More ads, suddenly?

[Lucien Nunes]

I've noticed across multiple devices in the last few days what seems to be an increase in advertising intensity. So much so on the mobile that I had to install a different ad blocker otherwise the forum was basically unusable, the ads completely drowning out the content. If it is a real change and not a result of my browsers being updated etc, then my impression is that it is counterproductive.

I accept your apology. ?. Just my sense of humour.

I'm sure I got a message saying several members had been moved to esteemed by decision of a moderator. Maybe not. Not to worry either way.

If anything, the badge has made me more cautious about how comments are worded.

I have plenty to say on many topics, but on the subject of electricity my knowledge is exceptionally limited - hence the proponderance of questions among my comments ?

Don't try to be too clever with your English, just because you're leccy lacking..........your spelling's lacking, too... it's 'prep'.?
I've got 'esteam coming out of my ears'.

Then I should lose it for incorrectly spelling the word!

Meant to add that I look forward to learning from @David Anthony and am pleased that he got set up with an adblocker to make life a bit easier. The wealth and diversity of opinions here often make for great reading.

it's OK. buzz has just announced his new online course for nvq in spelling. send him $1000 in bitcoin space credits and you're guaranteed a pass.

Finally got around to re-sitting my English GCSE last year, in preparation for lektrikal studies. I reckon it was reading Buzz's posts that helped me scrape through.

I didn't mean it as a critism, just a reflection on the relationship between your active participation and the number of ads you were able to block while on this forum
