    It's getting right on my tits it's done it about 20 times then stops for a bit and starts again. If I want a gambling app I'll get one I don't need this site redirecting me when I don't want them too >:( >:( >:(

    I'm also getting double ads that overlap the top right of the thread page. Very intrusive.

    While browsing DS on my phone, I keep getting foreign ads at the top of the page, not a language expert but it looks Danish/Norwegian or something like that, and I keep getting directed to the App Store when on my iPad >:(

    Yes but I like to support the site, providing it doesn't get too intrusive - but it's now starting to get too intrusive.

    Not on iPhones. On Android phones you can get various adblockers. On rooted Android phones, you can get very good adblockers.

    I've always personally failed to see the point of an advert bouncing you out of the site you're visiting to the app store ..

    Glad it's not just me. It's making me want to throw my phone at the wall! This sort of thing has never happened on my phone before when using DS. Will it be like this from now on or is it just a temporary thing?

    It's usually just a glitch in the advertising - it shouldn't be permanent

    Hi everyone,

    Once again very sorry for the frustration and inconvenience caused by redirecting adverts. These are NEVER intended but unfortunately they sometimes slip through the net.

    We have passed this on to our ad team to look into as a matter of priority and get this problem (and some others) resolved.

    Thanks for your patience and apologies once again.

    This is still happening for me, infuriating. >:( Fed up of being redirected to the Will Hill app every few seconds - it's literally as often as that! It's rendered DS unusable for me. Please sort it out!

    I keep getting a very annoying Nissan Qashqai advert that takes over the whole screen in my iPad. The only way to get rid of it is by killing Chrome.

    As well as the Nissan ads I get a McDonald's banner that crosses the page and jumps up and down when I am scrolling. Annoying!

    The last few days the loading of this site has been very slow. I'm getting hanging and crashes. Not happening anywhere else and I'm not harbouring any 'nasties'.

    Glad I'm not alone, the Nissan page keeps loading for me too >:( I don't think you can use Adblock plus on iPads, unless someone knows better and can point me in the right direction please...

    A thoroughly decent chap this DS person. One of my favourite posters.
