It's happening again, like it did with the Dragon City ads, only this time it's 'Empire of Kingdoms' and I think one called something like 'Game of War'. It's just happened on 3 pages in a row.

I'm on the mobile site on Safari on iPhone on iOS 7.0.

Sorry everyone, thanks flagging these up to us again. Hmm
We've stopped them for now.

Womnaleplus · 17/12/2013 08:05

Arrrrrggggghhhh

So freaking annoying! Sort it out please, ASAP.

SconeForAStroll · 17/12/2013 08:02

Right, that is enough. It is now loading even when I am scrolling through tio.

Cake Wine please sort it out tech.

Yes dragon city this time. Iphone users if you disable installing apps in the settings menu it turns the App Store off which prevents the ads from opening, not a long term solution I know but it does mean you can continue to use the mobile site until tech fix the issue

EmpressOfTheWellOfLostPlots · 17/12/2013 07:58

I'm having it with Dragon City and Expedia. Also iPhone 4, mobile site.

Aftereightsarenolongermine · 17/12/2013 07:51

Please sort this - I've posted in 3 different threads about it - it's annoying me that much. I don't want dragon city - I will not buy you!!

TheOneWithTheHair · 17/12/2013 07:37

Me too.

archfiend · 17/12/2013 07:35

Happening here too - Dragon City as well. Really annoying. Am on iphone 4, iOS 7.

OutOfCheeseError · 17/12/2013 07:34

Same here - bloody Dragon City. MN is effectively unusable...still, I might get some work done! Please sort it though tech Smile

NoComet · 17/12/2013 07:32

Dragon city again when I hit post.
Tech I know it's nearly Christmas, but please

gamerchick · 17/12/2013 07:32

I'm really glad it's not just me.

SconeForAStroll · 17/12/2013 07:31

Dragon city here too. :(

NoComet · 17/12/2013 07:31

Dragon city, three times on this thread, once on another
Another iPhone 4S user.

Doesn't matter if you're login in or not.

MN logging out is another irritation

danceponydance · 17/12/2013 07:29

I've been getting this for ages on my Galaxy S4, I thought it was something dodgy on my phone.

Lorelailovesluke · 17/12/2013 07:28

Happening with me too, Dragon city

Masterchuff · 17/12/2013 07:25

Happening again with me and dragon city too. Please get it sorted

thenicknameiwantedisgone · 17/12/2013 07:19

Yes dragon city here too. It is exceedingly annoying and would stop me using mn at all if it continues.

Please please sort it.

LaurenLaverne · 17/12/2013 07:19

Doing it now! Dragon City 5 times in 2 minutes! Grr

HungryHorace · 17/12/2013 07:10

It's awful. Every time I change page or refresh I'm back at the App Store. It's driving me mad, and did the other day too with a different game doing the same thing.

MNHQ, please sort it out as it's annoying and unnecessary.

lucidlady · 17/12/2013 07:06

Dragon city here too.

CoffeeandCakes · 17/12/2013 07:03

Dragon City is particularly bad, but I've also had Betwin (which downloaded an apk file bwinlive.apk), an Asian dating app! and other games open up the Play store.

Eastpoint · 17/12/2013 07:00

Dragon City - 3 times when trying to post on this thread alone. Will have to get up & give the children breakfast if there's no reason to stay in bed Xmas Sad.

ArtyFartyQueen · 17/12/2013 07:00

Ita happened to me about 50 times this morning already. Grrrr!
