Forum User Experience Feedback

Page Jumping Due to Advertisement Loading Delays
I noticed that advertisements often take a while to load causing mis-clicks on the page or links as the size of the advertisements isn't specified in the presentation layer of the div/html. My experience is load a forum page/sub-page, this content loads quickly then the advertisement loads which causes the entire page to shift 30 or more pixels causing a completely different forum post/link to be where your mouse is.

Page Styles: White Cursor Color on Input Boxes
- Please don't use white mouse cursor on input boxes like the one I'm typing in, you can't see where your mouse cursor is when making edits to paragraphs and sentences.

Thanks; I need to investigate. Perhaps simply forcing a blank placeholder is a quick fix (no matter how slow the ad loads).

Which country are you in? I'll need to investigate this; it's much worse in some locations.
