It is not included in the instructions on how to work around this. Whenever you open the inspector, navigate to people page, the page will reload and console will populate with "Refused to" errors. Thoughts?

I found a work around to enable the scraping without the group page redirecting/reloading.

"This does not solve the root issue, but many websites punish by redirecting the page. Paste javascript:window.onbeforeunload=()=>{return true;}; into the URL bar and click cancel when the website tries to redirect you, then check "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs" when the website does it again and click cancel." - (https://stackoverflow.com/users/15326565/anm)
