Urgent Appeal on Behalf of iPhone and iPad Users - PART TWO (in caps)

by Guest Mon Sep 19, 2016 5:48 pm

Hi Ben,

Hope all is ok with you. For several days now when you try to access the site via iPad or iPhone you face a pop up "Congratulations Google User!" advert and redirected to Google Membership Rewards site us.5tkbltvq.pw

It also affects inaflap so I can only assume it's another Forumotion glitch Urgent Appeal on Behalf of iPhone and iPad Users - PART TWO (in caps) Angry_12

Is this something you could raise on the Forumotion site please? Both Eddie and Miffs cannot access the site. My laptop is ok so I've been asked to raise this with you.

Hope you can help, I'm not sure if it affects other tablets?

IMPORTANT!!!

THAT LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING VERY DODGY TO ME!!!

LOOKS LIKE SOME SORT OF POPUP/VIRUS/HACK ATTEMPT!!!

DO NOT CONTINUE TO PLAY ALONG WITH ANY OF IT!!!

DO NOT CLICK ON ANY OF THE OPTIONS SHOWN!!!

NOT EVEN ON THE 'CLOSE' OR 'CANCEL' OR 'X' (etc)!!!

CLOSE THE WHOLE BROWSER APPLICATION DOWN HOWEVER YOU WOULD NORMALLY DO SO!!!

THEN TURN OFF INTERNET/WIFI CONNECTIONS!

THEN TRY TO REOPEN BROWSER AND GO INTO SETTINGS AND DELETE COOKIES ETC...

IF NO GOOD THEN GO INTO MAIN DEVICE SETTINGS AND INTO BROWSER APP SETTINGS... DELETE CASHEL AND SAVED STUFF... YOU MIGHT LOSE SOME OF YOUR BROWSING HISTORY OR SAVED PAGES ETC BY DOING THIS.

RESTART INTERNET CONNECTIONS AND TRY ACCESS AGAIN.

I'VE SAME SHIT HAPPENING THEN TRY USING DIFFERENT BROWSER... FIREFOX IS GOOD.

by eddie Mon Sep 19, 2016 9:16 pm

Tommy I did all of that
It's a forumotion problem as their site is full of other forums saying the same thing.

by Ben Reilly Mon Sep 19, 2016 9:37 pm

Tommy, did it make your caps lock key stick?

I KNOW, AND I SEE WHERE HE'S COMING FROM. IT'S JUST A BIT HARD TO READ ANYTHING WRITTEN IN ALL CAPS, REGARDLESS OF HOW GENTLE AND WELL INTENDED, AS BEING ANYTHING BUT SCREAMING. I'M TRYING TO BE REASONABLE. I'M CALM. CALM, I TELL YOU.

by eddie Mon Sep 19, 2016 9:54 pm

I wouldn't like anyone to caps lock me upon waking either. ITS ANNOYING.

the FM mobile site is still a beta, (unless it has recently changed) avoid it, use the classic version

substitute the site name for the xyz.forumotion.co.uk bit

Yes I know that, thanks though. That's the format I always need to visit flap but the other version is so basic I can't moderate or pm or do much else really.

I had a look at this today and they have updated the mobile app to Version 2 now and it certainly appears to work here and elsewhere.
there was a bit of java script that was hiding the login menu on my site which has now been removed.
I am speaking from the perspective of an android user and cannot say anything about ipads or iphones.

Folks, I don't know what to do for you. I did get a PM from the King of Forumotion in which she assured me that Texas is the most important region for them, and that they really don't care about other countries like the UK or Oklahoma.

I immediately entreat you to enter into diplomatic negotiations, as most of the Texan Navy is old rowboats.

Well those certainly will prove no threat to our aggressive whippets and ferrets, so I will summon up a colliery brass band to give a rousing rendition of "On Ilkla Moor b'hat 'at" while we sign the necessary papers assigning, say, Dallas, to The People's Republic of Yorkshire - and then we'll shake hands on it and have a few pints of Oakwell Ale.

if you are using an android phone/tablet then can I suggest
uc browser available in the google play store. It includes an add blocker which works very well in my experience. It is also quite good at saving on what is downloaded.

Thank you Dean (I have seen other people call you that and it's shorter than your user name so I will too if that's OK)
I will attempt to do that.
