R182 Posted 6, March 2016 Report Share Posted 6, March 2016 Is today the first day the forum has had ads? I loved the uncluttered-ness of not having ads but I guess it has been determined to be a necessary evil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apple3337 Posted 6, March 2016 Report Share Posted 6, March 2016 (edited) Ahhh..OK....I have an ad blocker installed. It is working nicely... Edited 6, March 2016 by apple3337 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R182 Posted 6, March 2016 Author Report Share Posted 6, March 2016 Hmm ... I wonder if they have always been there and ad blocker has been removed here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb Posted 6, March 2016 Report Share Posted 6, March 2016 I'm not getting any - tested on work PC (no adblock) and in chrome on iPhone. I hope we don't have ads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R182 Posted 6, March 2016 Author Report Share Posted 6, March 2016 I get it below the first post in every thread, even if I go over to windows explorer instead of Chrome. Maybe it's because I only own one Clio ... you guy's both have multiple Clios and don't seem to have the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneaky Posted 6, March 2016 Report Share Posted 6, March 2016 (edited) i only have one clio and i'm getting ads. i noticed ads on a different computer to my normal one the other day, haven't checked on my computer as yet Edited 6, March 2016 by sneaky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloudy Posted 6, March 2016 Report Share Posted 6, March 2016 I noticed my adblocker had an icon that indicated it had blocked 1 ad on this page so I disabled adblock for OzRS and lo and behold there is an ad underneath the first post. If this is an intentional move to bring in some extra revenue to pay the bills, one ad under the first post isn't bad... I'm not bothered by it honestly and I'll disable adblock for the site. So long as it doesn't fall victim to those malicious ads with javascript to hijack your browser history and redirect you to another page.

SamR Posted 7, March 2016 Report Share Posted 7, March 2016 I've been seeing ads as per R182's screenshot for a few weeks now (possibly over a month now?) on my work computer. Can't recall whether I see them at home on my own laptop. Windows laptop using Firefox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremund Posted 7, March 2016 Report Share Posted 7, March 2016 There have been Ads for years, if you haven't logged into the forum they show up. They should hide when you log in. I just tested and this is true for me. If they are showing for others whilst logged in please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracy Posted 7, March 2016 Report Share Posted 7, March 2016 I got one a while back for another brand of car. I (honestly) can't remember what it was now, but it didn't start with T. I would remember that. Oops. Spoke too soon. Just logged out to see what would happen and a lexus ad appeared... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
