I figured out how to deal with the ads that are just gifs but hide your cursor to make them harder to close/easier to accidentally click on. And it is the ancient magic of pressing the right mouse button.

[Iceblaster]

Oh joy.

However I have no problem with ads because

I love taunting you guys with my insistence in not hating ads hehe

there aren't any ads that hide your cursor
they all go away if you just wait and you can click on other windows in the meantime

Well, I GUESS I JUST MADE THAT UP, RIGHT? I keep getting WoT adverts and they DO hide my cursor.

Bubbles is the king of rhymes, he plays on Urist McStation all the times.

I keep getting adverts for Barbie: Pearl Princess.

I have no idea what it thinks I've been clicking on recently, but there's nothing that should make me the target demographic for that!

Tried alt-tabbing?

Like I said, I found a method to fix it, I thought other people had this problem as well.

I went AFK while observing a late, low-pop round. I came back to find out that I was suddenly alive, in space, outside the illicit bar, as Steel Hanzo, SPACE NINJA.
I'm positive it was a random event and I don't think I even had the preference turned on, but that didn't matter anymore. I was an elite mercenary assassin of the mighty Spider Clan, on a mission with six objectives to complete:

Objective #1: Accumulate 5 capture points. It is better if they remain relatively unharmed. Fail. (Capturing creatures is fine and dandy, except for the small detail that there is no energy net to capture them in the ninja abilities tabs.)
Objective #2: Download 20 research levels. Success! (No science staff. I researched them myself.)
Objective #3: Slay Bomrek Nussbaum, the Chief Medical Officer. Fail. (I somehow misread 'Slay' as 'Hang out with Bomrek, set up the engine together, let him operate your appendicitis and lead his braindead self safely to the pods when the shuttle comes'.)
Objective #4: Steal an advanced energy gun. Success! (No cargo staff. I had to mine the uranium myself.)
Objective #5: Stay alive until the end. Success!
Objective #6: The Spider Clan must not be linked to this operation. Remain as hidden and covert as possible. Fail. (I'm not sure how the game could detect the completion of this. There would have been no admins to toggle it, and I managed to fail it hilariously anyway in the first five minutes, as I stepped out of maintenance right as I finished reading the wiki, by walking right in front of the entirety of the crew that just so happened to be standing at the end of the escape hallway.)

Things I've learned:
- 10E means 1000 energy.
- Opening doors with the energy blade makes my inner engineer cry.
- Ninjas make for surprisingly good miners.
- Maskless ninja sprite looked rather strange, almost glitched. I should have taken some screenshots.
- Absolutely nothing happened in the captain's quarters and I shall not speak about it.

It was... interesting, to say the least. I took it as a crash course in how to use the spiderOS.

[Glloyd]

Ah, to use the ninja energy net you need to right click on the target.

Wheel of Time adverts, or am I getting that acronym wrong?  Because Wheel of Time was a freaking amazing series.

Ah.  I keep forgetting that that game is actually a thing.  You'd think I'd remember it's actually a thing since it's on Twitch and a lot of other places.  Also, thanks for clearing that up.

OOC: Nienhaus2: I don't care for X-Com.

[Aseaheru]

Better WOT than WOA.

I mean really, its kinda clear that they just stole the trailer from war thunder, moved around the bits and slapped there own name on it.

[Nienhaus]

Stuffs.
