Email is in profile; I'm happy to send you screenshots. I regularly get 2 ads back-to-back, and I recently got three in a row.

I typically bail when I see two in a row, in a vain attempt to send the message that multiple ads back-to-back is not cool.

edit: just logged in and of the first 20 timeline items, 9 were ads (including two cases of back-to-back ads). It's basically half of what I see.

I just checked and right now it looks like every other post in my feed is an ad, with some ads having 2-3 posts in between.

I wonder if you don't follow a lot of pages or something, so it's breaking the algorithm.

You’re right that I don’t follow many pages. But I have plenty of friends, with plenty of activity (and I don’t check FB often, so there’s a lot they could show me when I do).
