Is anyone else having this ad take over their entire screen forcing you to click on it regardless of where you click? It's super annoying and on goes ad-blocker

No, it's the same as any ad banner. The Whistler Beyond series one is the exact same

If you're just going to complain and turn on ad-block, don't make a thread.

If you want to give us constructive criticism about the Ads on NS and give us some more information, we can do our best to fix the issue. Start of with what pages you were on, what browser/version you use and what OS you're running.

^ It sounds like a problem that's pretty common on mobile actually.

Is that it? or is it on your desktop... if so I haven't had that problem. Some pics would help i think

Can you try and get rid of this terrible incase pop up ad on mobile? Its on the bottom on every page again and it wont go away.

I just got that ad multiple times and it was just like the whistler and shepa ads, just dropped my page down like 200px probably, didnt inhibit me from any operation. Using chrome and OSX 10.10 (sily apple, that doesnt make sense).

I second this. Nothing is more annoying than the ads that scroll with you.

Okay sounds good, but you know this means I'll just use adblock all the time now right? Rather than making NS aware, I'll just let someone else complain next time

Thats because you're lazy and unappreciative. If you actually wanted to help you'd take screen shots and give us info about your browser and os. You still haven't done that so you're basically saying you don't care and you're using adblock no matter what and just made a thread to get attention. Once again, thanks dude you're helping out a ton!!
