robertc Posted January 3, 2014 Posted January 3, 2014 In the past few weeks, all wikia sites (which includes the BBT wiki) have terrible popup ads. On my Android phone, I will load a page and after a few seconds the entire screen goes dark. Then I have to scroll down to see an ad, and close it. On my Windows computer, the entire screen goes dark and sometimes I don't even see the ad. This is all sites that contain "wikia" in the name. A lot of other TV fan wikis use wikia, and they have the same problem. Around the same time this started happening, they added a blue menu floating button. Have you all noticed this?

Tensor Posted January 3, 2014 Posted January 3, 2014 I haven't had any problems. But then I'm normally running Safari in iOS and OSX. YMMV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Pollard Posted January 3, 2014 Posted January 3, 2014 Haven't noticed any of that, to be honest. I use the AdBlock Plus and NoScript plugins on Firefox, which makes my web surfing 99.44% ad-free. Honestly, I never would have known about any of this if you hadn't said it.

robertc Posted January 3, 2014 Posted January 3, 2014 That's what I get for running an old Android and no blockers. But somebody did a bad redesign of wikia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertc Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 I went back to the site last night and there were no popup ads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
