Ads OK - NOISY AUTO-PLAY ADS not so much.

Unfortunately, there is no "Block all noisy ads" - however, if the destination URL of the ad is identified, then the individual advertiser can be blocked. With that said, you can report offending ads by posting a new thread in site support.
 
So am I doing it wrong?

Full disclosure, the single ad at the bottom doesn't bother me, I only post from mobile and never have the sound turned up... That and I never scroll all the way down.

There is no top banner ad...

I think I remember you, @HowardE the mentioning it was a "feature"...
 
Try using the default theme
 
Still there...

Probably requires clearing my cache and cookies...

That will require remembering my password... Hmmm.. Lol
 
Don't clear your cookies, that rarely fixes anything.

The issue was that I didn't put the conditional statement (If you are a supporting member, and you have "don't show ads" checked) around the ads. All set now.
 
I guess I've not seen the ads since I'm a supporter, but I thought SB used google for ads. I also thought google had a reputation for not serving up noisy flashing "garbage" ads... kind of surprised that sort of thing is popping up here.
 
I do use Google for ads. They don't offer an option to prevent ads with sound.
