    Just thought the guys running ONRPG should know.
    That's true.

    People pay google to have their fake ads at the top of the page. They often claim to be a website, but they are really somehting entirely different.

    No, no, the diagnostic was on the tinyurl site, and the redirect was clicking a link under "more pages from this website" or whatever under the ONRPG Forum link, halfway down the first page of results. It clearly was supposed to link to ONRPG, but redirected me.

    You mean the address says onrpg.com but redirects you to that other site?
    Scan for viruses/malware.

    None of the links send me to tinyurl.
