Our ad policy does not permit auto playing audio or auto expanding ads. To report an ad, follow these steps:

1. Right click the ad (or just below if you can't right click it) and choose "Inspect" (img)

2. In the dev tools window, scroll up so that as much of the code before the highlighted line is visible (img). Expand any collapsed lines if necessary.

3. Link a screenshot of the ad, a description of the problem and a screenshot of the dev tools window in this thread.

yeah I'm getting some bullshit redirect to lemode-mgz every now and then. I scanned my comp to make sure it wasn't on my end, then googled the problem and apparently it's something wrong with adsense, if people on other sites are right about this issue.

For now, putting adblock back on TL solved the issue, but I'm hoping whatever it is gets fixed soon.

Keep getting redirected to http://lemode-mgz.com/ with a million jumble letters after that.

Scrubbed my cookies etc. and restarted, but it's still happening. There's some sketchy shit going down on TL.

I installed adblock today just because of this. I will gladly uninstall it when this gets fixed.

Does anyone get that little bar of an ad on their phones when they visit TL, it sticks on the page and when u scroll it follows the scroll so that it always blocks the bottom section of the screen and even if u manage to hit the tiny tiny X button the ad reappearings once u visiting a new tl page or refresh it.
The ads change as well its but its never not shown itself on my phone

Thanks R1CH, you're the best!

For the record, I disabled my adblock on TL again.

I'm still getting the lemode-mgz ads. Is it only fixed with Chrome?

Hmm, they said it was supposedly fixed on the 9th. Maybe they didn't deploy it due to the weekend.

Had some redirects yesterday again, mostly on the list of Changes pending review on LP2.

Okay so, whenever I visit any TL page, I get a really annoying hidden ad. I can't see it but it automatically plays an audio clip. Like, a really long one. It starts off with some guy saying "WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP!" and then the guys start talking about some story of them popping a zit or something wtf.

Getting these same issues as stated earlier, constantly redirected to lemode.mgz.com over half the time I've tried to load TL it just sends me there. Very obnoxious D:

I actually just got this too after coming to the thread haha

I'm using ie at work with no adblock though, no idea if it has anything to do with that. I've not seen it on my comp (I use chrome)

Google seem awfully slow at cleaning up these spammers unfortunately. I block the ads but they just put new ones up under a new account, it's like playing whack-a-mole. The latest ones should be blocked for now.

I half wonder if it would be more effective to DDoS them...

If you're still getting these redirects, as a workaround you can try adding this to your hosts file:

127.0.0.1 ebay300.wan-tracker.com
127.0.0.1 ebay320.wan-tracker.com
127.0.0.1 ebay728.wan-tracker.com

A couple of days ago I started to get this problem where Liquipedia was loading very slowly. I decided to try to use adblock and it made LP work normal again for me. Does it also have anything to do with these ads?

The server was under heavy load the last few days, because we are changing a few central templates and purging the cache to make the changes visible. Maybe this is what you are feeling at the moment.
