Adblocker message comes up when no blocker installed.

I was using Ublock Origin and tried disabling it for this site.

Then I disabled it completely and the message came back.

Then I got bored. Between that and the bad gateway problem...

This appears to be genuine. Providing you use getadmiral.com to handle these things.

I posted a screen shot but it didn't like it.

Additionally in red it said I must post a message even though I'd already written one.

Not sure what was going on there.

Hello @LastTrainsEast that's definitely from us. Sometimes our adblock detection script can be triggered because other browser extensions are still blocking parts of the page.

If you’ve already disabled Ublock, it might be worth checking for other privacy tools or trying in a private/incognito window with extensions switched off. Let us know if that works, so we'll have at least isolated the issue. Thank you.

I'm also getting constant adblock messages despite disabling things. I think this may be the final straw for me and MN (after 25 years!). I just can't be bothered anymore...

I'm getting this too. Seems fine on the active conversations page but comes up whenever I try to open a thread.

Hi again,

If anyone's still experiencing this issue, please could you check if you're using any of these extensions and tools, as they can all trigger the blocking message -
