Can the owners of this forum please do SOMETHING about those pop up ads that come out of nowhere and wont let you back out to get back to the thread. Is this forum being hacked?- it happens all the time.
Please look into this- its ruining a good forum.
Regards,Bear

I see you are accessing via iPhone.

While they are working out this most recent bug, I suggest you access the Forum w/ the free Forum App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/gara...964719306?mt=8

It's nasty shareware and I'm not leaving it on long enough for a screenshot, just want it gone.

Getting redirects frequently over the last few days to an ad for some superhero game and if I don't quickly swipe back it will swap out to the Apple App Store

Running via Safari on iPhone 6s with iOS 9.3.3 in the 27302 and surrounding ZIP code area.
