I have been noticing lately, that ads have been appearing on my mobile site. Not sure, but aren't those suppose to disappear for a paid supporter of the site? If not, I guess I will deal with it. I am just a little curious.

I am seeing the same. Kind of aggravating, but I'm just "dealing with it", also.

My guess is it's because you are using a free app to view the mobile site. If you switched back to viewing without the app maybe it would go away?

I believe you are correct.

I don't recall the ads when using the "full version".

It really isn't an app so much as the mobile device is using the mobile site. If that makes any sense.

That isn't it. I can deal with it, it just seems curious that it shows on my mobile login and not the main one.

I don't use the mobile site with my IPhone. I use the regular site for years now with my phone and have no problems. Everything I do on this site is on my IPhone. I hate the mobile site.

I know that the mobile site doesn't show a lot of the miscellaneous items, but it has served me well. I just didn't realize the advertisements were going to show up is all. This appears to have been something that has happened recently. I will go to the full site and see if that corrects the issue.
