Lucky you, I have had to reply via my phone as like & reply tabs only open the ad.
What are you using to keep it off, not had any problems previously when others have been complaining?
I've just put on ad-block ultimate on my works computer and that has stopped the issue. It causes problems on other sites but hopefully GM will have resolved this soon and I can remove it again.

I can only speak from personal experience.
I use Google Chrome as my default browser and I use 2 free 'blockers'.
Adblock which doesn't seem to do much and Adblock Plus which has blocked 9 ads on this site.

I can not see who the author of each post is.
I can not give anyone a "like" either, because the ads are covering that side of the screen as well.
Basically - its knackered.
It really should not take long to fix by way of removal.
None of this is endearing us to LIV - so why persist with something that is lose-lose?

Has anyone tried installing Adblock Plus and it hasn't solved the problem ?

Maybe Adblock Ultimate blocks the adds before Adblock Plus sees them or maybe different blockers work better on different browsers

This ad completely destroys a reasonable viewing of this forum on my ipad2, my desktop is fine. Annoying it’s users isn’t going to benefit the forum or those that wish to advertise on it.

I use several IBs and chose according to which site I am using. Some sites do not let you use them with an adblocker turned on.

The ad fits in with the LIV brand perfectly; Invasive, loud, annoying and wholly un-necessary.

Possibly. I'm not that technically aware. I just know it works and I can't see the LIV ad.
Just wanted to update that this has been reported, I can absolutely see the issues with the ad and even though I'm deaf I can hear it coming through my headphones on the other side of the room. I'll be chasing it up again if it isn't resolved by this afternoon - thanks to everyone who messaged us about it and I'm sorry it's so oppressive and impacting on the community.

Thank you
The ad should now be gone, please let us know if it shows up again.

The LIV advert disappeared yesterday making the forum much more user friendly. But this morning a Pro V advert has taken its place covering the bottom of the screen on my phone and resizing pages every time I click on a new thread. Haven't checked to see if it's as bad as the LIV one was on my laptop with the sidebars covering content but surely they do some testing before these ads go live.

I only realised as I’ve looked at this thread that the side bats have gone!!
