What's up with the ads??

rlworzalla · April 2016

Is anyone getting a crazy amount of advertisements scattered in between posts, discussions, etc? WTH Bump??

gamommyx3 · April 2016

Yup and I don't like it. Thumbs down, Bump!

js8812 · April 2016

And it's not like they just added one or two spots. They are bombarding everything! I can tell it slows the site down for me, too.

rlworzalla · April 2016

It's making all of the pages double the length just to find a post. Not cool Bump....not cool.

LadySamLady · April 2016

Seriously!! @BumpAdmin what is up with all the ads?!?

yogahh · April 2016

Yeah the ads... whats up with that, whats up with that?

jason sudeikis snl zach galifianakis whats up with that disco flute

rlworzalla · April 2016

I love how they put a gigantic ad right above my meme.....it's slowing everything down! @bumpadmin what gives with these ads?

finnybooboo · April 2016

Anyone else also having trouble with sorting? I have mine set to show most recent post by date (not recent activity) but it seems to be displaying posts with recent activity. Super annoying to find new threads!

vinerie · April 2016

These ads are terrible! It totally slows down the site. @bumpadmin you are really messing with my bumping zen. I'm nearly 36 weeks pregnant. I can't sleep, walk or breath. Don't take bumping away from me, too!

wsgjmw1 · April 2016

Not just one add but excessive amounts of adds in between the threads, really obnoxious

evalynn24 · April 2016

This is crazy! It's fine on the app, but @bumpadmin the posts are STILL not sorting correctly! Please fix this ASAP. You currently have a lot of unhappy users!

Giant vomit of ads. Lovely.

Trying to increase the revenue stream I see...

JennyS86 · April 2016

really not a fan!

dsmith211 · April 2016

Definitely switched back over to the app. The ads were driving me nuts. I actually thought page was just loading weird online and kept refreshing it over and over.

Kurrant · April 2016

I haven't seen this... I use chrome as my browser and have an ad blocker. No ads for me!!

maybe give that a try.

folamij · April 2016

I only bump using the app. No ads on here but the posting timeline is super disoriented.

rlworzalla · April 2016

Ugh...I wish I could use the app! But I'm tired of getting halfway through a post and a message pops up that says "you don't have permission to do that" and I can't post

. Sadly, Chrome won't work on my computer - slows it down too much!

folamij · April 2016

Nooooooo I jinxed it! Now the app is all weird and full of ads! Why, TB, why?! Major dislike.

TXmamatobe · April 2016

I'm on the app only and there are tons and tons of ads. At least ten on this thread for me.

folamij · April 2016

@TXmamatobe do you also need to zoom in to see anything? The app has everything super small! My phone updated and it's been chaos on this app all day today..

I don't have to zoom in but posts are not in any type of order at all. Just random.

Kurrant · April 2016

I guess I'm done bumping on the phone . . . I wish I read this before I updated the app! I also wish I could get an ad blocker for the phone like I have for the browser.

Hell, I'd rather pay a few dollars for ad-free bump than have a free one that is so cluttered and ugly.

So much this! I would rather be charged a small monthly fee than deal with this ish.

Nicbert1214 · April 2016

Wow totally not feeling the zillions of ads or the redesign of this app, it's terrible, I wish I never updated my iOS

mcb2016 · April 2016

It's not just the app. There are tons of adds now on my laptop as well.

amberraysofdawn · April 2016

The ads have finally showed up for me (on the app...I run an ad blocker on my browser but I rarely bump from there) and I am suuuuuuper duper annoyed with how many times I've had to back out of a few screens just to continue what I've been reading. Not cool, Bump.

lbachran · April 2016

Seriously, Bump? Ads everywhere on the boards and the 3rd trimester symptoms post keeps generating a giant pop up that I can't click away from unless I close the app. I've gone in and out of that post a dozen times and can never get past the damn pop up! That's an important post, especially with 2 days to go, fix this!

amberraysofdawn · April 2016

Quick question for everybody out there - are you all still seeing the ads on the mobile website? I'm more specifically interested in those of you who have an iPhone/iOS device with Safari on it...I may have found a solution to the ad issues.

(The general Bump registry ad at the top of each page doesn't count. I'm mean the ad experience that we are currently having in the app, and the ones I assume are on the desktop site as well, which I don't have access to at the moment.)

SGPhotography · April 2016

Just updated my app and now it's ads city. Dislike!!!! Agree with PP that I'd rather pay a few $ than have this ad crap.

mcb2016 · April 2016

I see no adds on my iPhone w safari. The only add free way I've seen so far. I just like using my laptop during the day

amberraysofdawn · April 2016

Just put up a more detailed post on the Randoms board because lots of people tend to chat on that pretty frequently, so it has a better chance for being seen by more people...but as far as I can tell, long story short, just get rid of the app if you mainly use TB with your iPhone and replace it with a link directly to the website instead. I'm going to play around with different browsers/devices (because I'm such a nerd about stuff like this), but hopefully this'll work for now. Just not sure if it's actually ad-free and for whatever reason they can't add them to the mobile site, or they just haven't updated it yet, or if it has to do with content blockers, etc.
