Yep here's an example of three

@woeful charm I think you need to guard your ad slots
never have I ever seen Ad's THAT LARGE
have you restarted your client perhaps?
also supporter has an ad block choice if I remember
if youre using desktop, you can head to config to disable ads
no supporter required
Portuguese detected
yes
WAIT
@fluid vessel are you the guy that snatched #1 from me?
Used to be #1 a few years back
may be
bro what i cant even play zen
just got spiked by the ads aint seeing nothing
btw this is on browser
lol
Ingame ads are being duplicated and extended upwards, covering the board
HOLY S*** WHAT THE F???????
Thanks to the people who are currently supporting the game (such as myself)
What
Stacked ads instead of blocks ☠️
guys get an adblocker
i know it doesnt solve the issue
but its a temporary fix
fixes lag too
(in my experience anyway)
and ofc there's just toggling them off on the desktop client
but i still don't know if this happens on desktop to begin with
Its not a bug its a feature
Adds an extra challenge to the game
"Can you remember your placements when 7 ads are blocking the screen? Find out now!"
osu!lazer mechanic no way
its gonna be down to muscle memory guys
remember where the pieces go just by your hands 
nonironically cool april fools idea
like have fake ads
just periodically block the bottom half of your screen
"Click here for free T-Bucks!"

osk is just milking this guy for days
well considering it's all the very same ad i doubt it counts as multiple impressions
invisible mode 
+7 ads
wow, the new revenue
yea, that is weird
osk moment
Try active this in your tetrio desktop (zaptor video)
tldr (as if it wasnt self explanatory already) main menu -> config -> tetrio desktop -> enable "disable third party advertisements"
Just for the sake of reporting and sample size, it happened to me too here.

But yeah, I have a life outside of tetr.io ya know
Why don’t you try it @wise stirrup
i have an adblocker
then temporarily disable it
oh yes just happend to me today
new ad spawns in the middle, blocking the board.
I don't have the problem.
I also don't have the problem..
reported still happening from https://discord.com/channels/673303546107658242/1153494817335160862
i mean there was this one
Ingame ads are being repeated and extended, covering the board
they said ads were showing up in TL even with desktop client
that isn't intended right
which makes that issue report especially weird
yeah i'm unprepared to defintively comment on that
i mean there is what osk said here: #1152485153730465834 message
i know
hm idk then
#lobby message
another guy has issue
also on desktop client
it doesn’t cover gameplay but their board size is like 60% or something so
i havent really seen duplicating ads anymore
That is wacky
yeah i get this all the time i hate it
hard to see chat
Another issue report by @vocal holly (#1178023280590979162 ) 
ad issues have been reported a decent bit recently
i’ve had to disable ads from desktop because i repeatedly got this ad that would border the whole screen and render every screen element unclickable for some reason
i don’t have recordings of this but ads seem to have been buggy or overzealous in what they do in general
occasionally, but often enough for me to do this
i regret trying to close the ad
i had the same issue, however, this ad wrapped around the window, blocking a decent portion of the playing area
(#tetrio·general message)
i just lost bc of this so annoying
You can turn off ads in the client
Or use adblocker on your website
Please osk april fools 2025 fake ads covering the screen in quickplay that you have to click closed

Here are some suggestions to fix this: use Adblock, become supporter or download the client and turn off the ads in settings for free.
(Thanks to supporter users, desktop users get no ads, free!)
p2w
I'm noticing that even with ads disabled, the screen often gets bars on the top and bottom that block UI elements, including buttons for spectating games and exiting out of a room.
Is this with Adblock or with turning it off ingame in the client?
Turning it off in-game
Do you use tetrio+?
It doesn't happen very often, but it seems like in some cases it still tries to display ads and just puts up blank boxes.
No, just the main desktop client.
Huh strange
It might be worth making a new issue report with screenshot and details about this
Will do, when it happens again.
I haven't seen it do it today, but it did for a while last night after I turned the ads off.
yeah i've genuinely never heard of the game letterboxing itself
we're switching ad backends soon so gonna hope that improves things
#1242273366728118294 (0 messages) was moved here.
it's always the damn discover ad for me
also sometimes the same ad will cause the game to go out of focus and when i click back it won't refocus
ohh it's a combination of another bug where i HAVE to send a blank message in chat to refocus the game
...how old is this thread
so just turn off the ads for free in the client, use adblock on browser or buy supporter 
Can’t you get an adblocker on Google store?
For free
if you got a crummy old PC you own you can connect it to your wifi and use that as the adblocker

