Full Page Pop-up ad's now?

Twice now in the last 5 minutes I have received a full page mario/nintendo ad that took up most of the screen.  Is this coming from your site?  Are you folks doing full-page popups now for ads?

    Same here just happened twice Mario maker. I have no problem with this site using adds and i will never use an ad blocker ( get the sub based member ship up already) but the pop ups  are silly and annoying a little over the top.

    We're looking into getting this sorted right now. No we aren't intending on running ads like this.

    I had it attempt to come up when I click on a message in the globe.  Sorry, it was more of a redirect.

    Where do these ad's come from because if its like Google AD's rarely but it happens they can contain re-directs and viruses );, its why I use Ublock Origin blocks everything... Like I can see the AD banners on the background but they wont be clickable or anything.

    I don't use an AD Blocker, but I do have a Pop-up Blocker, I suggest you use that.
    I am using Firefox, there is an option to block only Pop-ups.

    Haven't seen an ad yet, must be superior technology.
