on Safari for iPhone. I cleared the data/cache/history/tabs. The first time I log into the boneyard I get 5 popups and get sent to the AppStore. It's getting out of hand
 
Same issue here. The boneyard is basically inaccessible on the iPhone. I installed an adblocking app, which resolves the issue, but it drains the battery.

Someone posted this on my skype account. It may work here somehow maybe?

So the new update for Skype was driving me nuts. So I disabled the Advertisements..... Evil Me

1. Open-up the control panel.
2. Open-up "Network & Internet" then "Internet Options".
3. Go to the "Security" tab.
4. Click on the "Restricted Sites" icon, then the "Sites" button below it.
5. Type "https://apps.skype.com/" (without the quotes) into the text box and click "Add"
6. Close and apply the changes.
7. Restart Skype.
8. ???
9. Profit!

Not sure if that's sarxasm but is that for mobile?
 
I can no longer access the boneyard from my iPhone, get kicked off to the app store within seconds.
 
I just got a pop up saying that the site isn't responsible for content, which may be offensive. Lingering effect from the Senor T mojo run?
 
This doesn't sound like a site issue. It sounds like an i-Phone problem. It is not happening on my Samsung (Android). Has Apple recently updated it's software?
 
I regularly check the mobile boneyard site from my iPhone 6 with no issues whatsoever.
 
Posted it in the Suggestions, Comments, Questions, etc.
forum and Tremery will stop google adsense from showing up on your phone(which pops up the random apps).

This is what Temery posted in an email. I'm sure he can set you guys all up. You will have to be signed in all times of course.

"I removed ads from your style, for now. You should be all set.

Its a known issue with Google adsense, that they can't seem to fix."
 
This has also helped on my work computer also as this site was getting adblock errors from time to time where it would block out the site entirely. What a pain.
 
temery must have fixed my profile. This was happening to me on the iphone until I posted a thread about it. Now when I visit the site is very generic looking. None of the Boneyard formatting or anything. Better than the pop-ups.
 
I've been reading the BY via the forum runner app on my iPhone 5 for roughly a year and haven't seen a single add.
 
Been having this same issue which started probably 2 weeks ago. Cant use the site on my phone anymore only on my laptop
