Getting Ridiculous

rustyshakelford · Jun 16, 2015

This pop-up issue has been going on long enough. It's ruining the forum experience. This is the only site I have problems on. I'm sure it's only about the almighty dollar to the owners but I'd be willing to pay. I'm sick of it. Other issue is I can't paste here. It's not my devises, it's this website. I'm on an iPad or iPhone. Every other forum is fine but this one won't allow the paste button unless I try literally 20+ times.

This place has an incredible amount of knowledge and I'd hate to miss out on that but can you fix it like it was a month or so ago?

What has to happen for this to be resolved? I'm sure you wouldn't care about a member leaving so threatening to stop coming would mean nothing to you and I'd miss out on some helpful posts.

I for one would hate to see you go. Hopefully someone with the high tech experience can help you out.

I guess I'm fortunate,I never get any pop-ups or notices that they were blocked.

I have no experience with Apple products, but I've found Adblock Plus to be quite effective on Windoze and Ubuntu platforms - I usually run Firefox.

You might take a look at the next thread down (http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/news-feedback/339178-forum-update-test-out.html) which discusses the new skin which gets rid of said popups.
You might also look into upgrading from the Safari browser to Chrome and installing the AdBlock+ extension. Pages will load faster and you will use less data.

Try this. Disclaimer: I haven't tried it because I don't have an iPad. I do have the Adblock Plus add-on installed on Firefox and I never see a pop-up on this site or any other.

On my iPhone, I use the Tractorbynet app and never see a pop up using it either. Hang in there Rusty.

I tried it when they first released it. Don't care for it but it seems better. Can't see which threads I've posted to, still got ads due to most threads not being moved over and don't know how to see what forum chapter the threads are in.

They added a link to the "user control panel" now so you can see your subscribed threads. Still no way to see what forum its in yet.

What browser are you using?
Just download another one and use that.
I run all three - IE, Firefox and Chrome.
Usually have them all running at the same time and switch back and forth depending on what I want or don't like about a website.
