OK, it's been going on month's now, at random times, and during random posts, I click the back button, and nothing happens. I then click the drop down menu to go back and I get 100's of these!?!??! Happens at work and at home.

Is this some attempt to fake more traffic through this site or something?

I end up having to click on the forum link just to get back to perusing posts.

Anyone getting this? It's a bit irritating.

I've had troubles with the the "back" arrow not working since I joined but do not see those messages in my drop down menu afterwards.

Agreed ... backbutton works sporadically lately so I now use the sub-menus at the bottom of each page ...
 
I'm no expert, but something might be wrong if we can't use the back button on here but the site automatically changes the word cock to rooster. Just sayin.

Exhibit A: My original post had a different word for the 1st rooster yet I had to hit the Home button to get back to this thread.

I've never gotten a single pop-up ad here. If I am correct, you need to find a way to keep "cookies" clear.

There are absolutely no pop-ups run on this site. What os and browser are you using?

its just me then. i have a old lp with ie on it and just don't care much about it. i chat post from my phone a lot so between that and my lack of a couple keys on the lp its my usual slang grammar...seems like i have a pop up issue tho. it happens randomly which is weird. it happened when i clicked on things for this site and a few others but not on some other sites...hmm
 
I've had several ad redirects when I've tried to navigate a page. I'm using Chrome, but it has nothing to do with the browser - there are a ton of agents on the pages and occasionally, one of them is bound to do something it probably shouldn't.

I'm also getting a huge number of Mitt Romney ads which make me laugh given the Cesspool bent.

One quirk in this script is it tends to jump as its loading. If you click a post or forum link before the full page loads, sometimes the ad gets clicked by mistake.
 
At work, Windows XP IE 7, at home Win 7 64bit IE 8. I don't get any pop ups, it's just that the back button has 100's of these in it's history. It's really annoying.
