Adblockers are cool and best of all, they work.

Firefox + AdBlock Plus + UBlock Origin. No more ads. I don't look at forwardlook.net on my phone, so I can't speak to that.

Well, it's gotten absolutely ridiculous - - - to the point of even clicking on a recent member's post triggering a stupid ad that has nothing to do with Forward Look stuff!  Pretty discouraging!

I already don’t come on here as often as I used to.
Ads take over the whole page!!!!!
Site needs a remodel.
Ads booting you off screen is kinda a deal breaker

Google just went @#$@$%@#$% nuts. There's supposed to be just one ad on the bottom of the page, but something got very whacked. I'm turning them off completely.  This is ridiculous. Sorry about all the spam.

Yes, thanks moocho!  Glad to know it was a snafu and not some AI take-over of our website!  :)
