I've suddenly started getting pop-up ads here at RHP and that's never happened before. Anyone else?

Displaying ads to non-subs is ok, but not pop-up ads😠

and actually, i've noticed that they are in fact related to the ads in the top left corner of the rhp page. like the 'luxor' ad for example, and 'wheel of fortune', 'diner dash'...

Russ, maybe your advertisers have changed their content recently?

EDIT: they're 'realArcade' ads, if that helps

Um...

Ok, I may owe you guys an apology.

A new ad network introduced recently is probably at fault.

Can anyone tell me which page they are viewing when the ad appears?

(forums, board view, etc..?)

I'm not getting any ads and I have my Google toobar set to allow pop-ups from RHP. Strange.

I don't know if this was meant to be sarcasm, but it makes sense that you wouldn't since you are a subscriber. 🙂

I use Firefox and don't remember what an ad is.
