Default HDforums, iPad and pop up?
I use the iPad and Safari to browse the forums. It has become almost useless due to one pop up. Am I the only one with this problem? Here is the pop up that appears on most every page and sometimes locks up the iPad. How can I stop it?

I get that one and two others on my Android pad. Sometimes once in awhile, but more often now it pops up so often I get off the site and go elsewhere.

Do a search on this, I'm using an IPAD and Safari also. Did something to it months ago that fixed the issue, no pop-ups now.

Yup. I shot an email to Cadillac letting them know that thanks to that ad, I'd never buy one of their cars. And it's a reminder that this forum is run as a money maker, not for riders.

Today it is Cadillac, yesterday it was something else with the same ad. The forum owners can decide what kind of ads they'll use and this type should not be allowed. I'm tired of trying to find a different motorcycle forum.

If it wasn't for the sponsors ( ads ) of which I'm not fond of either, there wouldn't be a Forum ... Sometimes you've got to take the good with the bad.

I'm not complaining about ads in general but when they become so intrusive that they ruin the forum experience they're counter productive.

Same problem for me. I'd like to know a solution. Sometimes the ads lock up the screen and I have to get out of the forum, come back to try to read something.
