1. Ads on tablet and phone

   I haven't paid for the lifetime subscription (yet), so I understand that ads are part of the deal, to keep the board running. I have no issue at all with the ads that appear at the top of the page or ones that appear between posts. That said, I am becoming increasingly aggravated with the ones that appear at the bottom of the page and block about a quarter of the screen on my tablet and phone. They don't move, so I can't scroll last them. If I close them, as soon as I change pages, they are back. I assume that others are having the same experience.

4. Its time to change my username since Scioscia is stepping down.

   Ok so Its time to change my username since Scioscia is stepping down. I request my named by changed to Pujols4MVP - as a way to jinx him into retiring. My username history: Napoli4MVP - gets traded in one of the worst trades in team history Morales4MVP - breaks his leg celebrating a HR & misses over a year of playing time. Scioscia4MVP - steps down within a few years. So with Pujols4MVP we can expect Pujols days on the Angels to end quicker.

5. Feature Suggestion - ignored users

   @Chuckster70 this is probably a function of the forum software, but I thought it worth mentioning. When you put someone on ignore it would be great if posts that quoted and replied to the ignored person we're also muted.

9. Go AngelsWin.com Premium (ads free)

   All, due to the cost of running AngelsWin.com there will be an influx of ads populating across the forum here over the next couple days on both desktop & mobile devices in hopes of creating more revenue to not only keep things afloat, but begin to pay for other services that will benefit our entire experience here. If you're not already a contributor or paid member you can learn more about going ad-free here: Heads up: To those of you who have had mobile redirects in the past, they're long gone now as we found the root of the problem. It was stemming from the Stanza Angels calendar plugin. I have removed it, but that calendar ad was averaging $95 a month i…

13. The popup ads

    I have no issue being exposed to ads on sites. I want the sites I like to be able to monetize the traffic. But execution is key and the frequency and Size of the popup on my phone is obnoxious and annoying. Advertising should never, ever be annoying. It's about exposure without annoying.

16. Downvoting

    I don't like it. It gives people a reason to be passive aggressive without actually responding to a post. It's basically like the "Gold Star" days of the OMB. For example, I just got a post downvoted by a guy I thought was banned (heRo). Others may like it and that's fine. I certainly won't be using it. I'd rather just tell someone their post sucks. Just my opinion. The other ones are fine, though I do see the "troll" one get used a bit much.

20. OK guys....

    I've been getting several complaints from mostly iPhone & iPad users that you've been pop-ups and redirects as a result of ads that I have been running. Ads that I run to make money to pay for this website. I have taken ALL of the ads down in hopes of implementing one ad code at a time in hopes of finding which one is causing the pop-ups and redirects. For those who have paid for an ad-free service, thank you. For those who haven't, I need your input. Tomorrow or Wednesday I will start introducing once ad at a time and I will not introduce another ad until it's clear that the previous one is not the problem. So... enjoy an entire ad free, pop-up free, …

22. Is it just me or is this site completely unusable on mobile?

    So i basically can't use this forum on my phone. It's pathetically slow and freezes constantly (took me 5 whole minutes just to type the thread title). I have a Samsung Android. It's not a good phone, but I have zero issues on any other website, including YouTube and 2 other forums. This is the only one. It started a few months ago, and then there was some kind of site update and it worked fine for a while, but now it's unusable. It could just be my phone, but like I said this is the ONLY website I have this issue with. Any tips other than stop going on porn?

    Chuck, I think you should consider switching to a white background with just the red headers. The grey on red is hard to read.

27. Log on required repeatedly

    This last week I've had to log on every time I access the site using a different wifi or switch to mobile access. At work I log on using their wifi then if I go to lunch and change internet access I have to log on again. Then the same at home. It's annoying when previously my account stayed online regardless of what internet portal I was using. Any fix available?

31. My Email Inbox is flooded with notifications and I can't seem to stop it

    I was stunned to see about 50 notifications in my inbox (never had them before today). I disabled ALL notifications in my Settings and they're still coming in. This will be a major problem with my phone, as there is very little storage remaining on it, not to mention a headache on my desktop as I have to delete each one. What the hell is going on?! edit: Chuck responded and told me I probably subscribed to a thread by accident. Problem seems to be resolved. Thanks, Chuck!
