Need help sorting out how to use 23? Or have you discovered one of those nasty bugs?

Why is there a link to www.23.gy on my Photo's page?

I just noticed and was wondering what the purpose was to the link to http://www.23.gy/S4BhAd on my main Photo page?

At the top of my Latest Photos page, right under my account name "virtualsky", the text that says "Has recently uploaded 3 photos to the album titled The Homestead" is linked to this very odd web page,23.gy. And, when I click on it, all I see is a banner for Domain Monster.com and a bunch of links to ads.

Is this by design (by the 23hq team) or is this an error of some sort?

Just wondering.
David.

Yeah, it's actually not by design -- before social media started not counting the length of links we were experimenting with short short links, but since then moved back to just using "23hq.com" instead of 23.gy. You saw a glitch where a reference wasn't changed, but it should be now. Sorry about that.

Hey, no problem! I just happened across it and wondered what it all about. Thank you for looking into it. :)
