I know there are subscriptions available, and this is not a complaint from me, but sometimes the ads here are mega-intrusive, to the point that you wonder how many people see something like this, and just click the back button...

I still see ads on the Stories page, and that’s fair enough. However, the ads are so bonkers that I’ve stopped bothering with the stories. I’ve had ad videos 3/4 the size of the page pop up, and then that ad video gets partially covered by another ad video. Viewing on a 9th gen iPad

Edit: not complaining, just sayin’

That looks like some kind of bug, we’ll check it out with our agency for sure

So we currently don’t have the ability to apply one to the other but we should after the major update to the forum software which gives us central authentication for both, it’s one of the things we are going to implement when available

Might be browser specific.....haven't had any ad popups on the Stories section, using Microsoft Edge on a desktop and a Kindle tablet. Working fine.

After a botched eBay transaction, I used the pay pal refund to purchase a one year subscription.

The seller never shipped the part which got refunded. The second item arrived and was the wrong part. Instead of bothering with a return on that I decided to walk away and use the refund to better effect here. If the seller wants the wrong part back, they can take it up with eBay which already closed out the case.

(actually I bought the part from another seller last week, but was thinking of getting a spare.)

Not a huge complaint but it would be nice if the Subscription applied to the Omega Stories portion of the website.

The stories have ads with a sub? I've never seen that.

We do want to apply it to that too, there’s a shared login functionality coming on the next version of the site which should let us implement that so hopefully not too far off. Some additional features for subscribers are coming too, especially Tier 2.

Perhaps the new free version could have flashing banners and 12 pop-up windows all with very loud audio that you can’t figure out how to turn off without closing the whole tab- but just for the first 15 seconds. Would cut down on a lot of drive-by valuations.

Awesome! Thanks for the update. The content on this site is first rate and I really appreciate the work you and the other moderators put into the site.

We've just implemented ad-free (for tier members) on the new version of OF, then ported the same changes back to the one we're on now. Stories should now behave as expected 👍
