This morning, I logged in on my phone, and instantly got redirected to some Facebook page. Tried again, got redirected to an expired domain. Now I'm posting this on my PC, which has Adblock(Also lets me browse the old forums!). Please help. I think the ghost of Thrive forums past has come for us.

This happens sometimes to me too. Only when I'm off wifi though. My solution for it is to stop the page from fully loading.

Yeah this happens to me a lot to, sometimes even on Wi-Fi. My solution is to do what Atrox says and try to stop the page from loading completely. It can be a pain especially if you are writing a reply and if gets blocked and you have to start over.

Are you on the mobile version? I've found if you go to the desktop version on mobile it doesn't happen. Unfortunately there are only two ways to stop this: pay to remove ads or move to another forum host. The latter is probably out of the question since we've done a lot of work moving everything to this one, so that only leaves paying. Moopli owns the Admin account here so it's his call. From the looks of it it's a monthly payment system for a designated number of pageviews. Given our popularity could be unpredictable, I have no idea how many pageviews would be best to pay for. Right now the default of 50,000 per month might just about cover it, but any increased outreach would pose a problem. |

Hmm I haven't done the desktop site thing so I'll try that out, it is probably just the mobile site

It happened to me too; it will eventually pass.
