Continual pop-ups

Post by Tamerlane »

Am I the only one?

Everytime I either A) Refresh a page or B) move from forum or to forum or from thread to thread. One of those pop-ups keep, well you know popping up!

I had to delete around six of those cell phones ads recently.

Any idea Buck?

Every now and then they pop up. But not every time I go to another page or reload. They pop up more often then they used to, but not so much that it's really irritating.

Well this is really strange.

It seems to have stopped, but yesterday :mad: :mad:

It happened every time the page changed.

If you did something Buck, well then I'm forever in your debt. Figuratively speaking of course. ;)

The way it is set up, you should only see one popbehind and one popup every 12 hours. If it happens more than that, chances are your browser doesn't allow cookies (you'll have to enable them). If you have cookies on, and it still happens, please let me know.

Well, it started happening to me tonight. Every time I post, change section, thread, or forum a new pop up happens, and this is with cookies enabled.

Not complaining, but you asked for feedback...

I don`t get pop-ups every time I change threads, but maybe in 1 of 7-8 and I also get two or three when I come to the site.

Maybe you should check it. :(

The two to three I get when I come on I can tolerate. Also the pop-ups that appear every 30 mins is easily tolerable. It's just that the ever constant pop-ups is/was a bug in the program.

I am having the same problem, I usually get 2 popups when I view a new thread or forum...ironically this has only started happening recently - after I enabled cookies! :)

You should only get one popup and one popbehind every 12 hours. I was experimenting with some new code for a couple of days there, but have since switched it back.

If you are getting a lot of popups, please email me with the specifics of what ads they are and what pages you're seeing them on.
