Horrible adds in the header
-
Hi,
for our German website http://www.illustrer.de we’ve chosen the design Theme. Since June we had to take notice, that wordpress.com places ads on head.
That’s quite incredible. Not only it slashes the format by a frame of 160 x 600 px (!!!), the Ad is furthermore permanently placed and visible for all visitors. This stands against the rules of wordpress.com, which state: “At WordPress.com, we sometimes display advertisements on your blog to help pay the bills. This keeps free features free!” Sometimes, not continuously. And certainly not in a manner to spoil the whole appearance of a blog?
Some weeks ago s.c. Happiness Engineer kokkieh stated: “The team is experimenting with more ad slots and different ad placements on free sites” (https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/ads-on-the-blog-1?replies=14#post-3069763). And like User janapinkuh we also are “okay with ads, I get them most of the time at the end of my posts, and I know ads help WordPress” (https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/toujours-blog-theme-and-ads?replies=2#post-3075157).
At this point we are no longer frustrated but pissed off. Messing with more-column-designs decreases their value for each and every user. Moreover the lack of information of all kind concerning this serious item while choosing themes for a new blog, mingles with the freedom of choice in an unfair way.
No use to praise your pay-models in this case: Your’re changing the free-use-rules in existing free-deals and causing more damage than a Tornado. So stop messing around and tell straight away, if this bug will stay as a feature. We’ll draw our consequences.
Best, ms
The blog I need help with is dieausrufer.wordpress.com.
