While this is really funny... his posts are seriously pretty f#%$ing annoying. If he keeps it up, just start reporting them.

Edit: just came back to say Garage Talk crashed as I was posting this. Apropos.

I'm using the app "1Blocker" on my iPhone, keeps the ads off and doesn't redirect my phone on here anymore. Works pretty well with other sites too.

Uou can can use it for one of the options inside the app or pay to use it all. I just use the one for free and block the ads. Hope this helps!

I installed Firefox focus. And then switched it to on for safari. It seems to be working.

It's a shame that a company would rather have users block ALL ads than to only put reputable ads up.

I get this once a day on my cell when I click a link to a thread (This site) I've subscribed to. F150 will open to the thread and then almost immediately the screen in the picture opens. Have to back out and start over?

What must I do to stop this from happening?

I figured out the problem. Walk out to your garage/side of the house. Look for the circle can looking thing with a lid. Open the lid, drop your iphone in and close the lid. Turn around and get in your F150. Drive to your nearest cellular provider. Buy anything but a windows/apple phone. Problem solved.

happens on android devices as well, even brand new ones. Mobile theme or desktop theme, doesn't matter.

Whenever something like this happens, take a screenshot (print screen button), right click it and get the URL address, and send that info to me. I'll get it handled by our tech crew.

I read your post with much astonishment. There are multiple posts, going back quite some time, regarding this issue. Here's one with a discussion with Martian about the issue:
https://www.f150forum.com/f27/getting-out-hand-348944/

It seems pretty clear that if the owners of the site had any intention to address the issue they would have done so already, no?

I'm still getting the above screen shot, once a day, when I click on a link to a subscribed thread at this site.
