I know you want us all to accept cookies but let's be honest letting at least 750+ marketing cookies on to your system in one fell swoop is taking the piss.

If it was 20 or so then fair enough.

But having to constantly reject the pop up is also not on.

I've had to say no 10 times in the last 3 minutes.

Why can't it just remember your setting/answer once pressed.

It isn't just this site that wants to overload your cookie settings.

As has been mentioned in the past I'd sooner pay a subscription fee than let all those ad men loose on my system.
 
You certainly shouldn't be getting the pop up repeatedly. What browser are you using?

P.S. there is an ad-free subscription option now: https://forums.bluemoon-mcfc.co.uk/account/upgrades
I am using chrome on the PC, it goes through cycles, sometimes, like today, it goes mental for 15-30 minutes and then it won't ask for weeks.

Other sites that use the same cookie supplier do the same thing, well it is the same question panel anyway.

PS does buying a subscription make you immune from a banning lol

Sounds like you need to delete your browsing history and cookies (for all time) and restart the browser.
 
I don't know if paying for a subscription is meant to stop the cookie alert but I have pressed three buttons on this site today and had to reject it 3 times.
 
@Ric

Make that 8 times now, every click of a page change.

That definitely shouldn’t be happening. Have you deleted your cookies for Bluemoon?
I deleted every cookie on my system as per the instructions on this thread lol but today it is going mental and it is still doing it tbh

I don't have any adverts though :)
 
On what device and which browser? Are you using an ad blocker? Perhaps it's stopping the initial "accept cookies" pop up?
I am using Chrome on a PC, I do use an adblocker but nothing different than I have always used.

To get it to stop am I going to have to accept 'legitimate use only'?

Since I deleted everything after your earlier post, it has been working fine, just today it has gone mental again, I haven't altered anything in the settings.
 
Now it has stopped asking, I have just clicked across 20 pages and not a request, all morning it has been every page, ask, and so on.

I hate technology lol
 
Did you not click on either 'I Agree' or 'More Options' and then choose something? You have to do or the other.
yes, I click on more options and select no cookies, like I have done forever.

That was the problem today and at the start of the thread, it was ignoring the 'no cookies' selection
 
Rather than start a new thread Ric, is there a way to say no to cookies?
I get a pop up every now and again asking to confirm my site cookie preferences. Most sites do this from time to time, so no big deal.
Yesterday, i was asked again to set my cookie preferences. There was an "Accept All" option, but no "Reject All" option.
So i clicked through to options, and there was a few toggles to reject them. So no problem right?
It was when i clicked through to vendor options. Although it looked like there was no accept toggles on, there was "hundreds" of the Vendors still with "Legitimate Use" agreement still switched on.
It took me nearly 30 mins and a lot of patience to switch everyone off.

I only did this yesterday to give me time to come on here and ask why there is no "Reject all" option?
Obviously, i wouldn't do this again.
I'm hoping this is just a glitch. I've already left many sites that use this cookie provider with no "Reject All" option.
I'm not paranoid about cookies. I have no problem with a site providers essential cookies. Advertising/tracking cookies can do one though.
