KinkySlinky 3 Posted April 5, 2011 Hey everyone! I loved this site as I have been preparing for my surgery... But due to the recent ads, I am going to have to stop coming regularly.. The ads are too much!!! It's taking so long to load these pages that it isn't worth it anymore. And I can't find a way to nix the ads... I will return periodically as needs arise, but not often... I wish you all success on your journeys!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samantha209 19 Posted April 5, 2011 Are you using high speed internet, and do you have a pop up blocker enabled??? because I have no such problem at home or work? Try running a scan on your computer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Day Dreamer 23 Posted April 5, 2011 Hey everyone! I loved this site as I have been preparing for my surgery... But due to the recent ads, I am going to have to stop coming regularly..

I wish you all success on your journeys!! I have to agree with Sam. I do not get a slow load at work or home. You may need to defrag your computer. I have noticed that some of the ads do not load at all. I wish they were not there all together, because i hate seeing them, but I understand the site needs some sort of income to allow us to use it for free. So I gladly deal with the ads.... Such is life. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KellyL 173 Posted April 5, 2011 Using my iphone and an app so I don't see the ads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eureka-C 20 Posted April 10, 2011 I use my iPad and it loads as if for a phone, no ads! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted April 10, 2011 Wow, it's worth getting an ipad just so I don't have to look at the ads. I don't have pop ups and the board loads very fast , but even if the ads are only on the right side of the board, I don't want to look at them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ashleyc 10 Posted April 10, 2011 You could also switch browers, I know alot of things load faster with Googl Chrome. Good Luck!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wishes 125 Posted April 10, 2011 Exactly what they said, if I use my phone or google chrome, I barely even see the ads and I have no problems with speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KinkySlinky 3 Posted April 11, 2011 Ugh... I came back to check to see if this ad issue had resolved.. Nope.. I can understand small ads but these are just overdoing it!!!! I can use the app on my Xoom (Motorola version of the iPad) but it doesn't load the threads that I have subscribed to, which I don't like.. Maybe I will just stick to the app.. It took 6 minutes just to respond to this thread.. and I do have high speed internet... Ridiculous!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
