Don't see anything Sandi.

I have not personally found the site unusable with ads. Annoying? Yes. But not unusable. I mean, I’ve posted plenty on here on both on my phone and my MacBook and I’ve never used an ad blocker. Sure, the ads on mobile are annoying and there are occasionally times when it has gotten glitchy on my laptop, but it was never so much that I just said the heck with it.

I use an iPad and it had gotten really bad. I was unable to type responses and the constant reloading was ridiculous. In fact this site is the only reason I got an ad blocker.

Like I said, I understand the need for ads but I’m not going to use a site that causes me so much frustration to use. And I won’t be paying for the privilege of not seeing them, sorry.

Well, I’m at a loss. I’ll reach out to tech! Lol

I’m thinking about it. The price is high, but the community is priceless.

Yes, I'm having a problem with the price, because another of my favorite sites is only $15 a year.

Hate to say it but I’m out of here then. I get the need for ads but having so many that the site is barely functional on a mobile device is ridiculous.

Yep, I'm having the same problems. It's fine on my Win 11 desktop, difficult on my iPad, nearly unusable on my iPhone.

Same here. I'm still not sure, especially since I found out DH pays $15 a month for premium access to his college sports site. But my ad blocker only costs $40 a year, and there's another of my usual sites that needs it too.

$15-20/year would have been a nice starting point.

Maybe there'll be a new perk with MMB: Included add-free experience on the DISboards!

It's pretty good for me on a laptop. Not so much on phone.

$50/year is not a lot of money, but that erases $1000 of 5% DGC discounts

If you're not coming out ahead, you aren't doing your Disney math right!

For example, thanks to this board, I found out about the option to waive title insurance when buying direct.

That savings alone (on two direct contracts) can fuel several years+ of ad-free usage for me.

See how Disney math works?

This board has cost me well over $200K. Haven't saved a dime

Crazy how both statements can both be so true at the same time.

They may both be true, but my spending outweighs her savings by a smidge.
