Advertisements

This discussion leads to the question of who owns the site. There is an old internet meme that if you aren’t paying to use the product it because you are the product. Privacy? what me worry?
 
I have no problem with ads on the site.The owners do have to pay the bills for this site,that we all like.
The concern is the security of the ad. Don't want to be hacked into.

Last evening with an android tablet and chrome browser I logged out of WTW to check out this complaint. There were pop up and banner ads. I logged back in and the ads were gone. This is another confirmation.

This has now changed. Ads all over when I use Chrome browser - and logged in as ski3pin - on our android tablet. I realize the owners' need to make money. Firefox's adblocker on the desktop eliminates them all and enables easy reading of posts. Perhaps I will switch to Firefox browser on the tablet and not use Chrome.
 
Ads display for those not logged in and are served up by a third party (like google). The display is still being adjusted, so you may see some changes. For now, please login - you'll see the same old view. :)
 
Here's what you should see:

If you are logged in you should see two ads in the right sidebar

If you are an RV LIFE Pro subscriber (Trip Wizard / RV LIFE Pro mobile) you will see no ads.

If you are not logged in (guest) you will see ads on the sidebar, bottom of the page and maybe even some video ads floating around. Please log in or register an account - it's FREE.
 
thx for the info on ads. I have no problem with the ads along the rh margin. am pretty good at ignoring.

Any idea why I do NOT see the ads? Seems strange, and I like investigating strange...

You have an RV LIFE Pro Subscription. The badge may not be appearing on your account but if you logout and in again, It may ;)
 
The adds on the top right cover the 'quote message' button with no way to close or move the message box.
So I have no way to quote another's message.

Can you post a screen shot of that? Even where there are ads, they should not obscure site function. We might be able to make an adjustment.

Well, ads have started for me & I am always logged in when browsing WTW.
On my iPad Pro, 10.5” IOS 17.7, Safari current version, I now see 3 ads on the right side of the WTW content.
I logged out of WTW, closed all tabs in Safari, closed Safari, powered down my iPad. Waited 10 minutes, powered up, opened Safari went to WTW, logged in and more ads.
Repeated several times with same results.

I am signed in, on Safari, and the entire right side of the screen is filled with a rotating group of ads. Some of them are in the way when I try to use the "search" bar. Usually I find there are less ads on Safari than on Chrome.
