This is a great forum, - but recently I notice that the text thread bounces up and down as I read it.
I see that this is due to the sponsors advert changing, - and occasionally dissapearing, - so the text jumps up or down as the sponsors banner appears and goes away. This is not good, - of you don't have enough advertisers in the scrolling list, - could you substitute a blank box of the same pixel dimension so the text stays still ?
I use Chrome.

Not a forum problem I'm afraid, I run Chrome myself and no ads have been changed in a while now. I know AdBlock has been known to cause this problem in the past.
