On this site are worse than a porn site?  I feel like I’m going to get a virus or std.

I mentioned this earlier in another thread I understand the revenue aspect Josh needs but it just went full screen on me as well randomly trying to reply to this thread 4X! Seems extreme to me, like I will use this site regardless but for new guys maybe coming to check it out if they can’t view the content then they might not come back. And for me at least I have to exit out of the tab and reopen the forum page can’t just press back. Usually these types of ads.

That means you got some adware that has been installed on your phone unknowingly. This happens to me sometimes on my site and others like Saturday Down South. I don't understand why people would do this, but it happens when you visit lesser known sites. There are ways to get rid of it, but you will need a few minutes to go through the steps. I don't make any revenue when this kind of ad pops up.

Those type of things are viruses

Yes some of them can be... I do not endorse nor have I installed code to allow this. I don't believe that is ethical by any means.

Nor do I get this issue on desktop... this is a phone issue.
