So I'm just leisurely scroll through eggcave, stalking the forums checking out the Trade center then I decide to start lurking sround the Travel agency so I go to the handy dandy bar at the top that says explore and click Travel Agency...
(Explore->Travel Agency = Ad~!!)

Then

BAM~!! An ad popped up, but not just any old add it was an ad in a video format like one of those videos that auto plays and you cant pause it or mute it because it is like a GIF mixed with a video. So this ad moves me to a new page, but in the url box it still has eggcave.com in it there were just a lot digits behind it. At the bottom of this new page there were two options one said Skip ad( with a number that started at 15 the counted down in parenthesis next to it.) and an option to replay the ad.

Am I the only one who has gotten this so far~??

No it's Adsense (I believe), everyone will occasionally receive this advertisement, nothing we can do about it, we'll just have to wait until the 15 seconds up.

@victorythevaporeon
When the ad popup on your screen, you don't need to close your browser, under the ad there will be a option for you to skip it, you'll just have to wait 15 seconds.
