prospie, is it pop-ups or pop-unders coming from the bottom of the browser?
Nope. Mac user if it helps in any way.
I have on my phone. Annoying.
I'm on a iPad right now, and I got a popup when I logged in
I received a popup as well...i guess it would be classified as pop-under, same annoying shit though.
Phone & pc
No pop-ups at work or at home.
Pop-unders. Kind of a drag because it blocks your bottom bar including the clock (which is what I guess it's supposed to do because it requires your attention to fix it).
No pop-anythings here. Running Chrome w/ AdBlock on a Mac.
I got a pop up when i clicked on this post from the forum topics on the right. Never gotten a pop up other than now. It was for Trader X or something.
What browser are you using? I've noticed Firefox has the same popup on a lot of sites.
I got them on firefox but not on chrome. Trader X and a torrent download kind of thing.
Actually I did see that Trader X thing too. Forgot about that.
I got the same pop up recently a few times but closed out and didnt pay attention to what it was.
On my end, it was happening all last night but not anymore.
Got a pop up last night, and again this morning.
i got popups in the past few days... specifically, i think it was triggered when i clicked on the "followers" icon. i don't notice it happening today.
I got a Trader X pop up as well
Yep TraderX pop under. Running chrome on a pc
I got a few popups.
Pop ups here too every time I log in, using an HP laptop.
Just got a popup for Trader XP when clicking on a thread from the "Forum Topics" list on the right side, using Chrome on a PC.
Got the same pop-up as before. Last time it was on a PC using Chrome from work, this time from a Mac using Chrome. I clicked on a post last time and on my messages this time.
What's the deal with these things? I don't know much about computer pop-ups and whatnot, is this advertiser related, spam related, or WSO related?
Hey guys, this is an ad format we decided to give a try since we thought it would be less intrusive. Are the pop-ups opening in new windows for you or sliding up from the bottom of your browsers?
My pop-ups are all in new windows
They're in new windows, or if I'm on my iPhone then they open up in new tabs which is especially annoying.
New windows on both PC and Mac.
New windows on my iPad
Got popup all over the place. Even after I install Adblock Plus, it still doesn't help.
Not gonna lie, I like banner ad's better.
I like no ads better. I'll make up the ad revenue difference if you want.
I never had this happen as I got the AdBlock Plus extension (free) for Firefox and it has worked wonders for me. All the shows and movies I watch are hosted online on sites bombarded with all kinds of crazy ads and it has made a huge difference. I accidentally uninstalled it the other day and only noticed when I wanted to catch the latest episodes of The Office.
I know the intended purpose of these is to bring extra revenue so I apologize if I shouldn't have brought that up Patrick.
guys, this will be gone by tomorrow. Sorry, I did not realize they were pop-ups into new windows which is SUPER annoying.
Apologies.

Anyone else hate the pop-up ads on this?
I click on all of them, repeatedly. Just a way to give back to Patrick.
Patrick found out he has a kid in Thailand. Please click the ads, the money goes straight to child support.

Preview Popups (Originally Posted: 02/10/2014)
Something is messed up with the preview popups that come when you hover your mouse by a thread title in feed or recent posts. It's like it's gone bonkers. They're coming up super fast and sensitive and all overlapping each other.

I am having this issue too but I figured out that if you hover your mouse over it again they should do away.
Lol...it's like playing Whac-A-Mole, except with internet popups.
