Now when I rumour, on the Player's List page, the advertising shows above the rumour table.  Did someone program "always on top" ?   This is very annoying.  Is the objective to alienate the player from the advertiser because I still do not recall the advertisement just the feeling that I am terribly annoyed. 

BTW, that feeling of annoyance has no cash value to the advertiser.  Feeling Alienated has no cash value to I.O.   FTW? FTL?  Fail?

If I have to demand fix it, then the answer is Fail.

What screen resolution are you playing on?
You need at least 1024x768 to have a decent point of view in browser.

It's possible, but probably fault is resolution. I.O Don't annoys us with following commercials.

Sorry.  My BAD for using cheap equipment and playing for free...    *hahaha*  Glad I do not have a low self-opinion.  *tired*  The problem is what it is for a fact, and it is not a problem on my end: monitor resolution or playing for free.  It is a hard coding problem. 

FAIL.   *bravo*

I can kill the skyscrapers but the bottom banners are another thing - cannot get rid of those. When I get a list of rumours on a page and the rumour popup is at the bottom of the list, the advertsing is "always on top" of the rumour.  So I open another tab and rumour.  But this is a coding problem. Work arounds do not solve.  They work around.  *tired*

but what resolution are you playing on really?
I doubt that your display and PC can't hold 1024x768 pixels.

I seriously doubt it too.  The fix is not on my side. Older ads do not have this hard coding problem.  Just the new ones. My resolution stays the same viewing the old advertising and the new annoying ads. I do not need a BSc to "get it." The fix is not on my side.

if you click on darker grey pay part of rumours you can drag it away from ads so then you can see rumors ok. I know its a pain in ass but hope it helps.