I'm bored and I have nothing to do with my life, so I decided to create this for fun [also, small delay because im bad at editing :((( ]
And this
at least you can still see the queue
how tf do you play without seeing the queue? turn on hear next piece???
this is not an issue of stacking ads, but is this ad placement intentional or a temporary fix?
in multiplayer the banner ads appear right next to the two boards making it distracting having moving pictures constantly right next to your area of focus
but uh... at least you can see the boards?
we're experimenting with new placements that have less impact on the actual gameplay, this placement allows the game to not need to be resized down & stay further away from your board in general
can agree w/ the distraction tho, will note
okay but that would actually be pretty funny

Incorrectly placed / duplicated banner ads cover the UI
just going to make this a general thread for ad issues bc they're all kinda related

Why are ads allowed to do this
ask the companies designing these shit ads
and money is easy

guys
lol
god what the
;~;
can your computer run desktop fine
i mean what's weird is even the chat isn't in the right place
thank u i think i can fix it using ur suggestions .. but i lost over 3000 TR 🫠
yeah it’s a struggle to get that much back
i think i must retire my tetris career
tbh fixing issues and spending more time is always worth it
average vincehd gameplay session
I once lost 4000k tr
4000k
there was another one where the upper left 4x8 was blocked off by a running ad (couldn't get a snip), it also kept lagging my pc pretty bad, but that's another issue
OH HELL YEAH CAPYBARA CLICKER 2

is there anything such as tr refunding
recently just suffered with this...
💀 stupid ad covered my entire board when default viewport
noep
😭
the ads are getting more intrusive and actually making the game unplayable
i would be fine with this, i just can't see what im holding

my whole screen
THEY FUCKING HATE US
The ad size can't be limited?
hoping to god this gets fixed (together with the related out of focus thing) because this has to be by far the worst bug for players in the game rn
yeah osk really ought to reinstate that bad ad detection thing or cut them off entirely, i know he was with a troubled ad provider and i can't imagine if they're still using it that this is worth it
this is a problem with every single ad stack ive been using lol
this ad stack's different from EG's, they changed from their own stack to Playwire's
which fixed some issues and created others
but ads just randomly taking over pages or being laggy or breaking focus is not new and a thing with every single ad provider sadly
i can bring these things up with them ofc, but the real solution is either supporter sales increase by +300%, or i add other monetization, and i can consider dropping ads
it is not economically possible by a LONG shot right now to drop ads
if i reasonably could i would, ads ruin any UI and im a ui design nut
but im already operating at a loss right now 
(not in any financial trouble or anything, just spending a lot on cool things, youll see)
(but i would be if i dropped ads, you see)
didn't you have some naughty ad mitigation they asked you to remove early on?
chrome ad blocker

Got an ad covering content in League, tf. Are they ever gonna fix this?
Why don’t you fix it yourself, with an adblocker or by using the client? They’re aware of the issue so it will be fixed when it’s fixed
guys i lost 2k tr because of ads 😭
cant u guys like add like smth that limits the size or where it should be placed?
idk anything
just reminding yall of the atrocity that was my game play session
this reminds me, what are the legal ramifications of these ads in certain jurisdictions
for us it's jail
I dont know too much about the specifics but
at least a website ban
Inspect element then delete the whole ad like me
GUYS S 1 ENDED AND NOW IM PLAYING TOWER AND THERES ADS THAT PURPOSELY COVER THE HOLD SPACE
ad blocked my hold
INVISIBLE HOLD mod real

Loll
Same here’s another one when in DUO mode in quick play
Blocks the hold piece when you play so you can’t see
Is it related to the stacking ads bug?
no game
