I'm not even sure what Tapatalk is, but I'm sure that it's some hipster shit.

Nuke it!

On the issue of "board problems."

I use Google as a search engine.  I don't have Village BBS forum bookmarked.  I just google "villagebbs forum," and click the first one.  For the last few months clicking on the link results into a redirection to some spam "you are a winner" site...  Not sure if related.  This has happened repeatedly on Chrome, and also Safari (on iPad).

Yeah I don't have any control over what google gives you.

On mine it's #1, so your browser may be compromised:



Honestly it would be better to bookmark the site, that way you know you aren't going to the wrong site.

Google provides the same,   But when I click on link it appears that it gets redirected.  My first thought is javascript injection into VillageBBS.

I thought about virus, but the fact that it has happened on two devices (different OS) with different browsers leads me to think not.  If it happens again I will try to get some additional info.

i think it's on your end. i can't replicate any redirects, used firefox, explorer, edge, chrome, and opera.

safari hasn't been updated in 5 years for a mac. 10 years for windows.

run malwarebytes. and install adblock on chrome.

We don't have a virus especially now with a complete fresh install, that's definitely something on your end.

Yes per above Tapatalk hasn't been added back yet.

I'm slowly adding our mods back and seeing how that goes. Tapatalk will be the last one to be added back, probably by Thursday or Friday.

On chrome I run both Adblock and uBlock origin.
Playing around today I can no longer get the redirect.

Just out of curiosity, when was the reinstall?

Thanks for all your hard work on this!

I have had similar problems at my job, where a database will run amuck and there isn’t any ONE thing to blame (Well except The Gremlins!)

But I DO hope you can add back in Tapatalk!
