Yes that is the one thanks for showing it and confirming it`s not just me.

Can we get rid of the "prepare to get laid everyday" redirect?

I have better things to do.

It seems to load randomly.

We need a thread for the best ads!

I love the one with the roomba its totally making me want to buy one. Everytime i see it i want to go to bestbuy and pick one up... just to have the first generation brand of house cleaning robots.

what is the deal with the redirects? I just got hijacked by some web site called crackle.

All the redirects keep crashing my browser!

How do I get rid of that annoying shortcut bar across the screen? When you're "broadcasting" it crashes my phone.

Annoying video ads on the front page that start blaring a commercial at me.

Weak. Sauce. Ats.

I can no longer access ATS on my phone because I'm forcibily redirected to gotfreebies.org each and every time I try to access the site.

I am getting an ad download request.

AdDisplayTrackerServlet
which is a:application/octet-stream
from: 'http://track.pubmatic.com'

This needs to be fixed I will under no circumstances allow some ad to install something on my machine.

I'm getting this too and the get freebies one. Why would anyone at ATS think members want the same ad popping up instead of EVERY thread we try and read

Newest thing here is that a lot of the ads don't even load up. Normally, I wouldn't care. But since ATS is a dark-coloured site, these incredibly white squares suck big-time.. Most ads from "demr.opt.fimserve.com" don't work anymore. Or atleast, they won't load here. Just figured i'd let you know.

I've been getting this ad on heavy repeat lately, and it's not only infuriating to think these types of businesses might be profiting off ATS clicks, but it's also just darn creepy...

I have been getting some advertisement that have been blocking half of the new threads in new topics.

That Baphomet ad scared the crap out of me, but I did go look at the book and download it so I guess it worked. I don't think it's ATS fault what the image was, but still, it was unpleasant to see.

what is all the fuss over < freedom of religion > and all that .if a cross was displayed would any body give a damm do you ever hear anybody say thank satan for that get a life there is kids starving to death go moan about that

Some of the flash ads start automatically... I went in my computer and stopped them yesterday but ABCnews has the same thing going on... I just don't visit them much....

ads are one of those necessary evils....

I had to call in to my cell phone provider and have them fix my phone because of that ad. Unfortunately, I mostly only have my phone for access these days.
If I'm logged in, I don't get that redirect anymore. have to stay logged in.

I have however been hijacked by a couple of dating sites that then went towards porn. From the firehouse page

And, no, I don't visit dating or porn sites, so I don't know why they were there

Good Afternoon Ladies & Gentlemen,

This pop-up is appearing pretty much every other time I go to Star someone or up-load pics - in the last 48hrs it seems.


Can you please ask the ad creator if they would be so kind to:
1. Add a NO button on said ad, and:
2. Have the ad pop-up in a new tab or window.

I have no problems with advertising and encourage it so that this wonderful site continues in its success - I have purchased some ATS stuff myself from your shop (and I am somewhat surprised at Springers comment that you don't mark up or get commission - but I digress)

I am getting increasingly frustrated with this pop-up - can anything be done?

Kindest regards

There are no pop-ups/unders for logged-in members. You may have some malware.
