Annoying pop-ups for SA "premium service"
Is it really necessary to get a pop-up asking me to subscribe to your premium service every 5-10 clicks? Beyond annoying.

Will you stop with all the pop ups
My idea is to plaese not have pop ups all the time pushing Premium SA
Is anyone else sick of the premium popup?
SA has distinguished itself again. During this time of crisis (certainly for investors), SA has interrupted my searches, chart reading, & portfolio calculations on average every 4 minutes to push your premium upgrade. Whose brainchild was this? FireHim

STOP the POP UPs for the Premium Service you guys are getting worse than the My Pillow guy.
Agreed, this is now at obscene levels of forcing ads in front of me that I click out of every time. Not only is it a bad UX, it is a very low-rent tactic as well. If it doesn't stop soon I'm going to go elsewhere for stock charts, info & commentary. I like SA but there are plenty of other places to get the same stuff.
Pop ups even screw up the new comments on a page Yahoo Finance is looking better with each Seeking Alpha pop up

Your annoying pop ups screw up the new comments to where we have to hunt and peck to find the new comment instead of getting directly to them.
When this happens, I just leave for a few hours.
STOP THE STUPID POP UPS
Seeking Alpha, your stupid POP UPS screw up the new comments
When this happens, I just leave the site altogether. I am not going to hunt around for a new comment when it was screwed up by your stupid POP UP asking me AGAIN to subscribe to your premium service.
ENOUGH
Seeking Alpha, stop with the stupid POP UPS you even mess up reading new comments with the stupid POP UP
Every time I come onto a new page for stock there is a pop-up.
Some times the pop up comes up a few seconds later and then resets me to the top of the page.
This is annoying. Stop with the stupid pop-ups.
One pop-up every login is fine. Not one for every new page.
Your pop-ups are useless. I don't even read them, I reflexively close them.
So you are:
1) Antagonizing me
2) Not actually getting whatever you want me to read in front of me because I don't even bother.
So are they any useful then?
