What's with the ads, seemingly for everything from soup to nuts, that appear in many posts, sometimes obscuring the text in the post?
You mean a dropdown ad from the top ad or ads inbetween posts in a thread. If you are seeing ads inbetween posts in a thread from time to time you probably are not logged in while seeing the,, I think guests get that.
I finally gave up and installed AdBlock Plus on Firefox. I don't see any of the banner ads now. Some of the banner ads interfere with the search function. BTW, there are other threads on this topic including one that I started over a year ago. http://priuschat.com/forums/priuschat-website-questions/53576-expanding-banner-ads-must-die.html
No, the ads actually appear within the posts themselves and sometimes obscure portions of the text in the post. However, following up on your suggestion, I logged in and discovered that the ads do not show up while I am logged in. Double-checking, I logged out and the annoying ads once again appear. From now on, I'll be sure to log in when visiting PriusChat. Thanks for the clue.
Thanks for the explanation. I was not seeing any adds, not that I am complaining, but I am always logged in.
No problem, glad I could help. I actually got logged out one day and didn't know it and was like "what the hell with all these ads?!" Then I realized I wasn't logged in so that's the only reason I guessed that was the problem right away lol.
