I realized I happened to be on the site but not logged in. In that mode there was alot more adds and it was annoying. Each person that starts a thread has an add in as well. However, when I went to reply I realized I wasn't logged in. As soon as I left the site and then logged back in correctly those adds dissapeard even the one that was in this inital thread. I never noticed that before.

Yes the ads are a mess. The screen has to keep adjusting and rendering all of the nonsense. I am chasing the post I want to click on, and have to wait for everything to settle down each time I try to return to the page and click another post..

That is low end. Not good for this site.

Not good for any site.

Re: Firefox. I tried it a while back and REALLY liked it, but it got to where most of the time it didn't work right or wouldn't boot up at all. That was about 2 years ago. Is it reliable now?
