(ANSWERED)I do wish the screen would stay still
Discussion
Every time I open a page or click on a link, I see the next thing I want to click on and just as I am about to click, an advert appears at the top and shunts the rest of the page downwards so I end up clicking on something completely different as my mouse has now lined up with something else.
This is extremely..
...annoying.
I assume there is some sort of 'placeholder' that appears whilst the ad is loading. Can the 'placeholder' be the same size as the ad that will appear then there will be no need for the screen to resize later.
Sorry if I'm not up on all the techy jargon and hope this makes sense to someone. Thank you very
much.

Allegedly Chrome has anti-page jumps - https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/software/goo...
So you might want to try it out (and then install uBlock origin).

So do the PH web guys come back and comment on these things?
They might in the main thread.https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...
It seems to vary by page
I just saw the website feedback page come up, then as I was about to click a thread, it redrew to allow for the advert placeholder. I don't know what ad it placed as I came here first
ETA
It might be that the top level General Gassing doesnt have a placeholder for the second advert, so when you first go to website feedback forum it keeps that style, then realises it should have the second place so redraws
