I had hoped that I could keep rep points/1000 equal to my age .. but my rep points are lagging behind !

I'm not in the top ones (does that even matter!), though I am a bit less active on CP these days since I am pursuing my Master's in Computer Science degree, which has caused a huge amount of lag in the reputation graph these days.

The top of the list is very rarified; actually getting near it takes an insane amount of no lifing on QA or being active for many years; as a result slacking off results in a very slow drop. My engagement level (as measured by rep points) dropped to about 1/3rd to 1/2 of its previous value about 4 years ago (I went cold turkey for a few months because I decided I was spending too much time here); and I've only just fallen to page 6 (from hanging out on the border between pages 1 and 2 for a few years).
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I think I just got tired of what felt like paid upvotes ...
Articles and other stuff used to be a lot more interesting - and to be fair: I'm sure there are still people who put an effort into it, but now most articles contains less than 50 lines of text - and perhaps something like a 100 lines of source code, often looking suspiciously like stuff I've seen time and again ...

Problem is they don't read them and don't care!
I know what you mean, I tend to read Articles from names I know are going to be decent articles, as a result, probably don't see many good articles from others that have made the effort.

As this thread is on page 2 of the lounge nearly 2 days later, shows how the activity has fallen.

I fell away because I find a lot of content in the lounge to be uninteresting now and the forums are slowly stultifying. QA is a mess, albeit not as bad as StackOverflow, but people don't come here as a first choice anymore. I'm on a Facebook Xamarin group and people are advised to go to SO - a lot of the people advising this haven't heard of CP and, when they come here, they come back unimpressed. Still, at least there are some great articles; granted the number of crud ones means that I get to spend more time going through a back catalog of good ones, but occasionally a gem makes it through.

I have a friend that has a web site for his business. In the least couple of weeks, when you google search the domain name "twotenperformance", the first link in the search results shows up as "www.twotenperformance.com", but the description of the link is for cheap chinese sports jerseys. When you hover over the link, it shows what you'd expect (www.twotenperformance.com), but when you click it, it takes you to "http://www.jerseyssupply.top/#www.twotenperformance.com" (note the end of the url).
If you actually type in the "twotenperformance.com" domain name in the address bar, it takes you to the appropriate site.
I've tried this on several computers, a couple of phones, and an ipad, so it happens in all browsers (Chrome, FireFox, IE, Edge, and Safari) on all operating systems, and in the all search engines (Bing, Google, Yahoo) I've tried, so it's not a virus on the given machine.
I've never seen anything like this before.

It will be the clever spammers manipulating the robots to drive traffic to their sites.
It is a pain in the hoop. Bings annoncement last week appears to be the search engine trying to minimise these poor results and limit exposure to consumers. I was in a hurry one day trying to fix my daughters laptop and got hit by one of these bogus links (it was for Google Chrome) and ended up installing malware on the machine.

Hey, it could be worse.
A friend of mine looked up Dick's -- a sporting goods store in the US -- and was taken to all sorts of p0rn sites!

Without the .com, it's probably taken as just being a word, so the top result will be the site that uses that word and is updated most, has the most linkbacks, etc. -- and a Chinese clothing store is likely to get a lot of hits, so rank highly in the predictive routines.
If it's a site you've visited before, though, the browser's autocomplete should offer it while you're typing the "word".

That makes no sense. Go back and read what I observed, especially regarding the appending of "#twotenperformance". It even does this if i type the name of the business "Two Ten Performance". I ain't buying the more link-backs theory. It looks like an intentional redirect, although I have no idea why. It's a local shop that gets a modicum of local traffic.
After giving it some thought, I suspect it might be a side-effect of them using ebay to sell used parts, and someone is scraping domain names from seller contact info.

That can't be it. E-bay doesn't allow addresses in the ads, so the only way to get an address is by buying something.

You can find that sort of thing in spam emails.
On the surface it appears to be the ligit site but in the code tels a different story.
I thing the "#" makes it ignore anything after it.
I looked at the links from google and didn't see the redirect so it may be on the page itself.
I'll look at the source.

If you go to the desired url, it shows up fine. This only happens when you use a search engine, which tells me the site itself is fine.

I have a packet capture doing it both ways there is a strange "Jump" when using google.
I'll have to research how this is done.

Here is the redirect.
Full request URI: http://jbfly.win:7711/jump.do?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.twotenperformance.com%2F
I would say it is probable that the site was compromised and it is redirecting depending on the referer.
Google if linked from google, none if direct url input, possibly some other site depending on what it's refer string was.
They need to check the backend scripts and any extra admins added.
I would say the "#" in this case is a way so it dosent go to that site after but tells the site where it going who the infected site was.

I checked all of the javascript, and I didn't see anything suspicious.

it is something on the back end that is not showing up on the page we view thru the browser.
The referer is the site name not google for the redirect.
you would need to log into the site and look at the code behind.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you have access to the site see what this is
"url=/nojavascript.aspx"
it is in the head tag at the top of the normal page.
I don't know if that is normal to put that there or not.

That's something that allows the site to react to someone that has javascript turned off. It displays an error page in that case. Nothing nefarious about that.
