I don't have a problem with ads, but this is just terrible.

I'd suggest you change the site name from forum.com to ruralvillage.com.

Thanks.

I’m 100% on the same page as 👍

Just get rid of this garbage already 👎

Or at least move it somewhere that actually makes sense.

I completely agree; this whole thing is far too invasive and aggressive, and frankly, it’s just plain appalling. I feel targeted.

Even my absolute favorite Opera can't seem to shake this thing.😲
How is this even possible? Seriously, how?😲

Just get rid of it.😠

And of course, when I try to hit "remove ad," I get slapped with this: Our records show that you have already registered under the name of slywolf45. If you have lost your password, click here. If you would like to modify your profile, click here. 🙄

Honestly, when my computer didn't launch Chrome properly, I was convinced I’d accidentally downloaded some nasty piece of malware. 😠

Maybe it's time we all just went on strike. 🤔

Just install Adblock and the problem vanishes. 😉

Even with ABP, I can't seem to get that ad to budge. 🤷

It’s like she's acting all high and mighty, pretending she could actually block it if she wanted to. 😁
