    What's with the apps in the middle of the page on mobile? Can't clear them. No "x". They stay as you scroll. Really inconvenient...

    Just got one this morning, it shows up, takes up half the screen, no place to "x" out of the ad, I can't click on anything except the ad, and I can't navigate anywhere on Clutchfans. The only way to navigate to another page is to type something in the address bar.

    Super annoying experience

    Having the same problem. No x to rid it, and won't even let me post at times. I have to keep leaving the site and coming back. Very annoying, especially as a paying member.

    @Clutch happening on almost every page. Can't like posts, or even click to the next page without refreshing the page and quickly clicking before the ad shows up again.

    Yep want to complain about this as well. The ads in this site are super annoying to begin with now since they are on top, bottom and in the middle of a thread but these new ads take up half the page and you can’t get rid of them without refreshing the page.

    So if I’m typing a post sometimes the ad will pop up and I can’t type anymore or post my reply.

    These are about the worst type of ads I have ever seen. Even ads on p*rn sites or sports streaming will have an X to close them.

    Yep I keep on getting an add with Trevor Lawrence selling Crypto that does that. The only way to get rid of it is to refresh.

    If y'all have an Android phone, use Firefox Focus as the browser. All the bad ads are blocked.

    Not on crypto currency. I'm not in on those.

    Certainly not on anything about Trevor Lawrence.

    So today a Keds ad popped up that covered the entire page with no way to close it.

    Really classy.

    @Clutch
    This site is becoming impossible to use on a mobile device (Android) due to this ad issue.

    I absolutely hate this issue, too, but just FYI that I've figured out if you scroll the link you want to click to the very top or bottom of the page it'll be clickable.
