Oh gee. I guess I should apologize, too. This thread IS now officially a fustercluck. Not because of it's content, but because the latest posts are now half hidden by the banners on the right-hand margin. In fact, all that can be seen is the LEFT half of those posts, which proves my original point! shocked

Edit by Reboot - This post was moved from here, where the problem shows.

All the threads and posts in all forums have been covered by the banners for ever and it has become a natural thingy it's been going on so long blush ...I have to click on reply tp read all of the posts or scroll down till I get past the banners. Perhaps I may have insulted someone during the 8 years when Bush was in office...is that paranoia ...fer sure...so now its happening to you...I have switched into conspiracy mode. No one ever mentioned the problem so I just went along with it. Is that insane ? Wait don't answer that grin I just feel relieved that it's no longer just me....pretty selfish on my part kinda sorta, eh !! laugh
but I am not alone wink

Wow, y'all. I'm familiar with that banner / ad cover thingie, but I'm totally not seeing it. Only on rare occasion and it's been a long time.

Hmmmmmm. Maybe a mention in the site feedback room?

They're probably using old fart threaded mode.

We used to have the problem with large pics, they fixed that, but it still happens with long urls or run on sentences, or if one is viewing it in threaded mode, when the thread gets long the ads overlap.

Things seem to have settled, maybe it's time we bring it up again.

Threadapult!!!!

Neil,

Here's the original thread where the problem appears, switch to threaded mode to see it.

Also the reply window can be dragged too big and it will overlap the ads.

Guys,

Don't hit me with a regular stream of "oh great" or "how's this going" as I don't have the time, but I've just found a clue on this ... it may have something to do with Clark's broken avatar.

I've sent a note to the developer to investigate.

Neil
