Correction, I am now loaded with ads and the site is unusable in many cases.
Just wondering if these "ads" are a way to generate money for the Advisor?

Hopefully clarification is forthcoming concerning this onslaught of adds...
For what it's worth, when LVA first started tossing the popups in our faces, I switched to Firefox for my browser when accessing the site and the popups went away. I don't know if you can stuff Firefox down an Android or iPhone's throat, though. My Motorola Android phone pretty much does what it wants, paying minimal attention to me.

This morning it has become almost impossible to utilize the Forums because of the ever increasing barrage of these ads. If this continues I can forsee less usage of this website as it currently is becoming less user friendly.

I just did a quick search thru the other Forum topic groups and I do not see the onslaught of these ads - the onslaught in the Sink seems to isolated to that part of the Forums....

Good catch, I hadn't noticed, but I think you're right
Get the Firefox Focus or DuckDuckGo browser. It takes care of the ads. You can find them in your App Store. You can also report ads you see multiple times or ads that cover up the content directly to Google by clicking on the small triangle on the ad itself.
Another way to kill the ads is through the use of a VPN just make sure you set your IP for something outside the United States.

Forum on Chrome iPad:

Working on adjustments. Let us know if it's any better.
Not much of an improvement. Taken in iOS with an iPhone 16 using Chrome and an American IP. Looks worse in safari. I must confess when I saw the ad in the forum with a cartoon cat peeing I was highly amused given that the bright yellow urine stream was animated.
