Everything seems to be okay now, but a couple of minutes ago I received this message. Doubt it's helpful in any way, but figured I'd post it just in case.

What DEFCON level are we at right now?

Idk but this website has gone full potato. Holy fuck what an abortion

What? Is the site slow for you right now? 

Slow. Ad aids everywhere. Tapa is faster and easier right now. Here’s a screenshot of what I’m seeing as I’m trying to type

This is ridiculous. Been a surly/shag poster since 2011. Help. Me.

Fixed? I'm moving the scroll up button to the left side or seeing if the dismissal can be on the left. They clobber. 

Much better now. Still slow, but I can tolerate that with the ad aids being gone 

How do i become a member to avoid the ads? I couldn't post for most of this afternoon and even now I have adds covering up posts with no way to remove them. I get this site needs to make money, not complaining. I just want to improve my experience here.

 

edit: I've been around since the shaggy days.. hell, since the hornfans days... but took a decade off after that shitstorm went down. Rejoined surly back in 2021 I guess. If any of that makes a difference.

Ads everywhere. And I’ve been looking at them like an old school Sears catalog. But it’s everywhere. Fix this shit Rich!

Deleted accounts don’t inherit. 

I'm seeing ads and I'm a paid type person. 'Sup with that?

Seeing video ads where it appears there should be links or imbedded content. When the ad is over, it disappears and leaves an empty post. 
 

but later someone might quote it, so I know it isn’t really empty, just borked. 

It's bad. This shit is giving me Tourettes.

I don’t know how you are seeing ads. What theme are you using? 

I logged in as you and see no ads.

I went to page 893 of the Ukraine thread and scrolled down when the stuff loaded- here’s 2 examples.

when the ad finishes, I’m left with an empty post  


theme is surly main dark.  On phone  .

I’ll look into it, but you should probably use light theme until I can get to a computer and fix it after the game.

Not a huge deal, especially before the game. Just wanted to make it known.

I saw exactly what Pato saw last night, but in the light theme. Same thread, too.

Seeing more of it today in that thread... blank posts that look like they should have embedded content, but sometimes show ads instead.

This is on chrome mobile (Android)

I also logged in as you chrome android and saw nothing. 

Fortunately, I'm high, so I'm amused by the bullshittery and have enjoyed a game or ten of "find the X".

Yea on mobile closing ads isn't easy. Also never seen this many before

I’m having the same issue on an iPhone and Adblock seems to have no effect.

Ads everwhere seem to have gone away.  

Thanks, @immamac for unborking.

ousucks.

Premature... Shit is booked.

Still ads everywhere for me.  iPad, light vs dark doesn’t change anything.  If this is the new treefiddy I will be cancelling.

This site has become completely unusable on my PC.  The ads are so intrusive I’m not even able to post from the computer.  I can eventually make my way through the ads on my phone to post.  I go to many websites and this one has by far the most challenging user experience.  

This is what it looks like for me on Safari mobile right now. I get that the site needs to make money, but I gotta click a tiny partially obscured X to load more posts or see my notifications. Really annoying.

Ads everywhere. @immamac

This time I can’t click “Next” to go to another page as it’s grayed out. The option to open in app or safari only loads outside CR.

this is going to be fixed later today - right now logged out and logged in users were seeing the same ads that will change today. 

I cant give certain rep on posts that have something embedded. For example, I can give the bottom 3 choices, but anything that's overlaying the youtube video, it just clicks on the video to start it. Same with tweets that are embedded.

iPhone? WebKit is a garbage browser. 

May be time to just burn it to the ground and start over
