I cant read your post cos the damn floating add covers the text. I can read it now in quotes.

Anyway, I don't like installing loads of this odd stuff on my PC - it slows it down Im sure.

Unfortunately, this is the end of the road of TL for me. The site is now unusable using Google Chrome, and I don't see why I should change my browser just for one web site. I may return in a week or so to see if anything has been done about the ads. In case this is my last post, I'd like to thank every one for their help.

Bye.

It just may be the US Fathers Day weekend why this has not been addressed. It’s a simple task for the Web Dev. to modify or remove the floaters. Lets see if its taken care of today.

I agree. This is a bit ridiculous. I used to have Adblock disabled for TradersLaboratory to support the site, but I've put it back on.

edit: I count 41 Adsense boxes on the main forums page, and that doesn't even include all the new embedded ads between posts, floating to the side, etc. That violates Google AdSense's program policies (maximum 3 ads per page). Admins, you run the site, so you're free to do so however you wan; however, you're very quickly alienating your userbase.

Hey Guys, we're currently undergoing quite a bit of 'construction' including a new look (you might have noticed the new logo) and new ad space. The project is still very much a work in progress so we please ask that you bear with us.

But of course, all constructive criticism and feedback is totally encouraged. For now, we've disabled many of the ads until the project is completed however you may see them pop up from time to time as we continue development.

Thanks again for your patience,

the TL team

Thanks TLadmin.

I came back to see if anything had been done, and low and behold...the floating ads are gone! I can read content again!!

Like the new logo, didn't like the ads.

Cheers,

To install AdBlock in Google Chrome go to
https://chrome.google.com/extensions...l=en&q=adblock

After installation you can access extensions in order to manage them.(see photo)

PS: as the ads are not loading your surfing speed will increase

If you sincerely value the current TL users, you will need to do the majority of the experimenting somewhere else.

I kid you not... when all the floating adds started popping up, I thought for sure I'd gotten a nasty virus, and spent precious time searching for it until I realized it was only on TL. The site was unusable because you couldn't read the content.
