Ad banner

bigtiller · Apr 14, 2020

I just figured out how to take a screen shot on my windows 8, so now I can show you what just began showing up on my screen yesterday.

There is an ad at the bottom of the page. I can click on the "x" to the right to make it go away but when I open another page it comes back. Is there an easy way to make it stay away?

Mine just started that as well, more an annoyance than anything..........Mike

Hope I don't gotta keep X'ing that out every time I change a page. Logging out, not dealing with a million adds.

As I recall, that's only supposed to show up when not logged in, but there was a problem with it that was being worked on.

Shows up on my phone but not the iPad. I’m logged in on both devices.

I tried to download Adblocker Plus for this yesterday, but it locked up my laptop harder than I've ever seen. Even my task manager froze, and rebooting didn't help either. Apparently it doesn't like Windows 10.

Still working on a fix. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thank you, I'm glad it's not just me. I am woefully inexperienced at computer fixing. We usually give up and call the geek squad.

It seems to be browser related. I get the pop-up when I use Chrome (my preferred browser), but not when using Firefox.

Can't speak for smartphone or tablet browsers since I have neither.

No go. I've tried several adblockers and none of them blocked it. As others noted, it does seem to go away when you log in.

I'm logged in, and it's driving me crazy! lol

Again we're working on it.

If you're on mobile or tablet you can use our ad-free app, available for iOS or android.

I appreciate your efforts, and I am not complaining, just reporting. I am still having the banner on my iPhone but not my iPad which seems quite odd. Viewing TBN via Safari on both devices, I have never downloaded the app.

I wasn't complaining either, and thanks for working on getting it fixed...

It should be gone now. If it isn't do a hard page refresh (shift + F5 on PC or cmd + R on mac). If it's still there after that, clear history and log in again.

bigtiller · Apr 15, 2020

Mine looks good. Thanks for clearing that up.

Paystar · Apr 16, 2020

So far so good Muhammad. Thank you!! I realize the site needs add revenue, and I don't mind them, but it was a pain having to "X" one every single time to see the screen.

Pop ups are now so bad on this site that I think I'm done. 3 advertising screens at once with little left to read of the original post that I was trying to look at is too much. This used to be a good forum but has been going downhill for the past few years. This seals the deal for me. I'm done with it. My input will go elsewhere.

Best of luck to you.
