The site is completely unusable on iOS for me now. Can't login, keep getting redirected to ad sites all the time too.
 
download chrome and use that as the browser instead of Safari, I haven't had a problem since
 
Was going to say keep getting the same thing, only seems to happen on the main first page where you pick where you want to go.

Had this once before on here a while ago.

Same. “Congratulations” rubbish that then redirects you to a page that I can’t get back from without closing the browser. Only happens if I’m not logged in and attempt to access the forums
 
Just had an ad trying to use my current location on iPhone. Never seen it before so assumed it was quite dodgy.

Something like ads.adaxim in the URL.

If you see it again can you screenshot it and share? Thanks.
 
Since last few days, I am getting pop up ads on my mobile when I am on home page and try to scroll. I don't get it on any sub-forum link but only when on redcafe.net. Android phone, chrome browser.

Can you send me screenshots and the URLs you’re redirected to please?

If you are using an android phone, the only solution I've suggested to another user (not sure who I replied to, was it you?) which may work, is to reset your ID and opt out of interest based adverts:

Code:

If you are on iphone something similar exists, which may work:

Code:

You can disable personalised adverts on your google account following the instructions here:

Code:
https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=en-GB

Note that it might be easier to search for some of these settings, as some settings get moved around depending on what version you have.

If all of this doesn't work, I suggest carrying out the advice above, and then browse the web with Firefox installed and the uBlock origin extension to block ads:
Code:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/

When you visit redcafe, you can disable the blocking of adverts (which support the site) by following the instructions below. In essence, you just press the big power button and it will turn grey. Thats it:
Code:
https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/How-to-whitelist-a-web-site

The purpose of using the advert blocker, in this case, is to identify whether its an advert on redcafe causing you issues, or an advert from another site which is "corrupting" your advert ID.
 
Having a similar issue.

I keep getting redirected without warning to a spam site anytime I click something.

It makes the site unusable on mobile. Also on iPhone
This happens to me on my Galaxy S8 using Chrome. It isn't an iPhone only issue.
 
Getting adds for fake Viagra at the moment, including boobs picture. Bit low-brow for the Cafe. Not sure what it says about my internet history :nervous:.
 
I'm getting an ad at the bottom of the screen which seems more intrusive than the usual stuff on here.

I'm on Chrome for Android and it seems to be laid over the top of the screen rather than set in under the banner like the usual ones and is for "Gala Bingo" or "Tires at Walmart.com" neither of which would have come from my browser history!

Yeah also getting a banner ad at the bottom. Chrome for iPhone
 
I’m getting a pop out banner with a bunch on different adds. Using iPhone and safari.
