It keeps popping up and takes up the entire screen.

Is it possible to get a screen capture of it? Also, what device and browser are you using?

This is happening to me too. (NP.) Using Chrome on a desktop.

Just had the same. On Edge/Windows PC.

If possible, please try to follow the instructions here about using the "#audit" tool:

Or try to provide a screenshot.

Unfortunately, short of those to things, you are basically shouting into a void because there is nothing I can do with this limited information.

That is the one. I cannot figure out how to load the snip it I took.

Thanks. I have contacted our ad partner and sent the screenshot. If anyone is able to report the ad using the "#audit" tool, that would be helpful as well.

Giant rustoleum ad that can't be closed.

It's not just rustoleum. I've had different ones all week. The only way to get past them is to shut down the page.

FYI, DCUM does not have any way to "upload" photos. The only way you can post photos/snips/screencaps of something is to take the image, load it on a free hosting site (I used Flickr, but you can use Photobucket, ImgBB or any one of a dozen others). Upload it and then you can use the IMG tags [ IMG ] and [ /IMG ] with the address of the image elsewhere on-line.

Yep, same experience here.

I posted earlier, and now there's another one. Since DCUM doesn't really allow for uploading photos, I'm not going to even try again--it's too much of a hassle to try to go to another site just to try to sort out these stupid ads. Better to just give up a bad habit.

Same for the St. Augustine ad. I can't see any thread responses on the first page because of the ad.

Ads are completely destroying the functionality of the site.
