While stupid bannings and reinstatement of belligerent trolls are all part if day to day normalcy here, I'd like to point out yet AGAIN to the powers that be, that BBI links DIRECTLY either to porn or more often, to some stupid jelly or dragon game in the App Store . It's been brought up several times with no resolution. It does this with every single click unless an ad blocker is used. Chrome has not solved the issue.

For those having the problem on BBI, it might help to take the occasional screen shot before you click on something to try to catch the likely offending ad(s) before it redirects you. Once you are redirected a screen shot will be of little use. You'll have a number of meaningless screen shots to just delete later, but you may also catch the problem in the act. Email what you find please to Eric.

I can appreciate that it's a widespread problem on the web, but it only happens to me when I come to BBI. also, there's no way to capture a screenshot as I get redirected within seconds of coming to the corner forum - before I click on a thread. so even if I could get a screenshot in that two second window, it'd just be a shot of the corner forum.
