It seems that someone falsely reported that this site is unsafe, so there is a warning when on Edge. It doesn't affect Firefox or Chrome it seems tho. IK most people use Chrome or Firefox so idk how many this will affect, but I wanted to mention it.

I did report that it was safe, but idk how long it will take to correct, unless something changed between yesterday and today that would warrant this to be here.

I get this warning on Edge as well. I filled out the website owner's page to report the false positive. It should be gone soon.

EDIT: In all likelihood the site was falsely reported by a disgruntled forum user. Virustotal.com says the site is fine.

Oh the usual.  Porn, and getting into fights with utility companies, airlines and my local government MPs who are mostly evil but with GOOD GOALS.  But mostly porn.

What?  That doesn't sound at all like the big red square above is talking about.  Fucking Microsoft, those lying sonsubitches.

Not sure what that means, but out of fear of starting a political argument, I'll ignore it

Might be related to my recent mod uploads getting false positively flagged as trojans by Microsoft? I even had Windows Defender remove the file from my own release backup folder.

In any case, that might explain the site getting flagged for supposedly distributing malware...
67f8bebd35033
@RoSoDude It wouldn't hurt to submit a false positive report on that mod, if you haven't done so yet.

Attached is the only reply I received about this from Microsoft so far. I've tried to contact them 2 times since then but no reply.

oh, so they also use the "2 business days" thing. as someone who has experience working for similar gigantic, soulless, rotten to the core companies, let me translate that for you - "lol we don't care see you in a few weeks, maybe".
67f8bebd35628
I think the "typically expect to" was a nice bit of foreshadowing.
67f8bebd357eb
It may not help but if people use the "Report that this site doesn’t contain malware threats" link and say "I think this is a safe website" then it may build up a pattern of reports that will act in our favour.  It only takes a couple of seconds to do, even if you don't use Edge normally (assuming you're on a version of Windows that practically requires you to have it installed!).

hmm, wanted to do that, but seems like the issue is gone.
67f8bebd359f3
It's still showing as dangerous here - may be that it hasn't propagated fully but it's encouraging if it's showing signs of not being marked as such at your end.

was showing as dangerous yesterday, but not anymore.

Main page seems to work, but when navigating to board I get the warning.

could this shit be fixed? makes the site unusable.

checked and yeah, while the main page has no problem, once you try to open a subforum you will get the warning screen. completely idiotic, but sooo microsoft.

submitted the "this site is safe" form.

Just use another browser.
67f8bebd3744a
no. fix it.

and its not just the main page, the warning comes up when clicking the URL, and then every time you go to a page on the forum, or if you post etc.

don't think this can be fixed from our end though?

it's like when a legit exe is marked as virus by an antivirus software, you tell the antivirus people you are legit and hope they will fix their product soon.

Honestly, it’s enough to make you want to attack your own eyeballs with a rusty spoon.
