Every live game I try to play on chess.com now I get EXTREMELY LOUD ADVERTISEMENTS THAT CAN'T BE MUTED!!  Completely ruins the experience and I am forced to mute the entire browser. Please fix this! Most of the time the banner ads are for Leo Vegas online casino or other gambling sites. Not a very healthy choice to sell ad space to those gambling categories either.

The site uses a third party ad provider and doesn't directly approve ads that get displayed.
