Don't know if it's supposed to happen or not...

It was an ad for Netflix, it appeared as soon as I logged on the board.

Anyways, I'm sure it's not on my end because it's only occured on this site so far.

The same exact thing happened to me too. And then after that, the ads started to appear at the bottom of each page of these forums.

I just got the Netflix ad too. It was blocked by Firefox and then got through on its second attempt...

you don't have to be logged in, you get a pop up for coming to bulbapedia and another for clicking the link to these forums...

I get a pop up as soon as I come to Bulbagarden. Some 'Zwinky' crap.

That isn't the question--ads aren't supposed to happen for logged-in users. If you were logged in and they popped, that's bad. If not...that's a different story.

The one time I saw it, yes. I have not seen it since.

i don't get them when i log in. you could log in fast and not notice the pop up from visiting the forums earlier which may seem like you got it when you were logged in.

If you're logged in and ads are popping up, it isn't coming from our site. That much I can say.
