RPGWatch Updates, Bug reports and Feature requests

Hello.

When you edit a post and there was a +1 from a user, let's say a Potato user, it gets deleted.

Edit : Now it's back. But has it really disapeared? Only the powers that be can verify… I might have hallucinated everything too excited because of the sales going on and those about to begin…

Just push the refresh button of your browser and it will be back.

Yeah I think it's a bug in the forum software. I had posts disappear, and then reappear on refresh as HiddenX said above. Thanks for the sale info.

Anyone else get a malware warning when visiting rpgwatch.com?

The site ahead contains malware

I think I had a Kaspersky window popping up yesterday. But it vanished again faster than I was able to read it.

I warned Myrthos a few days back about the problem. It turns out mediarpg is the site that does our ads. I don''t know if he checked it yet though.

It is strange, as in the webmaster tools of Google the site is not listed as having any security issues nor on https://www.stopbadware.org

I get the malware message as well.

I didn't until this morning.

Anyway, other than that, I found this website, which gives tips on how to improve your website.

Also it adds a site valuation. Apparently your site is worth $53,265

I am getting a warning from google as well

"Google Safe Browsing recently detected malware on www.rpgwatch.com. Websites that are normally safe are sometimes infected with malware. The malicious content comes from www.mediarpg.com, a known malware distributor."

I just got it as well.

I can't find anything wrong with it. For now I upgraded it to the latest version of the ads software, changed the passwords and asked Google to verify it again, so it can be removed from the black list.
No clue as to how it got on that list though.

Did you temporarily remove the ad ? it looks so empty without it

No, the new ad code just isn't working on the forums

Same problem here, the worst thing abou it all is that i cant read my favorite site at work

Yep, tried to acces the page from work today and it was blocked out completely.

Avast! Free Antivirus blocks RPGWatch as well. I wonder what's going on.

As mentioned in a previous post, it is listed on Google as serving malware. A review is in process to get it unlisted. Takes a maximum of 24 hours.

Lately the spyware people tend to pay to show their malicious infected advertisements through the regular ad companies. Mediarpg might have been temporary blocked if such thing has slipped through their nets ?

Mediarpg is part of our server. There is no malware on it. I went through it anyway and changed passwords to be sure. I don't know what triggered this. We only ran the GOG ads and none of the links were infected.
Perhaps it was something silly as me forgetting to remove the ads for games that were removed by GOG and the links linking to the wrong pages.

At this moment rpgwatch.com has been reviewed and was found to be clean. Waiting on mediarpg to be cleared.
