Adds on Home Page, Why?

By the way this is more than just your small little typical ad that shows off to one side or in a corner, it is a large pop-up that takes up most of my laptop screen that I have to close every time I open the site.

Well you beat me to the post. I was waiting for a few days to see if it stopped but it hasn't.

It just isn't a popup it's a full page thing. Have to click "continue to site or the X on the right side. Pain in the ass actually and don't understand why when you are logged in you have to get this as a subscriber. I already received an email on the same thing. So I understand not everyone is getting this but I only asked one other person. Don't know how long you have been receiving it but it's about 4 days for me.

Really hope someone gives us a good reason for this.

I use Adblock Plus here JC and just exclude WC in the settings which fixes the homepage issue. As far as an ad popping up, not getting that at all here. Anyone else getting the popup ad?

EDIT:  Ok, you are getting it too Dave. I was writing ahile you were posting. 

I actually have adblock disabled for the site and that is the reason I am getting the popup. I suspect that if I was to enable adblock I would not get the pop-up but then my home page is all wonky.

Dave I also have had it for 4 days.

Used to get the scrolling WC ad's on home page but not now as I put on adblock plus.

If I use adblock plus for wincustomize my home page has no images at all. I cannot see any new gallery submissions.

Junior same exact thing is happening to me. Even with Adblock.

I am quite surprised about this. I hope it is not going to be an on going thing.

Actually add block did get rid of it for me but like you it makes the entire page look messed up. So I don't want to use it.

Well, now I just got the stupid ad popup too! 

Steam? Games? WTF! 

And seriously? A Full screen ad?  I could see this on maybe the game sites, but this is WC.  Bad form, Stardock!

Not quite full page but pretty damn close.

Yeah, me too. Very irritating and I am very disappointed in WC for doing this.   

I thought NOT getting ads was partly the reason for my subscription fee?  If this keeps up, there will be no more renewals for me. It's atrocious.

Lol...Calm down, I'm sure it's just a glitch. I'm surprised nobody mention this sooner. 

I say we revolt and hang someone.  Hasn't been a hanging around here in a very long time.   

Im getting the ads too, cheap stunt Stardock, for No Ad 

Paying members .. 

I have been getting that add for couple days it is annoying

Got lots of great Hanging Trees here at

Big Bear Lake , who's got the rope ? 

I'm getting the ad too.  Ad says sale ends on the 28th

Not going to be happy if it continues past that.

Ropes ready to be mailed

I get their email and get almost nothing but game email which I don't play.  I don't mind the email as delete it once and it's gone. This pop up comes up every time you open WC. They could make a thread and pin it to the top on the left side under "Latest News" if they want to advertise on the mail forum.

Oh well enough said from me as there is nothing I can do about it.

Me too.  

I'll chime in and agree that as a paying member I don't appreciate this nonsense either.

I feel swindled !! I've been faithfully paying a subscription fee and I get betrayed as if I'm not important. I'm going to remember this when renewal time rolls around. 

Same thing here. I pay a subscription to remove ad's. Even their own. Not happy. Why not an email for paying members and the pop up for blow throughs

Ditto here too
