    Happening with me, end up hitting the same thread multiple times.

    Getting tedious now

    I'm in the same boat as others, ads causing the page contents to move when I'm clicking a link and I end up visiting the advert.

    Could you take a video of this happening? I browse using my phone all the time and can honestly say this has never happened. The ads are usually fully loaded by the time I’ve scrolled down.

    I wouldn't know where to start with a video but can say the problem is the ads loading which can take 6+ seconds and when they appear all the content moves down a considerable way. I know the easiest thing to do is wait 6 seconds but that negatively impacts my enjoyment of the site. It's like having an old dial-up connection.

    Can honestly say it takes nowhere near 6 seconds on my phone or tablet, more like 2 seconds at most. Are you browsing by phone?

    Thanks.

    I'm browsing on a lap top and mentioned 6 seconds as I counted the delay on four occasions and it varied between 5 and 8 seconds to load.

    Laptop takes a bit longer to load ads, depending on your specs. Unfortunately there’s not much that can be done on my side to speed that up.

    Sorry I'm a bit late with this but I had the exact same issue and hopefully you can actually see this, I use a PC too but with the Firefox Browser, you need to disable adblock on TC and in firefox you have to also disable the advanced tracking protection shield. It now works fine for me and gets rid of that * annoying pop up that will not go away, when you want to browse elsewhere just turn the advanced tracking protection back on.
    Sorry it's late but I hope it helps you.

    Cheers mate, I fixed it after that, turns out it was my anti-virus blocking banners.
