Same here with ads by “Whispers” showing two guys rubbing on each other. Not that there’s anything wrong with that but I would rather not see it. 

Can anything be done about it?

Couple questions.  
1. Have you seen the ad in question yet?  
2. How do you change to that format?  It used to be on the bottom of the page but, I can’t find it anywhere.  Or did I get whooshed?

Not ad related but didn't think neccessary to start another thread.

Anyway, is there a way to get notified if someone quotes your post or gives you rep? Or am I just missing it? Cheers.

If you provide your address, they’ll mail you a letter whenever that happens.

Seriously though… if you’re going to frequent the site, wouldn’t you be able to see it for yourself?  Or are you a tittians troll???  Dun,dun dun!!!

hate em, but as a courtesy I allow ads on the site just to throw a few bones to the team that keeps the show running.

I did notice after a few you can shrink them out of view.

Do appreciate you letting the ads show, but they really shouldn't be disruptive. I don't like disruptive advertisements too.

Donations were previously discussed; unfortunately it really complicates things as that requires regular maintenance and following up with donations unless we were to use something like Patreon (who then would take a cut). I don't think there was much interest in it before, so I didn't bother going down that route.

Can't ya'll do some sort of fund raiser? Maybe a Go Fund Me or something? Are ya'll allowed to do that?

Hell, I'd donate $$ no problem.. This is my home, dude.. Sometimes your home needs a new coat of paint..

So I think I figured it out: They are "Anchor ads". 

   

Turns out Google AdSense was 'running an experiment', where it showed anchor ads to 50% of users (and of course, I wasn't one of those users). 
A while ago, I had permitted AdSense to run experiments, but ONLY for non-signed-in users. 

I have completely turned off all of that.

Doesn’t happen every time I enter a thread, but happens to me a couple of times a day.

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.
