Is anyone else getting spam web page redirects while browsing a thread?

[Black Chamber]

I literally had one while I was making this thread!

It always takes me to a "Congratulations" page.

Is this happening to anyone else? It's beyond irritating.

Yeah, several people (including myself) have been reporting these in the ad reporting thread.

I have before on this site. I usually delete my cookies or history and that helps. I think I went into my browser menu thru the applications setting and cleared the cache too

 

[Nappuccino]

I'm a winner like nobody's ever seen before!

 

[thecouncil]

Somebody better do something. And fast.

Anyone also get annoyed that on mobile, when pressing on the left-menu when there's a twitter/youtube/ad underneath it, causes those to open instead of actually navigating to the proper menu page?
