A Silent, Solo Individual
Hello mates.
Here's what's been going on. Lately, the forums have not been working for me. What happens is that the forums does nothing but redirect me to these "health and fitness" websites...
Apparently, I've discovered that this only happens whenever I use my home IP address (I'm using a different IP while typing this thread). I don't fully know why this is happening, but my theory is that some moron has discovered that I'm online on this forum most of the time, has tracked my IP, and is now redirecting to those websites. Until this is fixed, I'm not going to touch the forums. I have sent @VashX a PM about this, but knowing him, it will probably take a while till he responds. Hopefully, it might solve this problem if I'm not online for a long time. Don't worry however. I'll still be able to chat with you all on Kik. Just in case you don't know my username on Kik, here it is: Gavwav_kik
Just in case before I go, I want you all to know that this forum has really grown in my heart. I've made friends with some of the best people I've ever met on the internet. I also hope that this problem doesn't occur permanently. it saddens me that I'm having to leave. That being said, thank you all for your time with me on this forum. Wishing this forum and all of you all the best.

*EDIT* Can a mod move this to the "member departure" section? I accidently posted this on the "New member introductions" section.
*UPDATE* I've now discovered that the forums STILL redirects me to some random site even when I'm using a different IP (Though, it happens a lot more when using my own IP) So that proves that the problem hasn't anything to do with the IP.
*UPDATE* I don't want to speak to soon, but for the past 2 hours I've been on the forums, I havn't been redirected to any other site whatsoever! My chances of staying appear to be 75%.
*UPDATE* So apparently, the problem where I was getting redirected to random sites hasn't happened to me for the past few days whatsoever. Now that it appears the problem has stopped, I'll of course be able to stay on the forums.
