Links on Basil not being clickable

Is anyone having this issue. I find myself refreshing the page quite frequently because of this.

@chewkup: Believe me, I told him. He's very busy dealing with real life things so he's got to prioritize, he says.

I'm assuming it's the Toshiba thing. It was a VERY annoying ad for me. I was able to click almost all links before I installed the adblocker as soon as I 'x'ed out the ads, so that might be the reason as @DrHye said.

Same, and the other day when it finally stopped, the invisible ads pooped all over my quoted box, so I couldn't get to that either. Irritating as hell

Well I did tell him of the problem, and he's aware that ads lately are being ridiculous, but he's got a lot in real life to do first. So we just gotta wait

I'm usually on basil just to take a quick look see anything interesting and i'm off to diff sites so its little annoying when I find something interesting and can't click it so I have to refresh just getting kinda old

@d3adking I have the same stuff as you.

Someone on basil suggested that maybe the ads are still popping up, but since we can't see them, we can't "x out" of them. Meaning technically they're still up on our screen so we can't click anything.

However like I said, the problem goes away after I browse through like 7 pages on basil, so it's not that huge of a deal to me

I get that too. It's a bit annoying, but nothing too major.

Sometimes, but it usually stops after my first few minutes of browsing basil. What's your browser and do you use adblock?
