BigFootsSocks Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Maybe it's those Skye Buildings we saw in that weird promotional vid a few years back... Edit; Also is anyone getting those annoying ad redirects again? I would send a message but this is the first time I've gotten through to a post in a couple of days. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep everytime I come to the forum or try to click on post I get redirected to ingmatic.com. It's very frustrating. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montrose1100 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I reported the ads to Admin already. They seem to have stopped. I enjoy the investigative work. Shame we haven't found renderings yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I still get those ridiculous "your phone has been randomly selected to win a $1000 gift card" ads that automatically redirect me from this site to ingmatic.. at least when I'm on safari on my cellphone. Suuuuppperrr annoying. I usually have to go back, try to open the tab again, and eventually go back again because the same ad keeps popping up. It makes navigating this site from a cellphone extremely difficult/frustrating. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montrose1100 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Like I said I've reported it to Admin with a screenshot. Suggest everyone does the same (took several tries). I feel the frustration as a mobile user. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFootsSocks Posted June 27, 2017 Author Share Posted June 27, 2017 It seems like it's the same ad for everyone so not sure what sending a screenshot would accomplish other than flooding the admin's inbox, though it seems that might do the trick to get their attention...

markaferdd Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 I've been having the same issue. I downloaded Weblock on my iPhone and it seems to have stopped the redirects. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronTiger Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 I use script-blockers and other tools on my desktop, but browsing HAIF mobile is a painful experience because regularly, I try to click on some topic link, and before the topic fully loads it redirects me to some third party spam site. Then when I try to click back, it takes me back to the index and not the topic I was reading. It's terribly frustrating and I don't know what's the cause of it (host, third party attacking host, webmaster) but it wasn't always like this and I'm wondering if anyone else has had the same issues.

cspwal Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 On my phone, I use an app called "Purify" that blocks that sort of malicious ad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
