It's bad enough that I have to wait for ads to load before I can see any posts, but now I am being forced to watch an ad before I can click on anything at all?? I understand the ads pay for the website, but a forced video is a little much.
I'll be on hiatus.

The auto play of an ad is a new issue. I suggest you clear your browser cache as you may be pulling it from cache with play toggled rather than from the server.

Yesterday I was doing some header redesign to accommodate Google Adsense changes. When did the auto-play start??

I will check with the ad provider to see if an auto-play feature was integrated into the ad.

I'm running a number of Ad Blockers on Chrome and I rarely see an ad on my PC. On my iPad, it's another story but nothing's been force fed either. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Yeah, I got it jammed down my throat, too, with a 10sec delay before I could close it.

Advertisers are sooo stupid. If I was ever going to buy an Optima battery before, I wouldn't now...

I've been having the optima add jam me up right after I log in. Tonite it came on after I was on here for about 30 mins. while reading a thread. I wasn't moveing the curser or scrolling or anything when it took over.
Needless to say I won't be adding any thingamajigs, I'll just put up with it...
