oh come on! You can’t possibly be complaining that you have to spend a millisecond or two clicking the ‘x’ on the advertisement before reading threads or news. If you were in that much of a hurry you wouldn’t be on this site which is more ‘down time’ related. If the pop ups came as you opened your cell phone to dial your doctor, then you would have better cause for complaint.
Patience is a virtue.
So there.
