[Closed] Rogue adverts

It's nature's way of telling you to get a P sub.

Or more rogue adverts.

But redirecting to a porn site (which I have never been on (notes for later) whilst browsing next to my wife is bang out of order.

bangoholic out of order.

But shoot an email to tech@singletrackworld.com or scream into a jar.

Both will probably have the same results.

What he said. Screen shots helpful. I've reported it.

Will do that if it happens again :-/

I'm sure you can manage to find your own

There's porn on the internet now? Why wasn't i informed!?

Can we post screenshots of full-frontal fellatio? Animated with a gif.

Because that's what it is.

Bit early for that.

Maybe a banana....

I'm sure she'd forgive you eventually. Might even kindle a little spark.....;)

However, it would be significantly worse on a work computer in an open office. Bordering on an unforgivable error from a site that's moderated as a "family friendly" one.

Don't the adverts appear based on your internet usage?

Somewhere someone is complaining to a typically disinterested moderator they just had a redirect to a mountain biking website. It could even be a moderator from this site multitasking.

Here's a screenshot of my history when the event occurred.

I've been getting strange redirects too

On both android and Windows 10

No porn though

I never got this one, so, no.

You guys are always going on about how buying a cheapo car and running it into the ground is 'the way forward' and more cost effective... Just buy a new car and be done with it.

Now you're setting up a webpage about your addiction to the bangernomics process, it seems.

I'm out

Hey guys. Tom here from the tech team. Just wondering if I could get some more information on the issue such as where and when it happens plus a screenshot if possible.

Email @singletrackworld.com">tech@singletrackworld.com or me personally at @singletrackworld.com">tom.alker@singletrackworld.com.
Thanks.

Will do next time it comes up.

I will certainly screenshot it if it happens again - does my above posted history help?

That and the sodding redirect to "BT customer survey"

And while we're on it, does anyone else think the camelback advert is a bit shapely too?

Vinz?

Vinz Clortho?

Is that you?

I've had a few redirects recently, will screenshot and post when it happens again.

lol @ irony of this post having an advertising banner for russian brides on it too..

Just emailed. Had a dodgy link appear again whilst clicking on the main "bike forum" tab. Would post screenshot if not for fear of ban-hammer.

post a link to a screenshot with a warning? "clicker beware".. surely thats legal?

[i] Would post screenshot if not for fear of ban-hammer.[/i]

that's a bit like FB reporting BBC to police for sending them links they were displaying to users, no?

Too many oldies on here with high enough blood pressure as it is without knowing what "Jen, 29" would like to do to me tonight. Wife looked over at just the wrong moment, had a lot of explaining to do. Glad this thread exists!

Brow, eh?

LOLs

I've had a few odd redirects on my phone (android). One of those "warning, virus detected" style scam things with a popup and vibration on the phone.

...NOT SAFE FOR WORK/KIDS...

Do admin not care? I've just picked up my phone to find the thread that was loading took me to an adult site.

This is what your users are putting up with...I've deliberately posted a small screenshot to avoid excessive detail, the image visible is rather tame compared to the rest of page which is showing hardcore porn.

If this is the sort of uncontrolled/malicious advertising on the site and admin are struggling to identify the problem...surely there is no debate...the third party advertising should simply be switched off until the issue is resolved?

I know this is against the rules, but STW, you're not exactly treating this as a priority it seems...

[quote=spooky_b329 ]the third party advertising should simply be switched off until the issue is resolved?Gotta agree with that. Advertising feeds have been switched off previously while Mark has investigated them.

(Notices there's only 2m30s left to register though.....)

surely there is no debate...the third party advertising should simply be switched off until the issue is resolved?

As previously mentioned, that link/image could cause someone issues at work. If this is, as the moderation policy would have us believe, a family friendly site, then yes, shut down all adverts until resolved.

I've just had a similar redirect when loading the Amazon *@#* thread.

Didn't take screenshots but my history had that cloudatt.com redirect that the previous screenshots show.

1. in the ass

can you scroll?

Who knew there were so many horny milfs in my area right now just waiting to be fornicated.

DR, you of all people should have identified that option earlier.

Interesting. I assumed it was only non-Ps that were affected. If it's P users too then that should make narrowing down the culprit much more likely.

(I assume you have ads disabled?)

Well in the picture she was alone and having sex so.

Pretty ****ing shocking that this should.happen.

So no swearing on the forum but OK that it redirects to a woman stuffing four fingers up herself.

I keep getting the "you have a virus" android warning pop up thing, no porn though still have to find that myself.

Phah.

Chuffing hilarious.

P or no P, totally irrelevant in the world of no swearing and yet porn redirects.

Should be ashamed.

I've reported it to the Mods, whilst I don't/haven't been infected or redirected I think it's too serious an issue to be ignored.

Tech might be at home watching C5 crap or in the Pub, but issues like this should be easy to sort out if you use the vast IT resource I mentioned in "that other thread"

How many more threads are needed before you either accept the sites being targeted and you put some resources behind it or just accept that users will be pissed off ?

Seems nobody writes shite for windows any more.

And not wanting to cast aspertions or anything but as long as there are cougars, there is porn.

not quite as good as monster facials or whatever, but when I open the "£%$"£$ Amazon thread I get ads for Amazon, nice one
