Solved Ads woven into/covering content

[BigBlueHen53]

Galaxy 10 phone, Chrome browser I think. I'm not getting the ad overlap but I am getting blank spots where ads should be, and then when the ads appear the messages suddenly jump apart, which is disconcerting if I was just about to text or tap something. I am also getting the text lag, but I just thought I was typing too fast for my poor phone to keep up, lol. Does this have to do with us overloading the system? Have we moved to our new host site yet? Thanks to our awesome admin for staying on top of all this!

I have Windows 10 and use Chrome, and it's been miserable, first with ads, text jumping around, messages not loading, and now this mess with the ads over this screen.
Hope it's getting fixed! I thought it was just me...

Thanks for all the great discussion, examples, and especially screenshots!

We made some changes last week to try to improve the way ads are inserted into content. The jumpy ads issue had come back, so we have been trying to come up with ways to resolve that, but it looks like it unfortunately introduced a few other issues. We're working to find a solution

Same device and everything as you. Same issue +the original issue.

No, we are not on XenForo 2 yet. That is not a new host site, just an updated version I think. Idk, I'm not a tech person.

As long as the site doesn't shut down I don't mind an occasional glitch! No site .... call 911, I'm toast!

You should be happy I’m admitting I have a problem.

Jk, don’t worry, there’s been plenty of action lately too.
