Imho this feels sort of intrusive / annoying and the type of advertising you would not expect at TL. I know those banners that expand if you let the cursor rest on them but this is a full video with sound and it does not close if I move the mouse away again.

I got an ad for goodgamestudios which opens up a new tab any time I click anywhere on the page, regardless of where I click

Ad tag: TF_US.

Could have just been flash being shitty, but could also be a malicious ad

How long will we have these ridiculous popup adverts? Can't keep a liquid tab open while playing games etc.

By popup I don't mean a separate webpage, but videos popping up within TL webpages. Halifax bank is one of them, for me at least. They seem to particularly happen when I'm in another tab, so I have to tab back in to close it.

I get popups on TL since a few days, not 100% sure if only here but I can only recall seeing them on TL. Looks like this:

Is this intended? I might have hovered over the ad-bar but I did certainly not click anything. It's super anoying since it has sound enabled and covers the rest of the site...

This is because you hovered your mouse for 3 seconds over the ad where it says "roll over to view".

I just came here to report the exact same ad, I'm not sure if theres a different wording for an english version of this ad but the German version says "Click Here" in the bottom right corner. However it opens not when you click it but when you hover over it for 3s.

The "open annoying video when you hover over the ad" happens no matter where you hover over it (not just the bottom right corner), so it easily catches me when I scroll up without thinking about it. T_T

I reported this earlier, but it seems that they are the new standard ad for the banner. It's a shame imo

I had this ad pop up while I was on a different tab, and the guy started speaking which freaked me out a bit.
I then tabbed back and he was silent, just standing there blinking occasionally.

Edit:
I assume it must have been because I hovered over the rollover to view, but I was on a different tab when it all started up.

Yeah those require a rollover to activate, will contact our provider about the tab issue, seems really strange it would activate in a background tab.

I just got the same advert on this page and tested it. If I put the mouse where the rollover part is, then alt tab to a different program straight away it will still go through since the mouse is still in the rollover spot and it doesn't detect that you have switched programs. Not that annoying tbh, I don't really mind it.

I keep getting adds pop up when i am watching streams, the canon one (TF_INT) seems to do it the most, even when i am looking at a different tab, and it really is starting to piss me off. I usually just ignore this stuff and deal with it, but it is starting to grate :/

I know it is meant to be a rollover to activate, but i swear it sometimes activates anyway, or when i am on a stream or different tab.
The world is ending what should we do about it?

I got the same thing again the other day, theres definitely something not working right with these rollover to activate ones on different tabs.

Not sure if this is considered an ad, but when I put my mouse over this guy's comment the box comes up.

I just got it for another thing too, maybe I have a virus or something.

TL isn't work safe. I keep getting "arab girls" and "asian girls" ads. I've resisted ad-blocking TL as long as possible, but its just not work safe. I understand you guys try to keep tabs on it, but it isn't working. You can't expect people to just deal with this garbage. Its extremely distasteful.
