Maybe we're not seeing the same thing then.. the highlighted word ads that pop up when you mouse over them don't bother me. I was seeing ads on every image in threads earlier.

I downloaded ad blocker from the apps store on my ipad (0.99) and it appears to have done the trick. Once you download it, there are instructions for setting it up (only takes a minute).

Same here. I hate it and will now switch to Chrome for viewing the forum.

I'm done with this site if they continue with these popup ads. So incredibly aggressive and obnoxious. Fix it or watch your site slowly die.

I started getting the same damned ad. EVERY time I open ANY thread. Reminds me of my first marriage, time to move on...
