Forums - Website Topics - Got redirected to a porn site from VGChartz

Yeah I've had the porn site pop up once on mobile - but the SFW ads are extremely annoying....

I'd say ~ 1 out of every 4-6 pages I get a pop up or redirect that takes me to a completely different site; I then try to click back and it brings me back 2 pages instead of 1.

I used to randomly get adds that would open the google play store for some stupid game including but not limited to candy crush.

Mine redirected to the "date with women" site from VGChartz.



I wonder if ioi is aware of how absolutely BULLSHIT the ads are.



Watch me stream games and hunt trophies on my Twitch channel!

With how common the threads are bringing up issues with the ads, specifically on mobile, I can't help but think SOMEBODY has told him. At this point I'm not entirely convinced that he cares with all due respect to the guy. For months this has gotten worse and worse and I think we've heard one actual response from site admins (which was recently, for a VGC paid subscription which happens to remove ads).



You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt!  I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading.  After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!

It's also done it for me, its fucking annoying

Never got directed to porn sites but I once got directed to a porn app lol. That was a few years ago, too.



You're welcome.



The problem is that you are trying to use VG Chartz on your mobile phone. Go PC or don't go at all.

Saying you have to use a pc for VGC... now that brings the whole pc master race thing to a whole new douchey level ;).



Mobile version has become unusable for me, certain threads redirect to other sites, and about half the time it is pornography.
