I'm sick of all these pop up ads HD forums started bombarding us with! I don't mind the advertising on the side bar but stupid pop ups are frustrating!

Maybe you should send them a check so that they don't have to advertise?

Pop-ups advertisements are ridiculous on a forum. Inline ads are more effective and less intrusive.

I use a smartphone or tablet most of the time and trying to hit that tiny x is frustrating cause it is damn near impossible.

Yup. I can't browse on my phone unless I switch to the mobile version, because if I scroll to get to the X, the ad just moves...

The ads showing up are majorly annoying on my iPad. It is making me start seeking more and more info from other forums.

I hate coming to this Forum because of the pop ups. Just stop HDForums.

I agree. The ads suck on my iPad. Forget the phone. If I wanted a VW, I would visit a VW fourm. Although I have purchased items from some of the vendors on this forum, it has never been because of a pop-up advertisment. If anything, the pop-up ads turn me against that brand and deter me from visiting this forum.
