@vitrsna have you tried logging off the site and then logging back in using your password? I generally don't log off, but sometimes doing stuff like that resets things.
The ads aren't consistent in showing up. E.g., on this thread I'm not seeing any today. I've noticed when I'm actively viewing a thread, they drop off after a viewing. When I'm trying to catch up on a thread with lots of posts, I see a lot of the ads. Not sure if that's clear, but a couple of threads which have many pages of posts have caught my interest and I'm wanting to possibly participate, but have been reading all the posts from the beginning to see if my questions have already been addressed. I'm currently somewhere in the middle of a thick book with many chapters on one
. The ads just make getting to the end seem more tedious. They may not at all, but they certainly mean more scrolling to get through them all. Maybe ads show up on a 1st visit sort of basis? This thread doesn't have too many pages, so it's interesting I'm not seeing them currently because some were there previously. Tech stuff - so naturally I'm sinking in the bog
