I was experiencing similar issues and it became massively irritating especially when trying to read posts and download files. A pop-up video featuring a bunch of goons posing around with a ludicrous theme being played, would pop up once every 5 mins - leaving two options - put up or close the page. I think it was advertising Cheshire Oak's designer outlet near Chester (not bad for the occasional discounted designer wear - I might add). Unfortunately I didn't take any screen shots. However after downloading an ad blocker - the rest is history. Trouble is - this site depends on advertising revenue so I dont want to cause any concerns there, but what I would say is that if you do use an ad style blocker, then maybe as a goodwill gesture, a donation be made to this site to show appreciation for the efforts and dedication to all those involved.
