I got mislead into clicking one of the new ad's appearing on the website here that look kind of like its a button to start a new game. I have omitted it a number of time not even thinking about it, until it caught my eye and without thinking i hit it thinking it was going to start a new game...

Here is a screenshot of my whole browser to see what I see. Needless to say this will only happen once to me and most people who accidentally click it, and i know upon closer inspection its obvious its an ad because the X button on the top right corner but this is still a deceitful tactic employed because many people will likely click it thinking it will start a new game...

If you reported, that should work, but the link from the image isn't the full link, and not selectable.
