Pita I know, but isn’t this where Dan said to use an advert pop up blocker? Check your browser settings, think you can also turn them off, however may affect other websites using pop ups.
Sorry John. Was jokes. I was amazed that such a membership would be contemplated by the owners of the site. As you correctly observe, the contributors to this site are already writing best quality content for the business owner free of charge. To be battered with ads and then be asked to pay to make the ads go away is remarkable. Eventually the owners will suffer diminishing returns. Hopefully they will tone the ads down before it kills the site. Who knows
