The only problem I have with the site is the deleted comment glitch...I hope there is a way to fix that.

what glitch? That's not a bug, that's a feature: if a user deletes a comment other than the last one of the page, an empty entry stays.
Otherwise sometimes people seem to talk alone or a reply can be mis-interpreted because it does not apply any more to the same post as intended.

If the deleted comment was really useless and does not cause problem for the rest of the page, admins can delete them for good (I do that sometimes when noticing deleted comments).

I had those earlier in the month, nearly all the time. They expanded automatically and moved the rest of the page downwards.

I just had an ad on the new comments page redirect me to http://mmofreegames.online/wot/choose/index.html?sd=1&camp=9b2d448b-693d-4c0e-aa42-3ef52da5b3b7&voluumdata=deprecated&eda=deprecated&cep=q8XgnQ5QFCP3y-gggGS2YPRI0xtQehrRn5wpjTRVQCj_Xn38EXAkRPzNF1k5asoOwpfwJUuAMIr4xGtuj6hxoThcvQQOg- m6ugXB8fiM_XFccqO5XLhDwe0zh-tF4buRo4CejvIwjmY4XvJTPrhfuH7GrqkUC4l73zNjWpxmcuBfpP9GQEdkxCt9km45O16aXQrCp7lPN- 3q_bs6rXBAY74oJWqAcmLLV1Q4oA--qLLPBQ4X8JonnLvv2ypEAFIlruRkCEm0g3WC9e0LoFTzm5rQ&partner_id=1367&placement=1367-b3766a67&payout={payout}&subid=6553286384726050773

I don't know what the offending ad was because I had scrolled down the page.

Thanks, I'll report that

On which kind of device did you encounter the problem ? Ipad/tablet, phone, computer ?

Did you switch ad providers again? Ads are gumming up the site for me. Videos ads are slowing everything down, especially if I try to open multiple pages (which I do for validating)

I'm going to amend this, it could be my end. My habit is to view with the ancient IE, when I use Chrome, it is not slow. I need to get into the habit of using Chrome for the site (I still prefer IE Bookmarks over Chrome or Firefox)

Does the revenue come from views or clicks alone?
I disable Adblock for this site so it displays the ads, but if you actually have to click on them I guess that's pointless.

I didn't do any change in the ads lately

Revenue is per view

Been redirected twice today on my iPad to site nm.advertising.xyz

I've reported it; it is strange that these seem to happen only on ipad

They say they could reproduce the problem and thus blocked the culprit.
Lets hope it was the only provider of such bad ads.

That's good to know. I wasn't sure if I remembered the address correctly.

Site seems to be wobbling a bit tonight:
Warning: mysqli::__construct(): (HY000/2002): No such file or directory in /var/www/imcdb/config_connection.php on line 11 Database connection error

Probably when I rebooted the server due to a connectivity problem in ipv6, but the problem is still there (though that I guess it does not affect visitors it seems, since nobody complained since the 30h that the problem is there)

The browser hijack ads have come back in the last few days. I had one a few minutes ago.

if you can provide some more info I can report it
(time, your browser, pc or tablet, source page, target site, ip address if different from the one you use here on the forum, ...)
