Flight Rising Discussion

[img]https://i.imgur.com/gMFXVMV.png[/img] I have gotten the pop up auto show ad as well!

This isn't an ad that goes outside the page, but an ad I felt was inappropriate to be shared on Flight Rising. [img]https://i.imgur.com/1Qb7Ses.png[/img] I don't think e-cigarettes should be advertised on a site like FR, [i]especially[/i] since the site is accessible to young teenagers (not to mention, people ages <21 may not smoke legally in the US).

I don't have a screenshot right now, but this popup kept on showing up telling me the following: This this and that, (app.mediaplex.com) Wants your username and password. Username: -- Password: -- Edit: Here ya go (I'm using Microsoft edge.) [img]https://i.imgur.com/cF4UEIl.png[/img] Of course I'm not dumb enough to enter my user and password, but it breaks my heart to have to use Microsoft Edge's adblock.

I have experienced the same as Aquasd, repeatedly, it's getting a bit bothersome and from some googling I have found that this 'mediaplex' service is known to cause this kind of thing and that such pop-ups may just be nuisance, but can be possibly malicious (I wouldn't know, I've closed it every time, so who's to say what happens if you were to put in details). I can't block it, I tried to, but the pop-up comes up anyway :S I'm using Google Chrome, so it's not limited to one browser. It started happening in just the last couple of days, for me. To anyone else getting this, I'd recommend not putting any info in (not that I expect you guys would be that trusting of unknown pop-ups), apparently mediaplex is known to be used by some less-than-honourable parties, so it's a safe bet not to trust any pop-up from them. EDIT: literally just after I posted this, it came up again, so I got a screenie of how it looks for me [img]https://78.media.tumblr.com/47aa376ed28554f5b7f7c410514d656e/tumblr_p0prhfAwmg1rpvw9ko1_400.jpg[/img]

I have the same problem as BlakDraygen and noticed it only happens on FR. The only way to resolve this problem is with adBlock which I don't want to use on this site.

i encountered this ad and while it didn't cover my screen it might be a little inappropriate. It was an ad for underwear from la senza. i took a screenshot on my laptop but i don't know how to put it in a forum post

I am also getting the ad that both Aquasd and BlakDraygen have encountered. I'm on chrome and it seems to stop when I turn on ad block for this site. I don't want to keep it on but it was popping up every 5 minutes for me.

It's also started happening on my tablet, which I use chrome as well.

Edit:
I'm actually still getting it on the occasion but it seems to be only with sites that are part of hivework .

I'm getting this too, so I guess the site itself has the virus? Theyll need to fix that so the only option is adblock for now then.

Also getting the Mediaplex popup every time I visit the site - Flight Rising is the only website I access that this has been happening to.
