    Well, the embedded ads on the bottom of the pages here....

    have ruined this site for me. They keep pulling me down to the bottom of the page to view them no matter what I do. Happens in IE and Google Chrome. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there an easy solution? I can fix it by going to mobile view but I don't really want to have to always use mobile view on my laptop.

    If you're using chrome, Adblocker is the best thing to solve that problem. Now I'll occasionally take it off to click an ad to support, but then it's right back on. Prevents pop-ups and everything.

    Guess I can try that but this is the only site I have any issue like this. And these are embedded ads down at the bottom, not really pop ups. These type ads are on other sites but I've never had an issue where the page automatically goes down to them and forces you there, that's what's different.

    This^^^ Adblocker is the easiest solution. It even works when watching youtube videos.

    Thanks, guess I'll try Adblocker if the problem continues.

    Not happening in Firefox. Don't have Adblocker installed, but FF has some built-in pop-up protection I think.

    Hey, thanks for the tip, trying that seems to have stopped the issue for me so far.

    What ads at the bottom?

    Come on guys. It's 2015. Are we still complaining about ads and popups? It's an easy fix. Fix it and move on.

    Yep, when its the only site I visit on the internet giving me this particular problem I'll complain. However, so far, clearing my cache does seem to have fixed the issue. Wouldn't have known that if I hadn't asked in this thread.
