Would like to request that the admins reinstate the Xenforo Default theme as it gave a much better mobile experience without the page jumping all over the place.

Is there any reason why it was removed?

The only reason is to accommodate ads?
The mobile experience with ads is downright impossible, the whole page jumps back and forth incessantly until all the ads are loaded, which is a good 5-10s after page load. Could you guys fix that before disabling the xenforo template?

I mean just look at the amount of complaining in the forum about your ads...

Yup, we'll be discussing this internally to see how we can smoothen things. I too am experiencing this.

This is one of the problems of not being able to experience it first hand without live load situations, unfortunately.

Just to check, for the 5 to 10-sec wait time, do you have any ad blockers installed? I don't personally experience such a long wait time... just 1 to 2 seconds at most, but what is jarring to me is how the page elements get pushed around during the wait.

Nope just a slow internet connection that causes the ads to take a longer time to load
