Ok, here's a couple examples:

Maybe torch will switch back to braid on account I this thread since braid cuts through floaters better. Bet he ain't thought of that benefit.

See "parking" and "back". When I put my curser on "bait shop" (double underlined) a "QuickLink" box opens, it's a google ad.

Just not seeing that on my end major

Wow, that's the first I've seen that. Maybe a setting on your device is out of wack. Try a reboot.

Not doing it on my phone either, it must be a bug in my PC.

Those are ads, something called skimlinks. I try to take advantage of all those lurkers that may be searching our older threads. On day old threads only, I allow skimlinks ads to appear on words.

If you've noticed, if you are not a member, or are not logged in, you get a lot of ads. And if you are logged in, you get lots less ads. And old threads get these skimlinks ads. I'm just trying to keep the site going, and make a bit of a living. Thanks all.

Why doesn't it show the same thing on my phone as it does on my PC?

No ads show up on your phone.

I have never seen them on my computer or my phone

They only started showing up on my PC just before I started this thread. I had uninstalled and reinstalled Norton Security Suite because of a bug.
