Lucky me, no matter how many times I click on the two little lines in the top right corner the adds just keep coming back after about 30 seconds or so.

I can give you the solution again. And again. And again.

"use the Brave browser with the uBlock Origin extension."
well thanks for the solution. Looks like I'm gonna have to find a teenager to do it. I don't have a clue what a Brave browser is or how to use it.

I bet if you googled "brave browser" and then "ublock origin extension for brave browser" - you'd get things to read that explain it. What browser do you use now? Edge, Internet Explorer?

I am not gonna jump through my ass to get rid of the crap that blocks the screen.
My personality will not allow that happen.
I will just find that I go to the Campfire less and less .....until I go no more.

The pop up let me know there will be Olympic break dancing. Now I'm sure to tune in to the games.

This is not the worst site for annoying pop-ups that I have visited, but it ranks right up there. The latest is a feature on break dancing in the Olympics. I'm sure we all can't wait to see that. At least one can get rid of them if they are in the way. GD

I haven't seen a pop up here in literally over a decade, maybe 2. Easily. Same for basically every website I visit, with the exception of the ones asking me to subscribe to their news letter or whatever.
Originally I was Firefox + adBlock, now it's been Chrome + adBlock. Solution found/solved. I also don't run a pile of extensions, I don't click on ads, I don't enter every contest I can find, giving up my email address, I also don't EVER allow a site to "send notifications" or "would like to know your location". Zero issues.

Any reason why it might be my job to make sure the ads and pictures and general junk don't ruin my 24Hour experience?
It's been crap for over a week.
