The pop up Ads are slowing down my computer

Yea I get that you want to sell stuff, and I do buy things from your store, please for the love of God stop the popups when I am on the forum, it's slowing down my browser I've tried three just to check, it's bloatware on your webpage, annoying as all get out, and distracting. Please rethink the ads. Thanks.

We do not have any pop-ups on our forums! Which ads are you referring to?

I constantly have pop-ups too and they are very frustrating. Every few “seconds” I see a pop up of every purchase made along with a small photo of the product. Cynthia in Tampa, Florida just purchased . . . ”. “Susan in Syracuse, Indiana purchased... “. “Leah in Jacksonville, Florida purchased .... “. “Catherine in Chelais, Washington purchased . . .”

I come to this sight much less often because of those pop-ups.

I agree, Alex. Why do we need to know who from where bought whatever? Many of us are well aware of the store’s offerings which are great. Please...that pop-up box is super annoying. ?


Thank you, Alex. I really appreciate it. ?
