Recently, while browsing threads on this site with my iPhone, I've be getting forcefully moved to spam sites with ads or to the App Store. And it happens a lot, like every few minutes. I can't even post without it changing pages, so I have to write my post as a text, then copy and paste it. But I don't have this happen on any other websites, just MTGSally. Has this been happening to anyone else and if so, have you found a solution to it?

I have been getting the same thing, usually getting redirected to buy a game or some clothing app in the App Store, or being redirected to different random sites (for example, one for a Dr. Oz Miracle Cure this evening). It only happens to me every so often, and I am generally not one to complain about too much, but it does get somewhat old after awhile.

I third this issue as I was just going to create a thread about it. I understand that ads are a necessary evil, but I'm wondering if there is a way to remove these auto pop ads from selection. These are the ads that I always fine on facebook spam posts and I've always completely backed out of whatever it was I was reading because it just seems unsafe.
This is happening to me too. I have been forced to stop using MTG Salvation on my phone (iPhone 4s). This also just started happening on my computer. It is sending me to lemode-mgz.com . Every time I go to a page on either of those devices, it sends me to a pop-up site full of random ***** that I do not care about. The only reason why I am able to post this is because I had to click several times to stop it from loading. It also once sent me something saying that I was the 1000th visitor of the day to a site that it redirected me to that blocked my screen completely unless if I clicked on it, forcing me to turn off my phone and then exit from the site before my phone connected to 3G. This should not be happening, and if it does not stop I am leaving this site until it is fixed.
This problem has made mtgs completely unusable for me.
Which is sad as this used to be a nice site.
Every time I come here within 3 seconds I get redirected to the App Store, and it closes all of my safari windows. If I manually got back to mtgs, it simply does it again, redirecting to App Store (to apps like uber or gilt) within seconds. I used to visit mtgs daily, and I haven't been on since before christmas.
Since it's impossible for me to ever view a couple lines of txt on any various mtgs page, I don't come here anymore (I only visit on my iphone 5s running ios 7.something). If this ever gets fixed could a mod kindly PM me, I'd like to use the site again.
Not just iPhone users. My S4 periodically redirects to Google play store and triea to get me to download stupid apps. Only happens on mtgs and is somewhat random, sometimes it doesn't happen at all and sometimes it's relentless until I close out of chrome and reopen. Again, I only experience this on mtgs and it's really, really annoying.

After some research, I have found that this is caused by web ads that are redirecting mobile users. There are a few sites that describe the code involved that I could link if that would be helpful.
Honestly though, we should contact the company that chooses our ads and give them a talking to.
This is the site:

Is anyone out there?
