This mostly happens to mobile users (but on rare occurrence, it happens on PC to). Have you even tried scrolling around on your touchscreen and all of a sudden, you hit something while scrolling around and it caused it to click on the link (like posting an unfinished post, or accidentally like/dislike a post, or hitting a worthless ad?

For me, it has happened on occasion. Sometimes when I tried to scroll, especially if it likes to lag, I end up clicking on an ad that I didn't want to go on and it cause the whole page to exit of and go to that site and it is annoying, another thing is that I accidentally disliked a couple of posts because of this and I had to like them to get rid of the dislike, other than that, I haven't had many problems. What about you, when you try to scroll around, have you accidentally click on something?

Youtube has really been a pain for me with this type of problem.  I'm comparing your post to using my computer with the scrolling mouse and whatnot.  And that lag totally does make it worse.  What I hate is when I type in a topic in the search bar and the results pop up.  The results load really quickly but then 2 ad videos will load a second later and if the lag is kicking in at the right time I will click the video I want to see, then the ad videos pop up a seconds later.  Then everything scrolls down to make space for the ad videos and the computer thinks I clicked on the ad.  I've never clicked an ad on purpose in my life.  That really irks my last nerve when that happens.

It has happened to me quite a few times in the past. I would be scrolling down the page of a website and I would find myself being redirected to a completely different site that is completely unrelated in every possible way. The same thing happens to me on youtube, I could be watching a video on covalent bonding of electrons, and with a simple mis-click or two of one of the recommended videos on the side, I'll find myself watching a play through of Sonic 06. 

I will say that this does happen to me more frequently when I am browsing the web on my phone. It still happens from time to time on my desktop, but not nearly as frequently.

Oh gosh, yes. xD This...this is so annoying. I've done this a few times from both PC and mobile, and it irritates me so badly. Especially when I click an ad: one of my main internet rules is Never click on an ad.

When it's really frustrating is -like you said- when I'm about to post a reply and I hit the wrong button (usually "switch to new post editor") and lose a long message. Or I've even accidentally pasted over a reply before on mobile. That's the worst because it can't be recalled while the other mistakes sometimes can. And yes, mobile is bad about this.

Lol, this happens to me all time when I use my phone. Also one of the reasons why I am not using my phone a lot. I don't really get it why people love their phones that much. It's only useful when you want to call someone, nothing else. My PC shines in the world of Mudkip.

The worst thing that has happened to me is writing my post up on my phone, almost ready to post, accidentally clicking on a link to a different page. Ughhhh... (Actually this sometimes happens when I use my PC too, whoops).

Its the main reason why I don't post so much on my phone. Or not at all. This has happened to me a few times. And that really annoyed me. Which is why I always be on my laptop and no where else. I only use my phone on a small scale for things and not for vizzed. Not unless I am away from home, that's the only time I use my phone for vizzed but not to post.

This happens often when I use my ipod, especially when I'm trying to read an article or manga on that small screen. Sometimes when I try to click to go to the next page, I accidentally click on a video game or weight loss ad. I get unlucky at times where I can't go back because the ad keep's forcing the page to go forward. So when that happen's I have to close the tab, hate when that happens. 

I rarely use the touch screen feature on my laptop but when I did I didn't really click another link by accident. I hate accidentally clicking on a link when I'm almost done with a post, that is the worst for me since I'm a slowpoke when it comes to typing.

It happens constantly, especially when The Internet is slow. My arrow is barely moving, so when I thought I clicked on The right link it keeps scrolling some more to some window I do not care about.

I never clicked on a link, but I have left my cursor in such a way that when I leave vizzed and go back, one of those ads that grows starts to get bigger and I fully hate those because of all the space they take up and the sound.

Yes, it's happened to me before. I've accidentally disliked different posts by doing that. Now, I only get on Vizzed via my laptop to avoid running into another situation like that.

I've done that more than a few times on Vizzed. It's usually when I'm writing a review or article or long post, and I go to switch windows, then I come back and accidentally click something like the banner because my mouse is just stupidly over sensitive.

It's usually minor and happens on all sites, but it's particularly annoying when I lose literally 100's if not 1000's of words because my pointer finger decided to rest right over a banner or ad.

I click wrong links from time to time on websites in general. Although I tend to do this a whole lot more when I'm on my phone or my tablet. Sometimes I'm able to catch it and drag away, but not all the time. Always annoying.

I told the FBI that I clicked those links on accident. They didn't buy it. lol. Yeah, I'm bad though, I always wind up where I didn't want to go if I don't have all my blockers on.

Yes. Oh so many times-- not just on my phone, but on my laptop as well. I'll be reading a webcomic and I would accidentally hit the latest page or their Patreon.

This happens to me almost everytime I go onto Safari on my iPhone 4S.

I can recall a couple of incidents where this happened on my PC, but most of them were just me accidentally pressing my finger down. :p

Although, the Vizzed Board Home page has made me click something I did not wish to click a lot. Usually where it scrolls through different information, such as Latest thread, Members with the most posts of that day, etc. You know the one.

Yeah that happens to me a lot. Usually with YouTube I click on completely unrelated videos to watch I'm currently watching but, somehow YouTube considers it related and it usually tends to be something scary or someone getting killed.
