Over the years I've had to deal with server issues whilst in France, Italy, Germany, Canada and Belgium and they weren't work trips! 😁

Then stop publishing your itinerary! Show off.

OK, we'll try again.

 

There's been further investigation and we're trying something else out.

 

You should see model railway adverts and maybe some adverts relating to other publications/websites in the Warners group (example below)  but not ads served from Google and (very hopefully) nothing dodgy.

Do let me know in here if you see anything untoward. As before if you do see any issues please let me know via this topic ideally with the following information...

 

  • The time/date when it has occurred.
  • The url of the RMweb page you were using.
  • A screenshot of what you are seeing.
  • Which browser, operating system and device was in use when this occurred.

Now I keep on getting a screen saying my Internet access is blocked, probably by my Firewall or anti-virus software.

 

I have to backspace my screen with the left arrow in the top left to get rid of it and continue

We're scurrying round trying to find a few things but the likelihood is that it will be switched back (again) soon.

Maybe it's just affecting PCs?

 

Reports have come through from table/mobile users too.

Right; another attempt. I've switched everyone back. Please let me know if anything untoward occurs.

Mind you the only ads I'm seeing (with blockers turned off) are Warner's, have Google ads. been switched back on?

 

Edit: that serves me right, I'm seeing Taylor Swift ads. now.

They should be but I'll get clarification. However, as a Premium user you shouldn't be seeing those programmatic Google ads.

I'm not logged in on my 'tethered goat' machine, so I was expecting Google ads. I'm seeing hotels.com and Vrbo ads. now so think I'm getting the full 'unblocked' experience.

I'll try the Kiss of Death test now...

 

It's looking like it may be sorted.
