Inappropriate Ads

Hey, I had an inappropriate (in my opinion) google-ad show up. I was searching forums for "chat room" and an ad for Horny Swinger Sex Chat came up. The site was SwingerNet.com . Aside from the fact that I thought it was an ad for a sex-swing (which would at least be interesting), it really goes a bit beyond PG-13. Here's the URL: http://www.swappernet.com/sn/Freesignup.aspx?afl=6g_ssc24&gclid=CIb94-uk25gCFQrAGgodwHJ-dw

Yeah! Ugly people should not be allowed to be naughty!

caitlinsdad in reply to skunkbaitFeb 14, 2009. 8:34 PM
Yeah, it ruins it for the ugly people looking at the naughty stuff... and elsewhere on cable there is a storm about to brew on evolution on BBC, coverage on vegetarianism on Animal Planet, and good old wrestling...take your pick

Hahaha. There should be a "breaking forums news" topic that tells of the flames, wars, truces and such on the forums.

Your armor seems to be singed again. I'll just dust off the banhammer and get it ready again. *sigh*

I do not fancy a burger'n fries. Do you fancy a whoopin'?

skunkbait (author) in reply to Lithium RainFeb 15, 2009. 8:07 PM
I dunno. Would it be a fancy whoopin' , or just your average everyday garden-variety whoopin'?
16
Lithium Rain in reply to skunkbaitFeb 15, 2009. 8:09 PM
A whoopin' like none you've ever seen.

skunkbait (author) in reply to Lithium RainFeb 15, 2009. 8:12 PM
Ok. Sounds good. I hereby volunteer Rocket Sci to accept that whoopin'!

Lithium Rain in reply to skunkbaitFeb 16, 2009. 7:29 AM
Awesome. It's been almost 20 minutes since I last gave an overconfident teenage male a whoopin'.

>Looks around<

Where is he?

Where does one get a whoopin', you ask? Why, right here!

Coverage on vegetarianism on Animal Planet??? Are they trying to convince lions to rethink their diets? And good old wrestling? Talk about ugly people doing naughty things!

caitlinsdad in reply to skunkbaitFeb 14, 2009. 9:07 PM
I'm just going with the herd but part of the argument might be bull.

Bull? Is he one of the wrestlers?

Goodhart in reply to skunkbaitFeb 15, 2009. 1:49 PM
I thought he meant Bull Durham...

Anybody else out there remember "Bull of the Woods"?

Richard Moll! He was brilliant. I think he also had a bit part in "SHirley & Laverne" as a hoodlum or something.

Try posting this in the bugs forum, perhaps? Maybe that's where Eric meant stuff like this to go...

And, this isn't the first time this has happened, although I've never seen any dirty ads, I've heard of others who have.
5
skunkbait (author) in reply to Labot2001Feb 14, 2009. 8:06 PM
Yeah, this is only the second time I've seen something I really felt was inappropriate. And considering it is the internet, I figure Ibles has a pretty good record of keeping the undesirable stuff out.

kelseymh says: Feb 13, 2009. 10:15 PM
A few months ago, Eric posted a Forum topic where you could provide feedback on such issues. Yeah, I know that's too vague to be useful, but it's the best I've got.
5
skunkbait (author) in reply to kelseymhFeb 13, 2009. 10:23 PM
Yeah, I was looking for that but couldn't find it.

kelseymh in reply to skunkbaitFeb 13, 2009. 10:28 PM
Right. I tried scrolling through "all" of Eric's forum topics, sorted by "recent," and gave up when I got to ones before I joined I'bles. Sigh....

caitlinsdad in reply to kelseymhFeb 13, 2009. 10:40 PM
Man, that Skunkbait geezer is losing it. He created the topic himself...

Augh! Seriously, Eric had posted a topic months ago, including a mechanism where you could capture which server had generated the inappropriate ad and send it off to Staff, and now I can't find it :-(

Lithium Rain in reply to kelseymhFeb 14, 2009. 12:06 PM
I think it was an instructable.

gmjhowe in reply to kelseymhFeb 14, 2009. 4:06 AM
It was in response to my topic. HERE

His comment further down explains things.
Including this Link to pick out which ad suppliers are responsible.

Kiteman says: Feb 14, 2009. 5:18 AM
I thought that was fixed? The worst I've seen for a long time are those slightly creepy 3d-avatars-in-their-underwear adverts.
22
KentsOkay in reply to KitemanFeb 14, 2009. 10:08 AM
You think they are creepy too?

Kiteman in reply to KentsOkayFeb 14, 2009. 10:24 AM
Yeh, I mean, they're probably supposed to be sexy, but I look and it's eww! They're about 12 years old!

skunkbait (author) in reply to KitemanFeb 14, 2009. 8:00 PM
Yeah, that was a little EWWW.
22
KentsOkay in reply to KitemanFeb 14, 2009. 11:00 AM
Indeed, it seems targeted for the pre-teen - early teen "my bff jill" crowd
169
Kiteman in reply to KentsOkayFeb 14, 2009. 11:28 AM
Even so - if they were photos, I could get arrested for looking at them!
22
KentsOkay in reply to KitemanFeb 14, 2009. 5:44 PM
I don't think I could...

Kiteman in reply to KentsOkayFeb 15, 2009. 2:30 AM
It's the badly-written paedophilia laws over here - an art gallery owner was prosecuted for displaying a photograph of a young nude, even though it was taken decades ago and had been accepted as "proper art" before the laws were enacted. The traditional "baby's first bath" photo can get a parent a visit from social services.

There are also extra laws for teachers in the UK. For instance, the legal age of consent is 16, but having relations with anybody under 18, even if they do not go to a school you teach in, will cost you your career.

What happened to your face?

Weissensteinburg says: Feb 14, 2009. 12:21 PM
I forget which firefox add on it is, but one of them lets you know what website its coming from. Maybe adblock? Anyways, I remember someone from ibles saying that the web address is what helps them most.

Goodhart says: Feb 13, 2009. 9:49 PM
That's not a good sign.....are they going to start to stalk you know?

skunkbait (author) in reply to GoodhartFeb 13, 2009. 10:00 PM
The best part is that it was on my office computer!
38
Goodhart in reply to skunkbaitFeb 14, 2009. 8:04 AM
Yeah, depending on how well they track things...that can be very bad. Where I work, a third party records all of that stuff, and that would have raised all kinds of flags....kind of scares me about visiting here from work anymore.
