I can't post a new thread anywhere. I get this error message. I didn't know where else to post...

Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in [path]/for_sale.php on line 234

Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: A link to the server could not be established in [path]/for_sale.php on line 234

There are TONS of embedded links all over the site that are NOT aquarium related. Also, I have seen ads for some insurance company, and I am always signed in. I do not visit here without signing in. I have been on the lookout for it again, and will screenshot it so that all can see it. I shouldn't have to DL a potentially harmful ad-blocker in order to browse the forums without seeing a bunch of ads that dont even pertain to the topic of the webpage. Aquarium-related ads have always been around here and I have learned to live with and accept that.

I also, am getting the axact same errors as others. Also, my tank profile says it is nonexistent but I can find it if I go in and look through all the tanks. Would be pretty nice to hear from management on this, considering we were told that concerns could be addressed HERE! This might have previously been the #1 authority on planted tanks (and likely still is at this point), but that could all change with the popularity explosion in the hobby that has been happening over the last few years.

Those ads are based on your browsing history or geolocation. They're served by Google AdSense, not Planted Tank. You see ads for an insurance company, I see ads for a window replacement company in Louisville. That's how AdSense works.

The SQL database errors, though, are hopefully being addressed. Moderators have obviously reported the problem and we'll just have to wait for it to be resolved.

I am so confused. Where are people seeing all these insurance ads? In the banner spaces? Pop-ups?

What OS and browser are you using?

I have a Mac using Firefox and I have *never* seen anything that was not aquarium related. And people keep just saying TONS OF ADS EVERYWHERE, so it's hard for me to understand what that really means.

As far as the database errors... I was getting them yesterday while trying to search the fish and plant database resources.

But I think that is another issue... I do hope that is resolved soon!

[Tetranerd]

I'm getting the same SQL errors as everyone else when I try to start a new thread in any section. Can add to existing threads, just can't create a new one!
