New WOR Plus advert banner

[Steven B]

With Firefox's Privacy/tracking protection set to "Standard" I get an advert in the blank space on the home & Unread Since last visit pages. On other pages I just the blank space on any other pages/threads (such as this one).

 

Switching to "Strict" (my default setting) then the advert disappears from the home/unread page but the empty space remains.

 

I can understand the blank space being there if an advert has been removed, but if there are no ads on the actual forum thread pages once I'm logged in then I'd expect the space reserved for them to go too.

It ought to be pointed out that investing a whole £1 per week in Gold membership means all this stuff magically disappears.... I appreciate not everyone has unlimited funds, but some of those who aren't Gold members clearly afford some impressive purchases. 

 

And you get all sorts of other goodies that I have never even investigated.

The banner has been replaced by a new format which remains prominent without negatively affecting functionality. Thanks for taking into account the comments by users and working to address them.

I've turned off Adblocker, Privacy Badger & uBlock origin.

I've also tinkered with some security settings in Kaspersky and Changed Firefox to Standard security.

It's made not a tapper of difference to what I see and don't see.

 

(I do see the new shrunken banner though!)
