Does anybody else ever have their last login show a time when you weren't logged in? I'm logged in several times a day to the site...even though I never visited the page. So now, if I click on "view unread" it obviously takes me to a spot in the thread that is way newer than when I actually did log in last. If I don't actually get on the site for a day a two, I also miss a ton of new and unread threads in my User CP. It's been going on for a week or two, and it happened before a year or two ago. Very frustrating.

Are you positive you are not logged in on multiple devices?

Two things:

1. I'm still seeing banner ads at the bottom of every thread page, even though I'm supposed to be ad-free as a varsity club member.

2. The ads I'm seeing are all for a thread called "Thread of avi babes that everyone should see..but can't due to size" and it's going to get me fired.

Same here, though I guess that's what I get for being a poors and not paying for varsity.

Sounds like a personal problem.

Wait, how does one become a varsity member, and quite frankly if it involves cash why would anyone do it given the fact you still get ads?

Adblock Plus or GTFO

Some people are never more than bench strength.

I don't get no stinkin' ads.

Not everyone can download software at work. There are some of us commie pinkos that put restrictions in place.

So I spent quite a while checking to see if there is anything on my end that I can do to switch off ads for Varsity members, but its nothing that I can see.

Have you tried contacting Jason Pham? He can get in touch with the owners unlike me. It may have been a feature they got rid of because they were not making enough ad revenue, but I really do not know. Seems unfair that you would buy the membership under the guise that you would no longer have ads but then still be getting ads.

The ad free experience works in most cases. The home page is completely ad free, so I don't see the top banner ad or the side panel ad that non-paying member see. The only spot I see the ads is when I'm viewing an individual thread. The ads appear at the bottom of the page under the quick reply box.

Now I'm getting one to "Meet Sexy African Women," I'm guessing because I've been reading Black Panther articles.

Wiz if I'm fired for these ads, I'm moving to Bristol. Clear your guest room just in case

Perfect timing, that's what we spent last weekend doing. Moved the guest bed out of the baby's room and converted the office into a new guest room.

We also have a full suite in the basement... Queen bed, full bathroom, and kitchenette. That way you can keep your privacy.

IE acting funny for anyone else today?

Slow loading times? Not loading at all at some points? Quote functions not operating properly? Lagging in general?

I've got all of the above so far. Sometimes the site server can't be reached. Sometimes the site seems to load properly, but then threads take forever to load. When the threads load, the quote functions aren't working.

I could not access the website today until now. I'm guessing it was a server issue.

Everything is fine for me now...at least so it seems.

It was acting that way this morning around 7:00. As Beau said, probably the server acting up. Just reboot to clear the memory and keep on rolling.

It's all good for me now.

Just wanted to make sure it wasn't an issue on my end. In the past, I've had issues where my ISP can't reach IE's server for several days at a time for some reason, while other posters don't have the same issue.

Since I last updated my phone I am now getting the insecure website notification at login. This seems to be on the websites end for not using secure login protocol. Can the site update this?

I was robbed!

I was robbed!

Sunday I was supposed to get a vbank interest payment but didn't get it.

The text at the bottom of my account said, " next payment of 801,428,157,403,721.62 Cash". I didn't get a penny of it. The stated time for that payment came and went with no difference in the account balance. And now 36 hours later it still says my "next payment of 801,428,157,403,721.62 Cash" will be paid in about 12 hours.

Russian oligarchs manipulating the vBank?

Unions skimming more than just Obamacare subsidiaries?

Who does handle the sextillion or more vbucks in the vaults of IrishEnvy?

"Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?"


Can I get the missing 801,428,157,403,721.62 payment credited to my account?


My 401K isn't what it used to be.

Is it just me or is IE destroying anyone else's CPU? Within seconds of opening IE my laptop starts overheating like I'm rendering 4k video or something.

It's also been ultra laggy on mobile.

No? You running pop-up blocker? Maybe you're getting some ads. Does it do it on any other site?

Whoh....immediately after I left this page I got a pop up that Kaspersky Protection blocked a Dangerous URL on this site. Said it was apparently a phishing URL pointed to: thaitradeusa.com

http://www.[insert site above]/home/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Tuff-girls-line.jpg

I don't suggest going to that location for obvious reasons, but maybe it'll help the mods track down what ad is linked to it?

When I open a window to repy I kept getting Website NOT SECURE. I'm getting that advisory right now. I first noticed it yesterday.

In all the years I've been on IE, I've never seen that before.

Can we make it secure?

I've got the same thing, now that you mention it.

The security certificate has expired. Someone forgot to renew.

had the same thing for a while.
also, about the same time, the site would not allow cursor placement and typing (mostly in PM). A quick close of google and reopen cures it, but still a bit of a pain. Happens at no other site.
