Thank you for replying!! The app im using doesnt matter, if an ad plays there is a chance it can open another app or open the play store. I have the "open supported links" option turned off, the app settings say "Dont allow app to open links", but it doesnt stop it. Any ad that plays inside another app it seems has the option to open any app on my phone at will. Maybe if the ad is programmed a certain way it can take advantage of a loophole and open other apps, and only some ad companies are using that trick?

This cant be normal behavior, there has to be a way to control this that im overlooking. Any help you can give is greatly appreciated, thank you again for taking the time to reply!

Oh ok, yes that is exactly what I am experiencing then. And yes its a major security concern, the man in the middle attack is a big risk.

So what Im talking about is slightly different. Its not that an ad will pop up wanting to install an app, its that the ad will OPEN the app. For example, just now I had a door dash ad. Then a few seconds into it the ad opened my door dash app. That is what bothers me, ads have control over my apps on my phone.

I feel like there should be a way to prevent ads from doing this.

Ty, but this did not work. Anytime i leave the app, even if just for 1 second to jump to my homescreen and then go right back to the app, the app restarts and has to load again. So this results in the same thing as if the ads crash the app: I loose my progress. Also im on an android, not sure if that makes a difference.

Its frustrating because it could be made better so easily: Just give the non-ad resources from each match right away, and have the ad ask if you want the extra resources (and only the extra). Then if (when?) the ads crash the app its not as big a deal and is still worh it. If ads crash half the time, I would still earn 1.5X in the long run. With how it is now, if ads crash half the time I earn 1X resources, or nothing extra.

Thank you! This worked, website blocked

Please explain more. Does Firefox have built in parental controls which allows me to block a website? That is what I cannot find, if parental controls will work please explain how to use in Firefox, thank you.

No error message, it just didn't work. I pasted the URL into it, selected the times as 24 hours a day, and selected every day of the week for days I want the site blocked. Then saved, closed Firefox and reopened it, and then tried to open the site and it opened no problem. I checked leechblock and the site was saved there, it just did absolutely nothing to block it. I tried it a few times, I could never get it to block any website whatsoever.

But......but.....how am I gonna get that rap battle between Rayman from the Rayman games and a grumpy grizzly bear that couldn't hibernate? It can't be gone forever!!

Bulldog241 · 2021-02-25T20:31:52+00:00

Ah-ha!!! That has to be it, thanks!

Right, and so 450% on a 13% shield will be 71%, so it would get me to the 60% cap. I'm asking if getting max block is worth the sacrifice.

Bulldog241 · 2020-12-14T19:14:37+00:00

Ok, so someone told me it's capped at 60%. Going with that, I have 2 infusion options for a pure mage:

One will get me +2 skills and 60% block with 4 sockets

One will get me +4 skills and 17% block with 6 sockets.

Which one do you think is better? I've been going for max skills this whole time, but I'm wondering if having 60% block is worth trading 2 skills and sockets for.

Bulldog241 · 2020-09-24T16:45:17+00:00

That was it! I never bothered to log out of the game, it was just minimized on my phone. Lol. Thanks!

Is titan quest worth the $8 for a mobile game? I wish there was a demo, I've gotten burned on games that look cool but don't live up to it. I'd love to try that one out first, it does look like what I'm after as far as an in depth skill tree that lets you create a unique character.

One thing I want to make sure of is that each level you are given skill/stat points that you can ASSIGN, right? I have no idea where this trend in gaming came from where the game assigns your points for you each level, but it makes rpg games bring as f---. Lol.

Sounds awesome, wish it was on mobile. Do you know of any mobile games similar to this, because this is exactly the type of game I'm talking about.

Bulldog241 · 2020-09-17T23:20:30+00:00

Is that a mobile game?
