GamePress

Gamepress Alternatives?

What are the best alternatives for PGO information and strategy. I’m about done with these Amazon gift card pop ups. Want to find an alternative until GP gets their act together.

Thoughts?

I don't have an answer but I wanted to say I'm about to that point where I stop visiting gamepress altogether. I had a pop up yesterday on my phone that started talking to me in Spanish (I live in the United States, by the way). I had close the entire tab to get it to stop yelling at me about something (no idea what it was).

So to the admins of this site: please do whatever you can to get rid of the horrendous ads

I had to install an adblock (AdGuard)

Pokemon go hub is an alternate site.

I also use fire fox focus and it has been working great. Free to download

We implemented some changes to the code a couple of days ago that should have fixed this issue. Please clear your phone/desktop browser cache and let me know how things go.

I just tried. Hopefully it works. The pop ups seem to come in waves, so I may well go a week without any regardless, but I'll try to remember to update if I see any changes.

Thank you for all you do on the site. This (and the Silph Road) is my 100% go to for all things Pokemon go.

Nick,

I don't want to use an ad blocker because I know ads support this site (the ad free version you could pay for apparently doesn't exist anymore) but those "ads" were over the top! I just cleared the history and cache on my Galaxy S5, and so far so good.

I've been visiting GP for over a year and still prefer it over the competition. Keep up the good work! Hope you can offer an ad free alternative again, but I'll be happy if those annoying pop ups stay gone ;)

I only use game press on computers (there are ads but they don't pop up). It's not useable on mobile devices due to the pop up issues.

No such problems on my iPad Air.

This is probably the best site in terms of PoGo guides, etc. Despite that, I bet that their traffick of users is way lower than competitor websites and dropping, just for the one thing you mention. Malware Adds. I stopped using this site on my phone, only PC.

They really need to put things in order...

I've never had any issues. Always wondering what everyone was talking about. AD Blocker works very well.

People annoyed bc they might be typing the greatest Pokemon comment ever, then it is erased by an AD. I just downloaded a new browser with an Ad Block, not like I was impressed with Chrome anyway
