Ads messing up browsers

[alfa]

Fixed on my laptop - Thank you.

Duane: Maybe your advertisers could be a little bit more creative in their ad placements on the site.

That experiment failed because it shrunk the available space on the right, left and top sides of our screens. I think the constant scrolling also got people upset.

But I am not a techie.

Suppose that was how it was designed to work in that you are bombarded with Digicel in your face everytime your try to scroll. Either way it's working normal now. Thanks

The auto scroll is back.

ads shouldn't mess up your entire browsing experience like that

Time to move to adblock. This auto scroll is annoying.

[matr1x]

its very annoying

[bluefete]

What the hell?

It is back like a bad nightmare.

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

Can you explain the "autoscroll" so I can send it to the agency?
Because there is no auto scroll feature on the ad
The icons do follow the user down the page - is that what you mean?
The blocking of the page content was fixed

[Strugglerzinc]

On Android with Chrome, the page returns to the top ad banner when completely loaded. Every page.

Usually I'm already halfway down the page when it auto scrolls back to the top.

No issues on PC.

Tell the ad agency that people don't like ads following them everywhere. When they scroll past an ad, they don't want to see it again. If they were interested the first time, they would just scroll back up and click on it. It's very annoying and more like an invasion of privacy. Like someone following you around with a billboard after you say "no thanks." We saw the ad. Thanks. I don't want it grinding up on me like it's a fete after i scrolled past it. Tell them that that model is wrong. You're seeing that Trinituner's demographic not welcoming that model.

Ok understood
Yes that would be a glitch that needs to be fixed asap
thanks

UPDATE: we were able to replicate it here and we sent it to the agency. They are working on a fix.

Sorry for the inconvenience

On page 2....it had a on both sides gradually from white to black.
On page 3...the ad returned.

This is very true. You would like to think that the marketers and creative consultants would have know that this is the worst model possible to attract any traffic. But then again, given the prevalence of people spending time on tuner to rah rah, having an ad in their face following them can work.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Swear this real annoying

[pugboy]

yeah esp as you start to scroll or read something at the start of clicking on a page and then 3 arc later it jump scrolls to the top

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

We stopped the ads until they can fix it.
Sorry for the inconvenience caused

edit: Ads were fixed and running again

[trinigamer]

Maggi ads now

[sMASH]

me no bothered too much by the ads. what bothering me is im viewing a portrait layout on a landscape monitor, and have to center wheel scroll more cause what supposed to be one line is made into 4 lines cause my lateral real estate is occupied by ads i dont watch.

hmmn, have me thinking to get 3 large 1080p monitors, and mount them portrait.

[Rovin]

just a fyi to duane : no problem on my end , everything is working fine for me ...

[Strugglerzinc]

No problem on desktop because i ent seeing any Maggi ad, but similar to before for tablet viewing, it goes straight to the ad when the page done load, regardless of where you are.

This time if you get to close to the bottom of the page, the ad popping up from below too.

Eeeet start back...similar to the digicel ads

[pugboy]

happens randomly on my phone

and just did a second time as i typed this sentence .

[elec2020]

The browser on my phone jumps all over the place when loading up. Similar to what was happening when the new ads was placed on the site

[xtech]

Come on fellas where are your Christmas spirit?

It’s 2020 and Duane have money to make.

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

I reached out the ad agency and they are working on it

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Different ad, same issue

[rollingstock]

I stopped logging in because of this. Makes the site very frustrating to use.

[wing]

I agree, kinda ruining the experience.
