  I have fixed the adverts problem by going to "Manage Privacy Settings" at the bottom of the screen.  Scroll down and reject ads in there.   Works for me.

  Yesterday I got a message to turn off adblocker (I use chrome) and I just clicked OK and didn't do anything - proceeded to site with no ads.  Same today - but ads appeared.  Have now changed the settings - thanks @Obelixx! and ads seem to have disappeared.

  Thanks Obelixx, I just dropped in to see if anything had changed and found this, it worked

  I said and did that yesterday but I still have ads. I hate to say this but they're really not too bad...for irrelevant tripe!

  I don't have an adblocker but I got the message so I clicked 'accept' and I still don't get ads. All the cookies are turned off so I suppose they don't know what to sell me

  It’s gone.
  
  It was a demand to accept adverts and to remove my adblocker with instructions on how to do that.
  
  There was no way past it.
  
  But it’s gone now. 🙄

  I had the same problem last week. I stopped using the forum for a few days then checked and it had gone. Back to normal now.
