Most links, including the presumably official click on advertising links take me here http://go.redirectingat.com/?rdrflb=1
why?

I should qualify that by adding that I am referring to the forum as in 'Promored Stories' at the foot of this page as an example

  • We can't figure out why this is happening, it's working for us on all browsers/devices. Do you use Ad Blocker?
