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 I like the old school flavor of UK forum software, but being so out of date could have something to do with the invasive bug.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

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

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

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

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.

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.
