    Promoting some youtube/tv show. I even see them sometimes despite the premium subscription.

    I get them about once a day. Living with models, omg, I'd slash my wrists.

    Hmm... You should not get them once a day unless your cookies are being destroyed. Hmmm...

    Nothing quite like being spammed with useless junk. Top method of pissing people off, the people paying premium membership must really enjoy it.

    When I'm logged in I see them very rarely so it's not a serious nuisance - when browsing the forum from my phone, ipad or another computer where I'm not logged in I see them all the time.

    But frankly I was mostly shocked at the complete irrelevance of the ads for the webmaster forums. My first thought was wtf, was DP hacked or something? I mean seriously why would anyone promote some kind of reality tv show to webmasters? Instead of selling some seo tools, services etc.

    I agree to Michael, if they were relevant for webmasters I would see a sense in it and also don't mind seeing it from time to time BUT some complete irrelevant Ads is not something one likes to see or also click

    I get them literally every single time I open the page (sometimes more than once a day).

    Cookies are enabled too.

    This is a free site and we already see a lot of ads within posts and at the top of the forum at every page load. Having videos pop-up multiple times a day is a big over the top, in reality.

    Sounds like you need to fix your cookies... something on your computer is removing them.
