Ads are blocking content - Site is becoming difficult to use

Yea i cleared my cache and still have issues with function on the left side of the screen. On top of that at near the same time this problem started the message in my browser says not secure. Browser auto updates as far as i know but i will check.

That "not secure" message is something the idiots that make the browsers decided was a good idea, if there's a password field on a page and the connection is not https (secured by the use of certificates) that message appears.

The only result is that it confuses users.

Yup! I guess I'm stepping in high cotton ?

I just thought the owners might be missing some ad revenue .

I saw you were a moderator. I might be off topic here. But when I registered at ATS on my mobile phone. The user name box would not except letters from the alphabet. So I typed in numbers and boom it accepted it.

I want to re-register under my real name but I'm afraid of being singled out as a sock .


Do you have any suggestions ?

Woah! 'answers that! Hope you get some resolution to the issue. Best of Luck!

Malfunction or deliberate manipulation ???

I keep trying to leave a flag in the History forum for this post:
"Sen. John McCain, the burial of a brave Leader and Hero!, the last Mohican of BiPartisan Patriotism?"

Flag is not accepted - Is that why I'm suddenly getting less flags- on many posts?

It doesn't matter and we don't matter, right?

I was about to post a thread in the History forum but if it is pre-destined to fail, why bother?

We all like money don't we? - The question is how much is your soul worth? - Or is it already bought and paid for ?!?!?

Back to the issue at hand:

Nothing wrong with ads- I don't mind ads and most people probably don't.

But the thing that always made ATS the best forum was format - And functionality was never an issue.

If ads are interfering with format and functionality, inevitably some people will stiop posting
- That is not good.

With all the computer geeks on this forum I'm sure you can find one or more who can solve the problem.

Obvious malfunction, deliberate manipulation would not be so easy to bypass.

That's probably because your threads are not interesting enough.

More seriously, try changing the zoom on your browser, if I have the zoom set to 120% I cannot flag threads, but with smaller values (I usually use 110%) I can.

I don't like money.
