    Annoying pop-up ad

    Hey, is it just me or does this new X Games/Caffeine video ad get in the way of everyone else’s reading?

    Yep. Just started this afternoon.

    I know. Pop up blockers are the answer.

    But I don’t ever have this problem on safari. Now I do.

    Oh we can do that. We don’t even need a reason

        Well, SOME sort of revenue has to pay for Kai’s upcoming health insurance premiums.

            This is fucking stupid. It makes it impossible to use the site on the phone. Covers up the entire screen.

            advertising is a great way to pay the bills, but when it makes the site unusable who’s gonna watch the ads?

            we just finally got that other fucking ad glitch taken care of now we got another one.

              Adblock plus doesn’t even stop it. When you select block item it comes back.

              Can’t figure out how to close it on iPhone (full site classic blue view) either. Boo!

                Pop-up blocker won't do anything. It's not a pop-up it's an adhesion.

                          Get rid of it. Notify the advertiser that we are boycotting them. Putting an ad that can't be removed sux. Whoever allowed this sux more.

                            I clicked on it and watched a while.
                            Was doing my part to get a new server box fan

                            The kids today are insane.

                            And the ad needs to not run video and need to go away if you scroll.
                            It is obnoxious

                              I use ghostery so I get a spinning wheel inside a black box that still won't go away. Sick.

                              Garbage. WTF.
