Greetings Islanders, This is a more serious thread I am posting in taco island because of the amount of activity here. I have noticed an obnoxious increase in malicious redirect ads on proboards. I personally have been experienceing them a lot on mobile but it appears it can happen on any platform. So with permission from CE Markanite I am posting this thread and asking that anyone who gets a malicous redirect report it here. Once we collect some information Mark and I will be reporting it to proboards with the hope that they will address and fix the issue. The report should include the amount of time before being redirected (it can vary and we dont need it to be exact just a rough estimate), the link of the website you end up on, the time and timezone when the redirect occurs, and the device you are using when the redirect occurs. It may be a bit inconvenient but it contributes greatly to the safety and well being of the islands. It is our hope that this will result in an end to the problem. Thank you for your time! |

Thank you so much, I thought I was going crazy.
The next time I get one, I’ll post whichever link (there’s about 3 I usually get one of.).
For now, I’ll add that it usually always occurs when I’m off WiFi and on cell network and enter the site.

It’s calmed down on my end anyway, although I may have jinxed it by telling you that.  |

So proboards support have implemented software to remove these ads from circulation. They have advised me that this takes a little bit of time once they are identified.
Please continue to report any ads of this nature.
