'Lost Post' doesn't take me to the last post in the thread every time as I would think it would.

Maybe it cannot be found?

When it doesn't work as you would expect, where does it take you? It doesn't take you to the last post made, necessarily. It takes you to the last post made since you viewed the thread, or at least it should. 

There is a request out to add a button that takes you to the last post, regardless of the last time you viewed the thread. I can expedite that request if that's what you're expecting as well. I don't think that would take too long to add.

So you can copy and paste, just not necessarily with your mouse depending on the browser you're in.

I feel like we're a bunch of assholes (we are, regardless) to keep asking for things to be changed, but... 

Like with vbulletin, is there anything that can show you a collection of when you are pos/neg repped?  And the comments you receive?

I noticed this too. I use Firefox on my laptop and it won’t let you click to copy and paste.

My expectation when I hit 'Last Post' is that it takes me to the last post at the end of the thread.  I can get there other ways, so if that isn't how the 'last post' button is supposed to work, I can still get there.

Currently you can view them on the individual posts, but not in a curated list. I can add it, if it's a quick thing I'll try to do it this week.

I think this might only happen if a post has been deleted from a thread. 

Yes.

I wondered who those were from. How'd you get my personal email address, creeper?

I'll take a look. I think what I'm going to do is temporarily turn off ads for you and wildcats and see if you still get that popup. If so, we'll know it has nothing to do with the google ads on the site. I'll let you know.

You emailed me a long time ago and Google saved it.

I'll let you know if I get that again.

Gotcha. I won't be able to turn ads off for you until at least tonight, so if you see it before then it won't really tell us anything. I'll let you know when ads are off for you.

Many of the platforms, fortunately, are aware of these problems and already explicitly ban this type of ad behavior. For example, the Google ad network prohibits, "pop-ups or interstitials that interfere with the user's ability to see the content requested [and] sites that disable or interfere with the browser's back button." But in practice, malicious redirects still sneak through.

This is the only ad network I'm using, and they explicitly prohibit these ads, though apparently they might still sneak through.

If anyone has any other monetization ideas, let me know.

I'm aware from your post the other day. That's not something I'll be putting too much effort into fixing as you can still paste.
