I'm on desktop and the ads are yelling at me. They are not popping out or anything, they are just loud and 2 will be going at the same time.

Is there a way to mute them?

Can you send a screenshot and a link to where they take you? I've not personally had any such ads.

Thanks for the heads up.

I just got redirected to a page that wanted me to upgrade my Flash player. I'm on the normal site, using the new Edge browser in Window 10.

I was posting in NFL forum. I just ran 2 virus checks this morning and nothing.

My Gosh, we have free access to the best forum on the Internet and some a gripping about a few popups.


Would you rather Freak sell advertising or charge members a premium?

The man has a family to take care of.

Gramps, I hate popups just as much as these guys. Unfortunately some advertisers are very creative in sneaking them through. If I can get a picture and a url, I can usually track them down and have them removed, however. :hi:

I hate them also. If we were paying membership fees, I would be complaining to. When we have something as good as VN and it is free, we shouldn't be complaining about an ad popping up occasionally, jmo. I am on moblie most of the time, they haven't bothered me.

Thanks for all the work you do to keep this a good site Freak.

I got a pop-up this a.m. on desktop Mozilla browser. Sorry did not take notice of it.

The site does seem very slow to load of late, and often times in connection with pop-ups.

A large ESPN ad keeps appearing at the top of the page and even after I close the ad it comes back - is there anything that can be done to stop it from coming back.
