I contacted the forum moderators using the correct contact form to report the obtrusive ad a few weeks back but heard nothing. It’s getting to the point of being too much hassle to bother with the forum as it randomly pops up after a few minutes and even refreshing the page doesn’t get rid of it.

Fair Adblocker or Adblock

Fair Adblocker or Adblock Plus, gets rid of most adverts.  A very small number of sites will block you if you are using an ad blocker but there are enough alternative sites on the web that I dont bother trying to read them any more.
