Basically when I try to get on TiBB with 4G It redirects me to like a pop up spammy thing.
Only happens when trying to access TiBB.
Perfectly fine on wifi, anyone else had this problem?
Only noticed it over the last 2 weeks.

Setting > Safari > Advanced > Turn off JavaScript
that will stop it, so use that until James has sorted it.

Can you send me a screenshot of the pop-up when it happens, and also say what time it happened.
So I can get this stopped.

This is a good defense against much of the web tbf if you're not using an ad blocker...

Turning off JavaScript will break things on a lot of websites.
Turning off JavaScript will break things on a lot of websites.
Some yes which is why it should be fairly toggable. Most websites though are designed to be fairly usable even without javascript support. There are still plenty of people in country's/areas with metered/slow connections that use browsers such as Opera Mini on mobile with limited support who may require access and they may have no/limited JS support. The problem is not JS, but that most JS scripts are not written with accessibility in mind and this can give some people a hard time, especially when using things like screen readers... ads usually being the culprit, but I have run into design issues on bigger websites that were resolved simply by turning off JS. (like article websites, not CMSes or social networks like Facebook).
I turned off adblocker once for basic surfing to help support fledging outfits but noticed my browser would periodically crash because of poorly written scripts... so now I just white list per site... but on mobile I stop most bad JS scripts by way of using "reading mode" in my browser which stops the scripts and loads the text by itself (which is all that I would need anyway)... there are so many buggy scripts, even on some of the bigger sites.... but I digress.
I Turned Off JavaScript for a Whole Week and It Was Glorious

For me whenever I use 4G if I open a thread with a new post in it, it will only show me up till the last post I read (as if nothing changed) and I'll have to refresh to see the new post :conf:

As I asked before could you send me a screenshot of the pop-up, or post it in the thread.
I need the time you saw it also.

Correct

Okay, thanks for that. I have two examples of the pop-ups now from Arista and Jordan. I'll send those to the ad supplier, and hopefully get the pop-ups blocked.
I've turned off the forum adverts for now on iOS and Android devices, so you shouldn't get the pop-ups now.
