Yep, essentially can't use the site on my phone anymore due to this issue, and I mostly use my phone for this site. Disappointing because it's playoff season/beginning offseason.

Other sites I've had the problem with appeared to have fixed it by now.

Same. Cannot browse the site with Safari and Chrome. Had to break our Firefox just to be able to post this.

Thanks for the tip. Working nicely on Firefox. It’s a shame we have to go through all that though.

It's been a long time since I've even tried going on here with mobile. At least a year back, a porn pop-up came up, and since then I have never once gone on the site without an ad-blocker. Sorry.

When I go to bulls.realgm.com, the entire browser freezes on my smart iPhone. I have to surf directly to the forum's URL for it to not crash my system.

Adding my voice to this. I really can't browse RealGM on my phone anymore. I urge the admins to do something about it because it seems to be hitting a lot of people and ultimately having a site be unbrowsable on mobile is pretty much a death sentence in 2018.

Dear RealGM admins--have you read this thread? Could you please give us an update about whether or not you are planning to do something about this issue?

I never received it.

I've passed this issue on to the appropriate people.

Constantly underwhelmed by the Bulls.

It’s happening more again.

Don’t have these problems on any other site I browse on my phone.

Happened twice while reading one page of this thread. No redirects from any other site...
