I only access BP from my iPad and since the last update, all of a sudden, there are ads everywhere. Too, too many. I don't mind a few and they should be obviously marked so easily passed by as none hold any interest for me. Can you find a happy balance? Must they appear in EVERY thread? At one time I used a great water tracking app and then they made it burdensome to use with too many ads, so I deleted it and track my water in my LoseIt app. I've found myself spending less time with BP since the app was updated and it will be even less if overwhelmed with ads in every thread.

I don't think we made drastic changes to ads as of late. You can always subscribe to a VIP membership account at $4 per month for a close to ad-free experience

I do appreciate your feedback! We are looking at ways to minimize ads one way or the other. There's a new site being rolled out within the next 90 days which should make BP a lot more pleasant to use and view, on all devices.

My iPad app shows the topics on the left and responses on the right. The day I wrote about this issue, ads were appearing on both sides and appearing mixed in with topics and responses. Now they're gone. Odd.
