This ad is asinine
This is one of the most ignorantly intrusive ad campaigns I've ever seen. I work in advertising and marketing and I've seen some dooseys over the years. There is absolutely no reason that you should have the ad frequency set to every page change on the site while using a mobile platform. This ad should be set to pop up on the first page change of each day for each user act. then drop off and not show again. It would be a lot more effective to pop up once, then scroll in a banner on top or the side of the page. With a good majority of people accessing the internet/RC Tech by way of some form of mobile device, especially the younger demographic, this is pissing off a lot of people. 95% of the general public will not complain about intrusive or offensive ads, they deal with it and try to ignore them. 4.5% will not know where to complain, so they don't. One half of one percent is industry standard for complaints of this type of intrusive media advertising.
EVERYTIME you change pages within RC Tech, the ad pops up, not sometimes or every fifth page chage, every time, which is completely unnecessary. It's not A-Mains fault though, I'm sure they would understand the frustration if they accessed the site on a mobile device. If they have any business acumen at all they would demand it be changed immediately. The webmaster for RC Tech could change the ad frequency in less than 5 minutes to an acceptable rate.

Jesus.... I don't run ******* on pages that I like to support. I will be turning it on for this site now. Great job. Even if it was a mistake, they're are already 3 ads per page, we needed another one right in my face?
Haha wow, they censor the word @dbl0ck

However, it appears that the problem has been addressed, it has only come up once since I logged in 20 minutes ago. I'm glad they heeded the complaints and resolved the issue.
Good work RCTech!

That's the way an effective ad campaign of this type should work. I was logged in from 6ish until I wrote post #17 at 7:17, and every page change brought another ad. It didn't matter where you were navigating from or to, every time the page refreshed or changed, BAM. I had to leave the site until post #18 at 8ish because I couldn't take it any longer.

I'd rather have the silly ad pop up then be redirected to an app. I've had days when I coukdnt even view site without be redirected.
