All of a sudden I started getting audio commercials while on Hearth. Is that new or do I have a problem?
 
Not intentional. Any visual ad ? Or just audio?
 
Audio Nissan commercial. Browser tab is displaying a speaker icon that when hovered on says "This tab is playing media".
 
I will take a look thanks. Maybe getting in via google ads.
 
I just started getting an certificate error when I log on. It started this morning.
 
Can you send me the error.

Came here to complain about the forum speed last night and today. It was hanging big time, and every time the bottom of my Chrome window was reporting it was waiting to load an Amazon.com ad. Now I see new ads in-line, breaking up the middle of threads.

Ads are a part of life, I understand, but it seems some of the recent changes are affecting usability and enjoyment of this forum.
 
Can I donate to remove ads?
