Congratulations ads keep popping up

[WoomyWa]

idk if this is the place to post it but I keep getting congratulations you have won so and so scam ads. Why do these pop up for me

One actually popped up when I clicked your post...

Oh crud.... guess I’m not alone

I haven’t had “congratulations” things on squidboards in a while (not in months), but for weeks theyve been popping up literally every time I try to go on this other site to the point where I basically can’t access the site

If I’m understanding them correctly they’re caused by ads that contain and run scripts to direct you to other sites. An adblocker should help but I don’t have much experience to reference for that

Yeah I’ve been getting these non-stop too, the forced redirect makes this site literally unusable on mobile right now

Edit: Yep still happening

Beginning to understand why this place is so inactive, asked about this on Discord and was completely ignored :^)
