Adblocker works well. PH need to shoot their advertising manger/supplier.

Advertising online is okay, a necessary evil if you will ... but only when done properly. Like this, with these overly intrusive adverts that are too big, irrelevant and annoying ... well ... there are other car forums that will begin to get my page impressions.

There are ads on PH? Are there ads elsewhere on the internet, too?

Coo. What a novelty.

This one is kind of relevant to PH and all you need to do is click the X in the top right corner to close it, you then won't see it again unless you've installed something that won't let PH know you've seen it thumbup

How is it relevant to PH? And what difference does it make anyway? As long as money keeps coming in no one cares so why even bother defending it. But the advertising is becoming ridiculous now.

Annoys me I'm afraid. The fact that it loads and opens downward just as our about to click on the PH menu forces you to click by mistake (the first time, anyway). Sneaky and obstructive. Poor, backhanded advertising. Many more of these will put me off for good.

If you don't like ads, stop whining and do something about it. It isn't rocket science to NEVER SEE AN AD ON THE INTERNET AGAIN.

One doesn't always view on a computer over which one has control.




Skoda ad that expanded and started playing a video in the middle of a Porsche article. Surely you're aware that many people view in breaks at work?

A huge number of people are browsing on iPads etc, not much choice there.

If you don't like people justly raising a concern about the overly intrusive ads, stop whining and do something about it. It isn't rocket science to NEVER SEE THIS THREAD ON THE INTERNET AGAIN.

I dont like blocking ads, it raises money to keep this site running, i even click relevant ones. What i dont loke are the massive ones.

Ph need to sort them out,otherwise people like me will just block them, then they'll lose revenue.
