Just login to see what's new. Omg what the hell. The posts are full of bloody Adverts.
If this how this once excellent forum is likely to continue.. I am gone for good. I simply cannot put up with posts being cut in half by advertising.

Always had adverts?! I've actually cut them down from what Google was recommending. There should be no posts cut in half and a maximum of 3 ads per page.
Far less than Instagram, Facebook, ITV!

Rob, yesterday I got two ads then one single post then another two ads, I understand the need to claw back some costs of running the forum but it's nearly as bad as YouTube. I hate the Google search bar also ☹️ sorry.

Have you tried UBlock Origin? Just sits in most browsers.
