Auto-starting LOUD audio ads that can't be stopped

[solly119]

I posted about this in the tech help forum but maybe that was the wrong place. The attachment is an ad I've gotten a few times over the
last couple weeks that's at the bottom of a page and starts auto, and, cannot be stopped. Not only that, but it's SO LOUD it actually jump
scares me when the audio starts.

I want to encourage the admins to discontinue this kind of ad. We all know they're necessary, but I think it crosses a line when it forces users
to do something they otherwise wouldn't do (such as mute their speakers).

It’s not something we enable, it slips through the third party systems and occasionally we need to go and give it a kick.

Our control over specific ads is non-existent, so irritating ones like this occasionally work their way in.

@admin for vis, and any clarity.

Ok, thanks for the reply. And it's been about 10 days since I got one of them, so suppose I can live it.

Normally they’re caught, but we’re quite dependent on the ad hosting to find it.
