This forum has become nearly impossible to use due to the number of ads.
I used to enjoy the discussion on the forums but now it is near impossible to use due to the number of ads.:C:C
Cheers Bekky.

There is a thread discussing this issue already, have a read as there are some solutions in the thread.

Giant banner adverts in the middle of posts. (https://www.woodworkforums.com/f36/giant-banner-adverts-middle-posts-231173)

If you are running MS Internet Explorer or MS Edge the following is great!
Adblock Plus | The world's # 1 free ad blocker (https://adblockplus.org/)

I don't know about using AdBlock Plus with other browsers, but I'm told that it works.

Rrich, I'm just going to repeat this here; it's been said elsewhere in the longer thread linked above.

The forum isn't the place to use an AdBlocker. The forum owners use the meagre benefits those ads bring in to offset (some of) the running costs of the forum. Using an ad blocker stops that flow. Yes, it's a minor inconvenience.

Having said that, because this intermittent issue is not affecting everyone, and is very noticeable for those it does afect, an adblocker may give temporary relief but please don't keep it on longer than necessary
