I did an update to IOS 14.8 - ads are still coming up
This is very odd, I'm not getting any other reports of Contribs with ads.
I've got a call out to check and see what's going on.
Could be some other folks just haven't got a rooster call this early in the morning yet.
I logged out of B&B cleared my cookies from the site and restarted my computer just to be on the safe side. Something I did worked which is lucky because my step was getting a bigger hammer. No adds since yesterday.
I know that Nick had mentioned needing to get passed a cookie from the site, maybe that is the issue for some.
iPhone is normal and seems to be totally unaffected, but iPad is just a mess.
Too bad I don’t use my phone for B&B

I had the opposite. My phone was a mess but my laptop only had 1-2 ads on at a time.

I bet you are right about cleaning cookies. Easy to do wholesale but I’m not sure how you did it based on the site alone.
I’ve deleted now all cookies and it looks good 
What browser are you using? I can take a look

Safari
Thanks
Ack! After 2012, Safari no longer supports Windows, which is what I have, so I can't load the latest version.
I did find this:

Clearing cookies did work for me with Chrome as well.
Just the normal amount now, nothing in with peoples posts.

I haven't done anything, but this time in logging in, I only have an ad at the top and at the bottom. A much better situation than last night! Thanks.
My pleasure!
I’m using Safari on an iPhone. I cleared my cookies and website data and when I came back to the site and browsed a bit, prior to logging back in, it was a much better experience, less overall ads and less intrusive ads. I logged in to my account and the ads are much more noticeable. I can deal with the ones in the thread list and forum list, the full page one that shows up every second or third thread I click on annoys me but the one at the bottom that covers the line I’m typing drives me nuts. I’ll go back to being a lurker for the next week or so and see if it’s better when I log back in
