Think it stays on until I close it. No problem just annoying and the first time I seen a popup on the forum. Hope it's not a sigh of things to come.
Yep

Yes, I did. But not in the past few days.
Maybe not since you posted your question.
Maybe the site admins can explain this. Was it by design for ad revenue*, or a hack?
I ask, since I had no idea what a "kegerator" was and had to look it up -- and it apparently has nothing to do with wine making.
So, someone, somewhere, I think, has some explaining to do why this non-wine making popup appeared.....
*I have nothing against any site or business posting ads to enable their business to provide content in general --- but popups are the most annoying and counter productive means of doing so. Inline ads, in a forum like this which is text based, are much better -- not as lucrative in general settings, but more conducive to the format and audience mindset of a forum, and thus, actually, more lucrative as members will otherwise complain and thus refuse intrusive ad formats not in an inline text style. Basic marketing concepts here: Know your audience. Hope this helps.
