Yep- I’ve been getting them too. Poor design and annoying. Difficult to close. These are not the kinds of ads you would expect from Pelican. It feels scammy.

There is thread on this on OT and Wayne says it’s a Google issue and they are working on it.

I have had ZERO issues with the Pelican Forum and I am on this site 10 times a day.

I've had a bunch of problems with the pop up ads when using in chrome on my Android, none on the laptop. Hope they get it figured out...

I get on my iPhone and 10.2 inch iPad but not my 12.9 inch iPad and they all run effectively the same OS.
