How do I make these new pop up videos go away???

[Venice Motor Bikes]

They did something new to the site, & these videos keep popping up in the lower right corner of my screen... They're very lame & annoying.

How do we make them go away permanently?

The moderators have to be vigilant about stopping spam.

They don't look like spam... they look like paid ads & random videos from this site?

Wow, may be time for a program maintenance check

So, you're not seeing any of them???
Are you on this site from your computer, or your phone, or what???

My guess is it's a new revenue stream for Eric who owns the site. If not, someone is tapping into it.

Get a good Browser like the FireFox or better yet the LibreWolf browser using the uBlock plug-in.

You can turn them off, and like a bad penny they will come back.

I am not seeing any of them as pop-ups. There is a "Exoic" address on the extreme right side and I am assuming it is being blocked as a pop-up?
The 5 sponsors of this website are the only ones I see. What web browser are you fellas using? Right now I'm on FireFox with the "Bluhell Firewall"
blocker. The LibreWolf browser uses the "Ublock." Both of those browsers are available for Windows. Running Android or IOS could be a problem
getting either browser I mentioned. Just for security reasons I don't run Windows 11 and only use Linux. The standard Android uses Chrome as a
browser it's wide open for pop-ups although a real good browser is available for Android which is called the "Brave" browser available also for
Linux, Windows and even Android. Some of the web sites will give a person problems using the LibreWolf browser with it's tight security. I just
tracked this page using the Brave browser and there are 25 trackers being blocked right now on this site. I am assuming that some of them are
malicious pop-ups. LibreWolf will even block the Sponsor's pop-ups which you might not want to have done.

My phone, I'm not seeing any pop up videos.

Most of the problems the fellas are having is with the browsers and-or fellas clicking on malicious images and links. I noticed a pop-up
image on this site when leaving a message when using FireFox and I wouldn't trust it. I went of the site and came back using LibreWolf
browser and no pop-ups appeared while Ublock showed 439 pop-ups and trackers being blocked. I am using Linux on a computer with
access to 3 different types of browsers.

These pop up advertisements are a serious distraction to a previous perfect forum.
I am a faithful HP Tower user, running MS,10. Is there a ad blocker in settings to stop the intrusion?
Or is this a management income booster?

[erics]

Sorry about this, everyone! I missed this post. Should be taken care of. The ad provider turned these on without asking. . I agree, they look terrible. I just turned them off. Let me know if you still see them after a couple of hours.

Thank-you erics

Thank you, Erics.

On an iPhone 14, no pop ups.. Of course this IS AFTER “Eric’s” had already posted that he had turned them off, so…

Even if they were forced adverts, can you blame him?

The amount of freeloaders (including myself) out number even the registered users 1000 to 10 at any given time.

This is why I feel compelled to TRY and add to the wealth of knowledge found here...

However "okie-fied" and redneck some of my posts might be...
