    Is there a way of reducing the amount of adverts? In the past days I am seeming to get overload making it a pain to navigate the site.

    That's what we are currently looking into

    The ads are staged so unregistered users receive more than registered

    Then they reduce further dependant on your post count

    To finally no adverts for site supporters

    At the minute we have just sorted supporters and will move onto the others

    Im on Android. Adverts are intrusive and ruin the experience.

    Install an ad blocker. I use AdGuard on my iPhone. Works a treat.

    Nothing wrong with advertising but when they pop up when you are trying to type or scroll then they are a pain in the arse.

    If you think thats excusable then you will find a drop off in site visits before long.

    I make a contribution to the site for two reasons. I can’t stand adverts and online ones are extremely intrusive. Secondly a number of ppl moderate and run the site so I contribute so that we can keep the site running. I think it is £10 a year minimum. It is a good forum for exchange of views.
