Imgdecode - can you try something, guys ?

Postby oliver » Tue Jan 13, 2015 12:19 pm

Hey guys :)

I was trying something and I opened, with adblock turned off, this link, don't open it yet :
http://imagedecode.com/img-54b4f2cb63d19.html
DO NOT OPEN IT YET

What struck me is that I was showered with no less than ELEVEN different popunder windows in my firefox.

Not just a bug with a script trying too hard to open a popunder and the browser showing me 11 attempts were blocked. Nope, 11 successful distinct successes at opening me a popunder.

On the other hand, I only (oops, forgetting the double quotes : "only") had 3 popunders + a warning of another blocked one under IE, and 9 popunders with Safari. Didn't test with Chrome, as turning off Adblock in it was a pain.

I know some file hosts really push things too far, but here, that might be a record.

Do you guys ALSO see this number of popunders ??

And, have I been living under a protective rock called Adblock for too long and it's now become something we see quite often, or would you guys also agree this behaviour is just far fucking too much ?

I used Opera 26, without ad-block and other blocking stuff, also with pop-ups enabled.
Got new record - 12 pop-ups. :woot:

:edited4:

There's a script on this website, which pops even moar! Wait 30 secs, click somewhere on empty space, repeat...

Twelve ? Damnit, you beat me !! :D

Okay, more seriously, do the other image hosts do the same ?

Otherwise, I really don't want to impose such crazy shit on my visitors :(

More feedback from you guys would be welcome :)

Well, I have free time, so here is mine

Image hosting test, used browser Opera 26 with pop-ups enabled:

ImgChili - x1 at 1st visit only.
ImgSpice - same as ImgChilli.
ImageTwist - same as above.
ImgBabes - x5 at 1st visit.
ImgFlare - x5 at 1st visit.
ImgServe - x1 at 1st visit, x2 at 2nd visit and x2 at 3rd visit.

Other image hosts, mostly used at gallery-dump.
ImgPaying - x9 at 1st visit and x2 at every next visit.
ImgDetop - x8 at 1st visit, x4 at 2nd visit + 1 pop-up every ~30 seconds when you click at empty area.
ImgCandy - x3 at 1st visit, x2 at every next visit.
ImgTiger - Site not loading for me atm.
ImgMega - x2 at 1st visit and x1 at 2nd visit.
ImageEarn - x1 at 1st visit.
ImgClick - x1 at 1st visit + 1 pop-up every ~30 seconds when you click at empty area.
ImgBar - x1 at 1st visit.
GalleryNova - x6 at 1st and 2nd visit, x4 at every next visit.
ImgMaster - x6 at 1st visit, x4 at every next visit + site is overloaded with banners.
ImgTube - x3 at 1st visit, x2 every next visit.
DamImage - x7 at 1st visit and x6 every next visit.
ImageFolks - x2 at 1st visit, too many ads and trackers.

Linkbucks beats all with 1 pop-up everytime you click at the top bar. :)

***

Conclusion:
As you see, most image hosts are pop-up/banner farms and they shave a lot. :)

LOL! And I thought the bug in my popunder code on ImgSwift was terrible! No wonder why I haven't had my image host banned on popular forums like other hosts have been.

In some cases the advertisers prefer to show their ads to users from a specific country - most wanted is the US (and UK) traffic.
I suggest if we have someone in forum from UK/US to make the test.

What the fuck!!

I got 7 immediate popunders on the initial link you posted Oli. Holy shit!

Thank god for adblock :shock:

If you ask me, any site that has more than a couple of popunders is pushing things too far.

IMHO, all those image hosts should be fucking banned from GD.

:edited2:

LOL, thought I would test a random gallery on GD just for the fun of it:
http://www.gallery-dump.com/index.php?gid=669866 (imgmaster)
>> IMMEDIATE popunder shower 5 + Subsequent shower 4 + wall to wall banners and layer ads AND....
The final image is only 201px × 268px :ololol:

SlutFuckerxxx should be axed and imgmaster should be burned to the ground :axe:

Let's not take too hasty decisions, but, yeah, there will be some banning, things are being pushed too far, here.

And I find myself horrified at the idea of telling "no more than four popunders", the "average ground" idea that first came to my mind. Shit, that's batshit crazy insane, that THIS is a middle ground :(

Remember guys, when we complained about imagefap ?

nice work gd,in compiling that list and checking out each site

Some of the popups/redirects on some of them sites are crazy

The 2 worst I have encountered is gallerynova and damimage,both had 8+ when I checked

eta:i checked those sites using good ole i.e and no popup blocker of any kind
