Why I don't like this forum

[enginerev]

Guys: please don't shoot me down.
My comments are meant to be constructive criticism.

You guys have over commercialised.
There are ads EVERYWHERE.
The navigation is so unintuitive.
Just logging in seems to be a mission - one click too many.

Hope I haven't upset anyone.

I have recently started contributing to this forum, I originally used the Lenovo G5 forum, I would say that this forum is far superior to the Lenovo forum, it's run by knowledgeable folk and moderators who take the job seriously. Just ignor the adds, it's better than children posting stupid comments unchecked by the moderators, which is what was happening on the Lenovo forum.
You will never find a forum that suits your every need, but this is one of the best in my opinion. I wish you well if you can find better.

I don't know why logging in is a chore. I'm usally logged in as soon as I open the site or the app.

Ads are a common complaint here, so you're not alone. My suggestion is to use the AC Forums app on your phone, as it's ad free with a more simplistic design. It works well for me.

I use tapatalk to log in and have no ads other than 1 or 2 in the thread.

Welcome to the forums. I always click the checkbox to leave me signed in. And then I use the AC Forums app for mobile. Only need to sign in once and that's it.

As for ads....yeah. Ads aren't fun, and you're going to see them every where. Sometimes I honestly wish advertising agencies would realize that most people are so desensitized to ads that flooding more in doesn't guarantee a click.

Agreed. The interface is really bad here. It is also extremely slow in responsiveness.

What pc and browser? Apple and Safari? If so, could be a conspiracy

Ads... The saga continues! I agree with Golfdriver. Ad agencies should realize that this plethora of advertising is actually having the opposite effect on the general public!

To be honest, though, I just skim over the ads. I'm just used to seeing them everywhere.

As for logging in, I use the AC app so I'm always signed in; and it's always easy for me to find threads that I'm following or interested in. Every forum site has its pros and cons though, and each take time to grow accustomed to.

Thanks to all the ads everywhere online, I now try to punch every "X" I see out of habit from dismissing them.
