tpbury Posted 13 July, 2016 Share Posted 13 July, 2016 Where you get re-directed isn't really relevant as it's based on your history, as deduced by Google. It is the fact that you get re-directed which is important. I assume these kind of ads generate more income than the ones that just sit on the page. To be fair, Baj has stated that he hasn't intended that these kind of ads to be used, but it is clear that they are being used. I'm also getting the dialogue boxes which insist you click 'Ok', so I shut down the browser, rather than invite a virus in. It is really annoying me that this website is behaving cheaper and sleazier than before. It's just not classy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 14 July, 2016 Share Posted 14 July, 2016 As with others, loads of redirects and dodgy pop-ups telling you to click various things. Not good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrant Posted 15 July, 2016 Share Posted 15 July, 2016 Thanks for all the reports, we are investigating and will disable the ad networks that are causing the issues when we work out which ones are the offenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint137 Posted 18 July, 2016 Share Posted 18 July, 2016 As with others I only get redirects on my iPad, no issues on Android phone or laptop (all Chrome bar the iPad) Occasionally on the laptop (Mac) something starts eating up resources (fan starts whirring, CPU goes through the roof, page becomes unresponsive. Only happens here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpbury Posted 18 July, 2016 Share Posted 18 July, 2016 Took me 10 minutes to navigate to this page today - porn and money making re-directs - and I don't even watch porn! Nor do I make any money. This on Windows laptop. Sort it out Steve - it's not funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor do I make any money. This on Windows laptop. Sort it out Steve - it's not funny. I have just been redirected to a porn site... at work! Not good. That now makes this site NSFW, now I will have to do some work. Due to the spam, crashing etc I have been looking at comrade Paps site Sotonians, he seems to have quite a few from here who have migrated across.

benjii Posted 19 July, 2016 Share Posted 19 July, 2016 On my Android phone, this site is now unusable over Wi-Fi. OK over 4g though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Man Do Posted 19 July, 2016 Share Posted 19 July, 2016 Random amount of redirects for me. Seems fine on a laptop via chrome but on IPad and safari it's a nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baj Posted 20 July, 2016 Share Posted 20 July, 2016 Turning it off right now, if you guys get anything after about an hours time, please say immediately. Apologies, I was convinced to try a network that I shouldnt have... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baj Posted 20 July, 2016 Share Posted 20 July, 2016 Ok, this is now done. I'd really appreciate it if you could all give feedback on whether it's helped or not, since I need to bend the ear of the right people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpbury Posted 20 July, 2016 Share Posted 20 July, 2016 Thanks bah. Haven't had problems in lay 10 minutes, so seseems ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baj Posted 20 July, 2016 Share Posted 20 July, 2016 Ok, great, anyone else? tpbury, would you say you would definitely had had the issue again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpbury Posted 20 July, 2016 Share Posted 20 July, 2016 Yep - the re-directs are gone, thanks Baj. I haven't reinstalled Shockwave yet, and that caused a real problem with this site in terms of swallowing all the CPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baj Posted 21 July, 2016 Share Posted 21 July, 2016 Ok, I think we 100% know which network it was. They have promised to clean up their act, and I said I would test again in a couple of weeks. As such, it would be good if we could synchronise me putting them live again with you testing so we know if it's still an issue. I'll post in this thread a couple of days before hand.

holepuncture Posted 5 August, 2016 Author Share Posted 5 August, 2016 Hi Baj, All seems to be working alright my end now :-) Still getting the odd redirect to spam sites on ios.

stevegrant Posted 1 November, 2016 Share Posted 1 November, 2016 Yeah, sorry about that, my fault. Upgraded a component on the server (which I needed to be able to test the new forum), but it had a knock-on effect on the connection to the database.

Lord Duckhunter Posted 28 December, 2016 Share Posted 28 December, 2016 I can't seem to get on with my phone or tablet . One is iOS & one Android , using safari & Firefox respectively . Keep getting redirected to something called "ww 1.3d-wares.com". Anyone got any ideas what it is or how to lose it. I'm having to use tapatalk and I don't like it at all.
