Ad not loading

I don’t know what happened but some ads were not loading today.

Instead of an ad, I was getting the message
“This ad used too mane resources for your device, so Chrome removed it.”


What’s that about?
And what kind of ad may cause this issue?

I assume that you are complaining as an Admin, rather than a mere mortal. Us mortals should be standing on the tables and cheering when an ad fails to deface an internet page. :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing:

He’s a mod. No special adblocking powers there.

Some ads are entertaining. I just don’t want to miss the next “Taste the rainbow” :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Very fortunately, Forumosa has not gone into advertising to the extent that some websites have.

To see what damage that can be done, have a look at www.cyclingnews.com - it used to be a great site for cycling news but in the past few years some new and greedy management has all but wrecked it by overdosing it with adverts and to a lesser extent by paywalls. The Desktop version is bad enough, the Mobile version has almost been rendered unreadable.

Damn. I was hoping for ‘Sponsored by @yinggeaussie’ posts at the top of the page.

It’s not even good englishes. I smell a rat.
