Is anyone else getting loud pop up ads that take over their screen on the mobile site here?
Its a real nuisance

Vmart @ 5/26/2018 10:39 AM

I get them all the time. Martin got to check his codes some has definitely hacked it.

they are a nuisance.

on the other hand the enlargement cream really did work.

Seems I’m such a lucky Knicks fan, every time I visit, the basketball gods award me a free iPhone. I thought maybe Martin was running a promotion to get some new blood in here :)

Only happens from my mobil, but it’s everytime over the last few months. I like the old school flavor of UK forum software, but being so out of date could have something to do with the invasive bug. Just a guess there, hopefully the tech savy guys can explain ehat is going on. It really sux

Ive had it too. But on my desktop and in chrome. Ill see about grabbing a screenshot next time if that helps.

I get the redirects when I use Chrome and Firefox mobile. They seem to stop when I use Opera. They've become very invasive.

I get them on my iphone using safari as well.

Unfortunately its the ad company supplying jacked up ads. All he could do is shut off the ads I'm not sure how much this would cost Martin but Im willing to throw some money his way for the lost revenue if he went that route

Panos @ 5/26/2018 8:54 PM

It would be pretty bad if they have no control over something like that.

No other forum site I visit has this problem.

Cartman718 @ 5/29/2018 8:57 AM

JesseDark @ 5/29/2018 10:21 AM

Send me bitcoins and I will fix the problem....last warning

martin @ 5/29/2018 12:02 PM

Hey all, sorry about that. Andrew and I were off enjoying away-from-computer time. We'll address. Thanks for your patience.

Also, still happening? Can't tell if this was a couple day thing or on-going.

Rookie @ 5/29/2018 12:13 PM

This article best describes what I have been experiencing on the UK forum for several months. It is still on-going

Thanks. Hit me with an email offline so I can do some testing? info@ultimateknicks.com

ublock origin is your friend. I haven't seen any ads on any site for years.

adguard is redundant if you're using ublock origin.
