Angry How to complain?

Sorry for posting this here but I've not been able to find anywhere on this site about how to complain about a page!

Whilst I appreciate sites like these rely heavily on the revenue they receive from the adverts they allow I think it would be at least a bit considerite to allow you to close the advert down at some point for at least move it away from the body of the article you are trying access.

The page in question is URL for me when I look at this I get the new style of Flash adverts that have started to appear. Whilst these are more annoying that the traditional popup adverts most of the time you can at least close it down or move it.

Whilst this may have been beyond the DevShed's control do they not have any controls or specifications in place to say to advertisers they must at least give the end user the ability to either close or move the advert.

See this thread. They became aware of this problem last week and have been fixing it.

Becoming aware and being notified seem to be 2 entirely different things as this had been mentioned before multiple times...

While it's good it's fixed now it wouldn't hurt to have some place to report these things more efficiently (like the extra board we had for a while during the conversions or some specific mail-address)
