Site is very slow right now.
At that time it might be the daily backup (somewhere around 6-6:30 CET I think)
Maybe I should disable bots automatically during the backup, that would already help.

both the site and the forum are running super slow right now.
Though they have nothing in comment, they are not even on the same continent

I don't know what is going on, but both the site and the forum are running super slow right now.

I'll report them
Do someone else have issues with these?
It is strange it is always you and always the same style of issue
I don't know what could cause it on your computer though.

After several days of not getting any Discover ads, they started appearing again today.

The ads don't bother me unless they become intrusive. The problem is some of the ads that are supposed to sit in the right-side box on most pages have been popping up at the bottom of the page instead as a full-width pop-up that blocks any function on the page.

Normally those on the site do not flash either (and do not even have animations, or very subtle ones)

Ads create a bad user experience. I block them on Firefox but many people don't know how. I often see youtube comments about the ads so they actually sit through videos with constant interruption. Even on a static page they're always flashing to get attention. It's pretty rude.
antp
Are the ads so annoying though?
well except for night cub which has this strange issue, for the others the ads are supposed to be rather discreet. And it is always possible to block them for those who do not like them.

A donate button would be less annoying than ads, and might actually earn more. Just try it for a month antp.
