I've been getting full screen pop-up ads on my phone lately. Im wondering if I got some crap on my phone or if it's ads here. It's a completely up to date pixel 2 xl. Only seems to occur on gaf though.
If you get intrusive ads just post them. We can't fix things we're not aware of.
Same concept here. Except usually from amazon and samsung, with the occaisonally low-bit sounding CONGRATULATIONS. Usually i get one every time i open up gaf for the first time, but this morning one would pop up every other minute regardless of what internet app i use on my phoneHere you go. I loaded GAF on my iPhone, clicked the OT forum and got this pop up:
Something is up with gaf and these ads. Is the site running down on cashflow?
No, we are not intentionally running bad ads. I've never done that. Nothing's changed about our ad serving. It's an industry-wide problem now that there isn't much of a human element involved at the ad networks. We only use high quality ad providers, and we have systems in place to detect and mitigate bad ads, and they work for the most part, but these automatic redirects on mobile have been the toughest to deal with since they don't leave much of a trail behind that users can report about the details of the ad itself.
I went to go post that yes, Gaf is the only site that this happens to me on on mobile and lo and behold I got some shitty popup ad, couldn't use the back button, had to renavigate to m.neogaf.com just to get back here and post this.
I never had one in 4 years or however long I've been a gaffer and then started getting them about once or twice every visit as of a couple months ago... : (
Yep.Yeah, the past week has been particularly bad on mobile.
I get this one on mobile sometimes. No issues otherwiseHere you go. I loaded GAF on my iPhone, clicked the OT forum and got this pop up:
Major pop ups and redirects on my iPhone.
This is the only site on the internet that does this to my iPhone .
This is not industry wide this is neogaf specific. This will reduce the already significantly reduce traffic.
Action is required Evillore
