hckymeyer Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Just need to gripe for a minute about the new Newsletter banner at the top of the page. It loads a second or two after the page is done. It causes the page to shift downwards a little bit, which happens to be just enough that my mouse is no longer on the new content button. It's on the banner ad and causes me to click it. Same thing happens on the main page when trying to click the Forum link. It's a small gripe as far as gripes go. I can learn to wait a couple seconds before clicking on the new content button. It's just one of those slightly annoying features and wondered if anyone else has experienced this inadvertant clicking of the banner ads? In the picture below we see the offending banner (red arrows), where my mouse starts trying to click on the new content button (blue dot) and where my mouse ends up once the banner loads (green dot) And yes, it's Friday and I have too much time on my hands at the moment Driver: SLDR w/ Fujikura Ventus Black 3w: '16 M2 hl w/ Diamana D+ 82 5w: Launcher HB w/ HZRDUS Yellow Hybrid: 22 deg.

MattF Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I agree. it's a PITA and even if you hit the X to get rid of it, it pops up again.

Kenny B Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Agreed! It's worse on my iPad. “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_divots Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 On the right side of my screen, toward the top, there are two "sponsors" boxes that keep covering up whatever images are in the first post of a thread for me as well. Maybe that is related to this banner thing too? I already get the newsletter.

PlaidJacket Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I've noticed the new Newsletter sign up thing too. TIP -... get an Ad Blocker for your browser. I never see those ads and you won't accidentally click on it either when the page shifts.
