Report Problems with Ads Here!

Advally is in charge of ads on AK. Cloudflare block is not in his purview. His post was relating to the notion that the site should be back to normal with regards to ads.
he was talking about the Audiokarma massive DDoS attack . and added security by cloudflare which mistakenly blocked me until someone cares to sort it out at the server end .
 
Here we go again… Trying to click “Next >” in a thread only opens a full page Best Buy ad.

Please do something about this.

Definitely does not encourage me to buy anything from Best Buy.IMG_6717.png
 
Unwilling to login when Cloudflare rears it’s ugly head….
As with this weekend.
I just go elsewhere.
 
@M70AB2 Hey M70AB2, thanks for continuing to report this — we really appreciate your persistence.

We've been digging into this and I wanted to ask you a couple of quick questions that will help us track down what's happening:

1. When this happens, is AudioKarma still open in another browser tab? It looks like your browser is actually navigating away from AK to bestbuy.com (rather than a popup). If you check your open tabs, AK should still be there.

2. What were you tapping when it happened? Was it a navigation link like "Next >" at the bottom of a thread, a thread title, or something else?

3. Does it happen on specific pages/threads, or random?

4. If you go back to AK and tap the same link again, does it work normally the second time?

This info will help us pinpoint exactly which ad element is misbehaving. We're working on a permanent fix but need to catch the culprit in the act.
 
Yes. Sure is! I think it’s a 1979 Peter Frampton(?) tribute. The guitar is my post—not part of an ad.
I think that Ibanez has a powered onboard pre-amp? I never had luck with those. Noisy or eats batteries. Or both.

:(
