Slight Issue

So obviously I don't keep this website open all day, so I gotta reopen it I'm too lazy to just type in the https://, so I just look it up so I can get the https:// version of the site Only problem with that is, sometimes, when I do that, I get generic virus website number 82. Obviously I click out before it can load, but that's beside the point. Any chance that you could fix this, Mishima? Would be good in general for old and new users.

it'd probably be good for you to just bookmark this site using the history setting on your phone or whatever you use. Mish can't exactly control what other people make websites for, so there's not much he can do besides, well, what I'm doing right now.

Fair point, but for newcomers to the phansite this may end up being an issue for them, which is why I decide to bring it up

Get malwarebytes to check it out, it used to happen to me

Ina

What's Malwarebytes?

Micah

Free anti malware software, it worked for me. But yeah those phishing scams will follow you to certain sites with ads. Quite annoying.

I've had that happen like once or twice, I think. I'm no web designer so I can't speak for the technical side of things; I can never seem to get it to come up on purpose, so it doesn't seem to be particularly common. I don't think there's much that needs to be done about it.

I was actually gonna post an update saying it hasn't happened a lot lately, but you already did that. So yeah it may have just been a glitch, but still kinda weird that it happened in the first place.
