Quite like the album cover!
On a side note, last time I frequented this forum was in the build up to As You Were and I had no issues. Now all I'm getting is pop ups redirecting me to scam websites. Anything I can do about this? This is the only site I get this issue on, and my browser shows me a hazard warning for the site itself. Any idea? Didn't know where to post this tbf.

I'm also getting the scams today. Yeah me too on WiFi (only this site) ok if I switch to 4g I was getting them at work earlier on 4G. There's no reason that should make a difference.

It really really does for me, I’m on an iPhone, not sure if that’s relevant. As soon as I turn WiFi off it’s fine. All other sites are fine on WiFi. This is the only site that’s affected.

Those who has/had the same issue, please post in this thread which spamsite you were directed to. We'll work it out to solve this issue as soon as possible. Thanks everyone!

I've had this as well recently. Seems worse on 4G but still get it on WiFi too. Also changing browser helped, didn't seem as bad using Chrome.
My work WiFi has restrictions on it and this forum is banned as being unsafe. It let's me on other forums and youtube though so it's not a blanket ban.
If I get another pop up telling I've won a prize 😠😠😠😂😂😂

do you all have iPhones? I have Android and I've used the forum on 4g and wifi without issues. Always on chrome
try the Tapatalk app as a workaround

I'm on Android. Quite an old version though. It's actually been a lot better today. The last 2/3 days it got really bad. Getting a new phone in a couple of weeks though so hopefully that will help. 👍

It’s happened to me many times over the last couple years, I just close the site for a couple hours and it goes away. Always on my phone when it happens, iPhone 7 on WiFi. The sites I got yesterday were Walmart-awards .info And iPhone4u .world And Samsung-2019-awards .email

So Proboards support has several answers posted. Two are below:
"Apologies for the inconvenience. That ad has been flagged and should be removed from the system shortly. If you continue to get the ad, please let us know."
"There are scripts in place to automatically detect redirecting ads which causes problems like this and will take some time to remove it from circulation. Thank you for your patience."

how many members have been having issues with forum redirection please? I've had a couple of times in past, but not now anymore. I've scanned my computer after I got re-directed.

I don't know if this is the same issue, but in the last couple of weeks when I'm on a L4E page, I keep getting redirected to some website called referrly.com. I'm not even clicking a link, it's just sending me there automatically.

Correction: it's referrerly.com. It just did it to me again, so I could double-check.

Answer from Proboards support: Hi Although it may appear random, could you link to a page it has happened on, and does it still do it on that page? Also, has this coincided with any changes you have made on the forum? In the case that it is a problem advert, this should already have been detected and removed from the system. If you get it again, could you immediately click the back button in your browser, and this should reaffirm to the system that it is a problematic ad.
