These Aramco ads are breaking through to full page on multiple browsers in iOS. It's been more persistent in the last 24 hours than before, happening every 5-10 pageloads.

Count me in as also getting the full screen Honda ads. CONTSTANTLY. I don't even have to refresh the page to get them. I literally got one while typing this post.

have you talked to the media agency about making sure NO full screen ads are being delivered to Era? I assume if there's no full screen media placement on this domain then they can't deliver them at all.

Going forward, if you guys can provide screenshots of this stuff in addition it would help immensely.

While trying to post the first screenshot below I got 3 more full-screen ads (!), so I saved another one.

Ads are still a major problem. Not sure what takes so long to let the media agency know they can't deliver full page ads on mobile anymore.

Full screen ads popping up multiple times without reloading the page that I'm on.
An America First anti Pelosi ad at the bottom of the Trump NYT's article recent thread from today saying "censure" Pelosi.

Not looking good here.

Sweet. Just had an ad try to download some random shit onto my computer.

choices.truste.com or something, who the fuck knows.

I don't care if the site earns less by switching ad providers, you need to do it.

This isn't being addressed appropriately and it needs to fucking stop. "We've received your reports and are working on it," doesn't cut it anymore.

Add me to the Aramco and Honda ads. They keep coming up almost repetitively. About to stop using the forum on mobile. I mean it came up just now trying to type up this post .

One of these ads is taking up the entire screen on my iPhone when I'm typing in a reply. It happened twice to me during one reply. Oh yeah, aramco. I don't know what they're selling, but I'm definitely never buying it. I've reported the ad twice now. The incessant ad reloading is really annoying, too.

The ones that scroll in the background can go to hell, too.

Getting this constantly like to the point I'm about to use an add blocker someone sure is getting rich of this site aren't they.

Every 5 mins or so this stupid add pops up and takes over the screen.

Yeah I think I'm done visiting Era until this gets sorted out. Full screen Aramco ads constantly and the automatic page shifting while reading the forums because of the automatic reloading of ads in the backgrounds of the pages. I'll be reading and bam page shifts losing the place where I was reading. Unbearable and seems like nothing is being done about it but "we are aware and reached out to the ad agency".

Four times in the last hour. Amazing. The money must be good to not remove them yet.

Ok, I'm glad you guys are seeing this, I thought I had adware on my phone. I don't mind ads, honestly! But full screen pop up ads are annoying. I get that the site needs money but do better than this pls...

Getting full screen ads every few minutes now. Chrome on iOS. Seems worse than it was before. Unacceptable.

These Honda ads are making phone browsing impossible for the past week. Don't know how this stuff stays up for so long
