No doubt it has gotten a lot worse. The advertising videos playing automatically is especially special!

It's ridiculous. This is the ONLY website that does it. The problem is THIS website.
If you access this website with an iPhone, the redirects are simply ridiculous.

I believe that I am using AdBlock Plus, at the earlier suggestion of others here. I get no ads, even the good ones about scopes, ammo, etc.

Best one was this am when an ad video starts playing trying to sell me tampons.

Worst is when 2 start playing simultaneously and the audio for each is playing. What a CF.

I enjoy you-tube runnin in the background,including Corvus Corax the band, and Gladys Knight and the pips.

when the audibles, especially the Spaniards begin to conflict, I feel really violated.

I think the audibles are a fairly new invention to come along and infest this site. I don't know what of the Spanish ads are speaking.

Gillette I know about. and I don't want to hear it. Gladys, I'm sorry. I truly am.

Yea, it's really bad. When the ads start, you can't even pause them most of the time. When you do, they just start playing again.

If it was going to be fixed on the website end, it would have been long ago.

On the bright side, someone can always ask for a full refund for they paid for membership here... wink

the audibles continue to run on my machine. silence them, and in just a moment a new one pops up...and so on and so forth.

I know we don't pay for access to this site. but I'm beginning to wonder if members shouldn't be receiving a rebate, much like the electric membership corporations offer rebates.

it'd help salve the pain a bit.

It's doing it on my PC. It's been happening all week. There are generally 3 windows at the bottom of the page that are running the video ads. Right now it's only 1.

Done.

Rick, when I logged back on, and went to look at "my stuff" there were still 26-27 items appearing in "Cookies".

That normal ?

I just started getting the videos today, hadn't seen them before. I have to shut off the sound now because they start running every time I open a thread. I'm running every kind of adblocker, anti-spyware, anti-virus, etc. that I can think of and crap still keeps coming through on this site. ONLY on this site. Pretty much every piece of anti-anything software I've put on my computer is because I had to have it to keep this site running. I'm even using Chrome to try and make it work and I hate dealing with Google.

Yea, I know it's free. But it sure is a pain in the a$$ trying to keep this site working when you're not a computer geek.

Bingo fixed it.

Down loaded it, all better now.

Right now, as I type this it's showing 16 blocked ads.

Last night I ran CCLEANER, which cleans out the cookies. This morning it was still running the ads. So I downloaded ADBLOCK on my PC and haven't had a problem since. I didn't do it on Crome, I loaded it on Mozilla and has been working great.

Give me a fu.cking break. Since an outdoor blog is free anyone visiting should expect virus', bugs and malware? This site is ricks bread and butter it behooves him to fix this sh.it.

across the web, how many other sites are as much fun as this one?

across the web, how many other sites causes as much problems as this one does?

where is the balance point/tipping point?

the snakes that creep onto this site seems to be increasing in both size and numbers.

how do we best kill off a bunch of the invading snakes?

I work in online media. Rick's choosing to have auto-roll, auto-sound videos because they pay a higher CPM. But he now has three video ad spots coded, so if you have a long thread, you get assailed with multiple ads. The more he puts intrusive ads on the site, the more people will install adblocker, which costs him money. It's a death spiral.

Maybe sell your guns and take up cooking so you can hang out on the cooking web sites exclusively.

I run 4 different devices with Firefox and AdBlocker and have nary a slight twitch with any of them here. I don't think I lead a charmed life for some unknown reason. Maybe its those "other" sites that you visit that are maybe giving you the internet's version of the clap. Have you ever tried clearing your cache and cookies and your computer history in your lifetime?


It's official. I missed the selfie deadline so I'm Maser's sock puppet because rene and the Polish half of the fubar twins have decided that I am.

Like others, if there was anything I knew that would help.......I'd certainly pass it along.

I run Firefox and Adblock Plus on my desktop. I also access the site with an iPhone 6. I absolutely have no problems. I experience none of the problems which many others have related.

I have cleared cookies......I do on a consistent basis. And I consciously installed Adblock Plus. Beyond that, there is nothing special with my environment. I certainly did nothing special with the iPhone. I'm a complete neophyte with the smart phone technology.

If youre on windows, get Chrome, get adblock plus, get spywareblaster. Google how to install this kind of crap. If youre on an iphone, live with your overpriced POS.
