Ads

[Trina P Holub]

This may seem a bit persnickety to some of you, but if I am paying $20 for an Ace membership, and part of the deal is that I don't have to look at any ads, how come I am seeing a Hyundai ad on the voting pages? I don't think that this is right.

[Kathy A]

I'm seeing a Michael Hill ad.

[Trina P Holub]

I don't even know who that is...LOL

[Kathy A]

@5unflow3r its an Australian jewellery shop.

[Teresa (pocketmouse)]

@5unflow3r I don't have ace but I'm curious - what voting pages do you mean? Do you mean the Theme Votes?

[Kathy A]

@pocketmouse that's where I always see ads and its actually a different ad each time I go to the page.

[Teresa (pocketmouse)]

@kjarn Hm yeah the fact that you're seeing ads is weird - definitely let Ross @Scrivna know.

[Trina P Holub]

@pocketmouse It's actually been several months...I am really surprised that I am the first to mention it (as far as I know).
And yes, the voting for themes and the Top 20 page have the ads.
@kjarn I wonder if it's one of those ad programs that knows where you surf or live...I actually have a Hyundai, so that ad is a total waste on me though.

[Kathy A]

@5unflow3r @pocketmouse I've seen them for quite a few months but didn't know that they weren't meant to be there. I have an ad for Momento photo books on the Top 20 page and on the theme page it changes all the time but all the ads are Australian.

[Kathrin]

@5unflow3r yes I'm seeing it, too .. And that's not okay!

[Ariel]

@5unflow3r I have Ace membership and can't see any ads on the Top 20 page or the Voting Themes - maybe it's a browser thing? I'm using Opera 12.

[Tracy]

I have Ace membership and I see the ads too.

[Amy Spada]

@carmel You have to scroll down to see them. They're not on the side. They are integrated.

[Ariel]

@aspada No, not an ad in sight. On the Top 20, there's the photographs, people's comments, the Post a Comment box, immediately followed by the end of page. At the side, there's just the three side panels. Not a sign of any ad anywhere, even with scrolling right down to the bottom.

[Deb Sulzberger]

I just looked and i have ads too...i am also an Ace ....mmmmm

[Ariel]

... and same for the voting themes. One continuous, unbroken string of comments - I can't see any on the latest voting theme page either.

ETA that's interesting - they do show up in Firefox and IE, but not in Opera. Hmmm.

[Amy Spada]

@carmel I have ads even in Opera...

[Kit Marsden]

I'm not an Ace member, but I don't have any adverts. :/

[Ron Correia]

@5unflow3r Ross will need to comment on the contents of those pages since none of us know how they're constructed. Here's a thought, though. Use Firefox and install the Adblock Plus extension. I haven't seen an ad on any webpage - including Facebook - in over three years.

[Trina P Holub]

@kannafoot since I paid for no ads, I feel I shouldn't have to do anything to block them. They are there because of the code in that page or the CSS and that's simply not cool.

[Jane]

I am also an ace member and I am also seeing ads on voting page... the most recent ad was rf training for an electricians course... ♥

[Moira Brown]

netflights ad also ACE

[Moira Brown]

easyjet now!!

[Ross S.]

hi, Ace members shouldn't be seeing ads on the blog pages, must be a technical problem, i'll look in to it now. Thanks for letting me know.

[Ross S.]

Hi, I've just found the problem and it's resolved. Sorry about that. I've removed the ad.

[Paul Godfrey]

I have been seeing a few ads recently. Looks like 365 is using a Google product that is scanning my browsing history. Otherwise you have a lot of graden shed suppliers working with you.
Paul ace

[Kathy A]

Ads are now gone. Thanks @Scrivna

[Flagged]

@kjarn Yes adds are now gone about i'm looking for a 2012 Hyundia....any ideas?

[Kathy A]

@flagged I've actually been looking at getting a Hyundai too and I'm tossing up between the New Generation i30 or the Veloster.
