Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Ads with sound?!?

Just had my first instance of an autoplaying ad with sound. It's very offensive, I hope this isn't the shape of things to come...

I asked Fetch about this and he said he has no control over the ads - but would like to know which are the ones causing the prob

I've only had it once recently, and that was on the home page in the "bottom right" ad area...

Yep, same here. Only once and it was a bottom right nearly square one. I'll take notes next time!

right, got one just now
bottom right
"anyclip" "Jump into Northern Ireland" ad
there's even a "mute" symbol which is greyed out (i.e. doesn't do anything if you try pressing it)
repeats ad infinitum...

Got something to say?
