The edited title is incorrect - this is a completely different issue than the one in the linked thread above, and isn't even referring to the same type of ad or an ad that appears at the same stage of loading. This should have been obvious from my description.
This refers to the full-screen splash ads on the main menu that cause a Grey Screen of Death when someone attempts to close them in order to be able to use the main menu, freezing the game and requiring a force quit.
This is such a widely reported, common issue that it's concerning that reporting it gets incorrectly linked with a random, entirely unrelated previous bug. Can you please revert it to the correct previous title so as to not cause confusion?

Literally just fell victim to this exact thing, I just searched in the entire site for "grey", "greyed out" and "gray," went through the list of reported bugs to try to not create a duplicate, and then reported it. They then marked mine as a duplicate of this report, but mine specifically stated ads ARE dismissible. I am just stuck on this grey screen of death. Quite frustrating but a bit funny as I read more through this post and see others ran into the same thing.
