Wiki Redirects
« on: January 10, 2015, 05:51:57 pm »

I saw a post on the Dwarf Fortress subreddit complaining about this, so I thought I'd clear things up. The wiki is redirecting some people, including me, to lemode-mgz.com (don't go there!). If you google "lemode-mgz redirect" you'll get a bunch of forum topics about it. This effects any site using google ads.

From what I gather, some google ad or ads have are causing it. It doesn't effect everyone due to the way adsense works. I've been trying to track down the specific ad but it's tricky.

For now I've installed adblock and I haven't had any problems.

(I don't know if this is where I should put this post, but It effects the wiki.)

This should now be fixed! Thanks for the heads up.
