Just started seeing these today. Super annoying. Not just in the sidebar, the add completely replaces the board/entire page. How incredibly obnoxious.

I'm pretty sure those are not normal and should be reported.

These kinds of bad ads sometimes slip through the ad providers. They are NOT intentional. I'm sorry when this happens. Please do report it if you can.

Just got a full page Subway ad that replaced the game in progress.

If you get it again can you use the link above to report? Staff blocked that through one method but that would help to see how else it might be coming through.

I think it's broken for me. There are multiple pages opening spamming me every time I try to play. I think I'm just going to find another site.

The ads pop up on a new tab. And you cannot see your game anymore. Just by viewing this message board I got redirected to a new tab several times. The message is clear get paid subscription or get out.

That's a new bug. Staff are aware and are looking into it
