The jumpiness due to the ads is out of control!

It's not that complicated of a fix but I'm not sure it's much of a priority. It's simply the as software used to generate additional money so for each redirect or app screen it's a payment. Should be racking up the ad revenue at this point.

It's better today for me - anyone else?

Yeah.....better....sort of. I'm no longer getting that big white area jump into and out of. But still getting a little twitch when trying to click on a thread. And, I've noticed a couple of times, when I'm replying to a post the screen jumps down to that trio of ads at the bottom and I can't scroll back up to the reply window. I have use the cursor on the bar on the right to drag the page back to the reply window.

My problems (Apple) was completely being redirected. Yesterday at one point it was so bad I couldn't really even be on the boards. So far today, only one redirect. MUCH improvement!

I'm on an iPad air & am so sick & tired of being redirected somewhere else. Horrible today!!

Hmmm...interesting that people are having such different experiences. :confused3

It seems to be a little better today but still not completely fixed. Thanks to tech support for addressing this problem.

I've been experiencing both the twitches and redirects for a while now ... and have had both happen in the 5 mins or so I've been on here today.

I know the webmasters are working the issue, so thanks, guys, for your continued patience.

I came to this forum to lodge a similar complaint, so I wasn't surprised to see a thread already exists. I am surprised to see people saying it is getting better! I am almost completely unable to view the site from my iPhone due to the malware/redirects. I miss the crappy, super slow, old DISboards app!

MudBud · Oct 11, 2015

I thought it was just me too - a problem with my iPhone or iPad. On my computer it seems ok but then I'm hardly ever on my computer.

Nohal · Oct 13, 2015

Maybe it is a little better for me as I am on my laptop not a phone.

I get it on my laptop.

Although it seems a little better today. And many of the spots where ads would be (top of thread list, and the trio at the bottom) seem to have a 404 error message in them today.

Have I mentally adjusted to the jumps and lag time or is it actually better? It seems better today.

TigrLvsPooh · Oct 18, 2015

The redirects are only happening for me on my iPhone and iPad. When I'm on my desktop computer the main problem is the screen jumping and scrolling down for no particular reason.

Eeyore's My Favorite · Oct 18, 2015

My iPhone is a jumpy mess today. Hate it. Leaving for WDW tm & I always like to read the Dis & post but this is driving me bonkers!!

cluvsdisney · Oct 25, 2015

The jumping around was a tiny bit better for a few days but it's getting bad again.

Uncleromulus · Oct 29, 2015

Not only jumpiness but when I try to type it misses whole words along with individual letters.

No such problems on any other sites.

See the letters 2-3 seconds after I type them--

I came here to express dismay about the same issue, from a different perspective. Since I live in the boonies, my only internet is 4G LTE. I get good speed, but I'm limited to 5GB per month. In the last month or two, DISboards has taken up SOO much bandwidth (due to these same ads) that I'm now going over my limit. Result -- I don't dare read these boards from home any more. Still read them at work for now, but I'm about to become an ex-DISer over this issue. Please fix this. Thanks.

Plain grey will be fine

Grand events should not go unnoticed
