Too bad, that was one of the main ways I read Ft. I've mentioned this to several friends, it is oxymoron that a web site for FF and they eliminate the app. We read it in taxis/airports wherever. And no, am not going to try a phone browser. The app was efficient and easy. And yes, am posting from my computer, but won't be either reading nor posting. :mad::mad: |

Wow....
Congratulations, I guess. You just managed to take a rather decent website that was visually appealing and trash it into something almost completely unreadable. Well done. |

these ads are now way more intrusive than ever before. I'd be happy to pay FT $1 a month or $10 a year to support you, but this is too much. Also now that the APP no longer works due to the latest update, I'll probably be on here less frequently - i hate using the mobile skin.

The website is far better than before on my Android phone.
Hate the adverts (on my pc) in the middle of / part way through threads - keep thinking I'm at the bottom of the page when there's 3/4 or so still to go. |

I don;t know what platform you are using but for Android, .......er makes a browser that seems to work pretty well. If they remove Ads, provide an App, then i'm happy to make a contribution. Until then, I'm not and i'll only use the site in a full browser |

I don't think you get my point. I'm not going to use the mobile site regardless of tools to block their ads. It's pathetic.

In the absence of such an app, I will restrict my viewing to a laptop/tablet with a full site browser session. |

Perhaps in the next iteration IB/FT could offer a paid, ad-free option. I'm sure many of us who frequent FT would happily pay - providing IB/FT with a revenue source and removing the annoyance of the new ad layout. |

Who thought it was a good idea to put ads in the middle of a thread? Not on the right nav, but actually separating each reply in a thread? Fine, serve up the ads, do it on the top, bottom and left navs. But seriously letting them divide comments up?
Cheers. |
And I also agree that the adds in the middle are extremely annoying and disruptive.
And you need to scroll much more on an I-Pad. |

Also, am part of the "faces of flyertalk" and was blessedly ad free. I am now seeing ads on mobile. Please add this to your to be fixed list.
