Ads inside of threads are too intrusive.

The X to close the ad is in the far right and not the one in the right corner of the ad.

That's not the one that I posted
The one that I posted is a second banner ad underneath
It just popped up again. Here you can see two layers of banner ads; the gray box over top, and the black banner under it

Appreciate you looking into stuff @BigRedMax
Not a huge deal, but on mobile if I am on HB and listening to Pandora, Shazaam, or a Music playlist on my phone, there are ads that shut down those running apps.
Not like getting muted, but actually shutting them down to play the spoken word ads on HB. It's happening last two weeks. Frustrating.
A separate issue, from desktop, sometimes an ad (at the bottom) will stop me in the middle of typing a reply for the ad to play first.
I don't know which ads because I just roll with it. But whatever ads that do that, it's pretty crummy. Wondering if others run across this?

Was reading a thread and a new post was made, went to click the "Show New Post" pop-up but got the double layer banner. Closed the gray one, but this one wouldn't close

@BigRedMax I think there's a deceptive footer ad position that keeps deploying the entire width of the screen but the ad itself only takes up a small portion of it. Image attached. The 'X' to close the ad is all the way off to the right just below the schedule but as you can see the ad itself is tiny.
This is causing some issues with the footer notifications and moderator tools e.g. I tried to select and move a post the other day but couldn't figure out why the the pop up admin tools that appear at the bottom of the board weren't clickable. It wasn't until several minutes later that I noticed the small X off to the side. So it's almost as if the position is firing sometimes without an ad. The same applied to a thread I was reading. A notification at the bottom of the page showed that there was a new reply. I tried to click it but it wouldn't work until I hit the small 'X' off to the side.
