    Watch Talk link temperamental?

    Hi, for some reason, be it on my iPad or laptop the 'Watch talk' link on the main forums menu does not always work?
    It sort of underlines (active link when hovered over) but then doesn't so if you don't click on it fast it becomes inactive as a link and you have to faff about to refresh and try to catch it.
    I have even had to use the links on the hot topics section to the right hand side to access watch talk sometimes.
    The other links i.e Sales corner or others seem to be ok.
    Does this make any sense and...why?

    I'm struggling with the forum on MacBook / Chrome today.

    This has been going on for nearly a week. I can only get into watch talk either through the new posts tabs at the top or if someone has recently posted, click on their post and when it opens click on WT in the link at the top of their post - which is all a big PITA.

    I've had a big blank ad across the bottom of my screen for months and now an ad appears on the lower right hand side that details what people have posted. Clearly the presentation of this site has been infected by someone or something.

    If any tech guys know how to cleanse all this crap - do tell

    Thankfully due to your OP I have been able to access "watch talk" easier today, but as to why it's playing up I'm at a loss.

    Cheers.

    Unfortunately, I think it’s the advertising banners that are causing this. They are getting quite obtrusive, including pretending to be sales threads for watches now!

    It's a Ad script that interferes with top links. Jup, it's a problem on any browser and on any platform.

    I've had the same issue on my ipad, refreshing the page usually helps.
