LMU Posted January 14, 2021 Author Share Posted January 14, 2021 To provide an update to a few issues... *I just started the process of reindexing the board. Hopefully that'll solve the issue with the search feature. It'll take a while. *The ad issues are being addressed. I have no idea what the timeframe will be but the process has started. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Glad to hear the ad issues are being addressed. Hit a new low tonight. I would pay a couple bucks a month to not have to deal with this. 1 On 1/25/2013 at 1:53 PM, 'Atom said: For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head.

Sodboy13 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Hope I can do this fast enough, because my antivirus keeps blocking the site as a phishing attack, due to one of those full screen takeover ads that insists I'm eligible for a $1,000 Walmart gift card. EDIT: Happened twice in the time it took me to type this. 3 On 1/25/2013 at 1:53 PM, 'Atom said: For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head.

DG_ThenNowForever Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Is The Lounge loading especially slow for anyone else? The other sub-forums load fine, but The Lounge takes a good 10 seconds. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other sub-forums load fine, but The Lounge takes a good 10 seconds. We've noticed that for a while. Not sure what we can do about it. One of the issues is that there's a board update that's been pending for a bit but can't be installed since it's incompatible with the current board configuration. Chris is looking into how to adapt it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Per the release notes for that update, it's only compatible with boards that are configured for 2,500 or fewer ads per page, so a few dozen need to be cut out before it gets applied.

DCarp1231 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Yesterday, I began to notice a flag icon for reporting on all the top ad banners. I’d assume this is a new site feature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I have whined about it before (my word, not casting shade or anything). I THINK that anytime threads are merged, weirdness ensues with the board's ability to know where you left off. Is it important? Not really, but I was having one of those evenings that it merited a post It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't at me if that isn't ironic, I really don't care And yes, reported I did a full erase and factory restore of my phone, so it was basically a brand-new phone. Didn't 'restore from backup' - started out brand new. So no chance of 'viruses' or any bugs or whatever. The first site I came to was this one, and on the very first visit, got hijacked every single time by some site claiming that my phone had a virus and I had to click somewhere to pay them to repair it. Couldn't stay on the site for longer than around 10 seconds before it got redirected to either a virus-scam site or a gambling site. After another restart, I'm not getting hijacked, but I'm dealing with 1" of usable space on the phone because of the pop-up ads and other nonsense - on a brand-new phone. This site (not its content or members) is crap. 3 "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

I don’t get it nearly as bad as I did with Android Google but it is still an issue that happens a lot more than it should. EDIT: I’m a dumbass, it’s Google Chrome on Android not Android Google.
