board matters for sure! Groupthink and rejection of civil discourse is so cool! Let’s continue the trend in being 40+ and worrying about being cool. That’s def what we should do. And anyone that doesn’t think and act lockstep with us should totally be mocked and sarcastically harassed. So cool!

That’s the basics of the brigade. Those who refuse self reflection and general refusal to respect anyone who doesn’t think exactly like them. Because Yoho is just, like, SO DUMB RIGHT?! LOL

The site is free, and I'm sure the majority of posters (myself included) have never donated even a nickel to support the site.
So you have to click out of an ad every so often. big ####ing deal.

suck it up.

Yeah fair, the bottom one doesn't bother me, the full screen one is annoying, but your point is valid.

That's where the whole theory falls apart. I'd be much higher than a lieutenant if I was involved in a brigade.

The CP ads are freezing my mobile web browser.

No site has ever done that. Brutal.
