Screen jumps around

[alittlesandy]

When I'm in this forum the screen jumps around while I'm trying to read or write posts. In other words, the post window will randomly jump up or down, changing the position of the text on the screen. Not sure if it's the ads changing or how the forum refreshes but it's very annoying. This doesn't happen in any other forum that I'm in.

What ad displays in this forum for you that doesn't in others? I can look into it for you but I need something more specific.

There is no ad that displays for me here that doesn't display in other forums. What I mean is that when I'm in MDC forums, the screen jumps around while I'm trying to read posts. Whereas when I'm on another site altogether (teaching or cloth diapering forums, for example, not MDC) that doesn't happen.

I've seen that, too. It's on ads with transitions located in the right sidebar. It looks like the space the ad uses in the page is changing size with the changes of the ad itself. Since the thread space is wrapped around the ad space on the page, when the ad takes up more room, posts get shifted downwards, then back upwards when the ad takes up less space. Makes reading the thread quite frustrating!

I haven't seen it in a while. If I see it again I'll see if I can record it.
