So i was browsing ats on my phone and all the sudden i get bombarded by 25 popups . at first i thought it might be an alarm app i downloaded but it was only happening on ats and none of the other sites i visit. So i got on my other phone and sure enough same thing.
I get the usual popup ad from ats then a rush of 25 blocked ads. I dont use an ad blocker either . after the 25 popups when i click on a thread im redirected to a "you are a winner" web site

Is this happening on ats's end? Because it seems to only be ats and its happening on 2 different devices.

Thats why i tbought it was st4ange. Ats has never given me a problem and like i said i thought it migh have been an app on my end but its two different devices having the same problem and its only ats that seems to be happening on.

No popups ever on any of my devices. Some of your own settings for websites is causing this. And use DESKTOP VERSION...even on mobile.

Settings for websites should NEVER cause this...unless it is the setting "turn off ad blocking only on ATS".

I've only noticed it over the last couple days. I was writing a reply eariler and a pop-up came up. Which covered the reply I was writing for the thread. The page changed to an advert and I lost my ATS page. I had to write the reply all over again.

I did notice twenty five pop-ups as well.

Thus has been happening to me for the past 2 weeks. Right now, after i opened thus thread, cell phone, chrome says it blocked 13 popups in less than 3 minutes.....wtf, 13 popups? I have to keep 2 ats pages open at all times because every 5 to 10 min, i get that stupid "you are a winner" popup that i cant back out of unless i close the page.

ATS IS THE ONLY SITE I HAVE THIS PROBLEM ON. Im starting to find it odd that it only happens on 1 specific site. I have scanned my device , did a factory reset, even before i put my gmail login in after the factory reset to load my apps and contacts, i visited ats, AND I STILL GET THE POPUPS!
Which solidified it in my mind that it is not my phone.

22 popups blocked by the time i finished typing this....

I get the "You are a winner" and Amazon gift card, and stuff from Walmart all the time on mobile. This is one of the few sites I DON'T get that crap on.

Yup, been getting this crap for three days now. I'll be back in a couple weeks to see if you have taken care of it or not.

Be patient folks. I've sent up the alert for Admin to look into this and see if there's something going on. It will get handled if there is.

Same here, 25 blocked pop-ups each time I go to a page/thread on ATS. Isn't happening when I go to any other sites and malware scanner comes back clean

I was actually just about to make a thread about this. I even took a snapshot of my phone screen as it said 25 popups blocked. It's only on this site. Started happening just this week.

Same thing happening here. It's making it impossible to be on ATS.

Same thing for me.

The same for me. Only on my phone, and only while on ATS.
