Popups and ads on mobile browsing
 
It really is getting bad. I did a virus and malware check of my phone thinking it was my device.
These popups are horrible. Can't be backed out of you just get caught in the popup loop.

fuuuuck that. That looks like the virus with those scare tactics. The last thing I'd do is download that app. In fact I'd check that no Applock crap already wormed its way in.

Kaspersky, Avast, McAfee, Norton....familiar names that won't infect your phone.

Mankdrake 2661 01-29-18 07:03 PM

I don't click it. It's not from the App. It's from the web version of the site. This is the only place I get that pop up.

I get the “Amazon $1000 Giftcard” popup every 3 minutes on this site and LS1Tech. Only happens on my iPhone tho, my Android S7 work phone has no problems. Veryyyy annoying

The other day was the first day I even bothered to hop on here while using my phone. 30 seconds later I get blasted with spam even though I'm logged in. Shitty and over the top is what that is.

I am getting to the point where I don't even use the mobile site on an iPhone. It is ridiculous. There should be some sort of standards for what advertisers you allow and some sort of screening process.

It's been absolutely horrendous as of late could hardly even find the information I needed over the weekend from threads I had bookmarked as reference.

Mankdrake 2661 02-05-18 05:54 PM

Bump...............

Are Moderators aware of this?

Radorix 02-05-18 06:00 PM

Android has an experimental feature for chrome to help with this problem Chrome's blocker for redirecting ads won't be turned on until April

lcdial 02-06-18 12:32 PM

I'll echo these comments. The pop-up / redirect ads are really bad now. It used to just be once in a while, now it's all the time. Also, are these paid ads? They look like scams....

Also, to get back to the site, go to your history and look about five pages back. That's how they keep you from hitting back to eliminate the popup....

Moderators,
PLEASE get to the bottom of this. Site is unusable on my mobile device.

JSmall 02-12-18 12:23 PM

Yeah I find this pretty bad also aye. Every time I come on to this website on my phone. Also doesn't help having the millions of normal ads on the website which then make it difficult to do anything on the forum -.-

WANKfactor 02-12-18 07:33 PM

I was getting this today too. Rendered the site unusable. Some shit about congratulation ive won $1000 and my device is infected click here fro protection. Plastered in youtube, android, google, samsung, iphone logos. Who ever is responsible for this shite needs to be found and killed.

Smokey The Talon 02-13-18 10:49 AM

I get a bunch of redirects saying I've won Amazon gift cards when trying to view the site on my iPad. It's really annoying. It's coming from one of the advertisers on the banners I believe

cr-rex 02-13-18 12:33 PM

same here. i pretty much have to close my browser entirely and reload the session...... im on android

WANKfactor 02-13-18 03:46 PM

Mod please fix this. Its nuts.

lduley 02-14-18 11:56 AM

All these issues are pushing away new members also. Alot of people on facebook say that there are so many ads and adware they won't use it. I get the ads help make the payments, but i would think keeping new people coming in would be higher up on the "to do" list

rxtasy3 02-14-18 11:26 PM

wow, hate hearing bout all these problems everyone is having. glad i use a laptop and have no smart phone.

WANKfactor 02-14-18 11:28 PM

Its absolute bullshit. Cant use my phone on this forum at all. The pop-ups come as quick as they can load, one after another. It really needs to be addressed.

cr-rex 02-14-18 11:50 PM

the rx7club app was a good idea when it was around. i wish they would have pursued making that better

WANKfactor 02-16-18 06:35 PM

All good now 👍

TomU 03-01-18 06:57 PM

I have won well over $100K :egrin:

Smokey The Talon 03-02-18 08:42 AM

Seemed to get better for a while, it really bad again lately. That’s what leads me to believe it’s coming from one of the banner sponsors or something.

Yama 03-02-18 12:58 PM

My browser restarts all the time when reading a thread for more than 15 or so seconds. Tried both safari and chrome via iPhone. Rarely if ever had this issue elsewhere.

DoMaKay 03-16-18 08:44 AM

So far so good. No spam ads coming from my phone
