Any way to get rid of just inappropriate ads (Evony) other than paying for ad removal. I know you can provide feedback for some ads (google), but not all. I'm starting to get complaints form users. Most ads are fine. |

That is indeed good news. Thank you. I have had complaints about that ad as well. |

Much agreed. It's somewhat annoying to go and want to edit my site, and all I see is a big pair of knockers in front of me...  Get's quite distracting.

There's another ad I got a big problem with, the ad about a game called Battle Knight, it's a CPU eater and when the animation starts it slows down the whole computer. |

Another advert has the message Flight Of The Concords in it, which is an incredible CPU eater when it loads. The only way to stop it is disable the animation by right clicking and telling it to stop playing and turning the quality to low.

I actually read an article on how Evony has gotten increasingly risque ads on Google. It started with a generic knight, but now it's just bras and half-naked women. |

Has it been confirmed whether or not this particular ad has been removed? I am eagerly awaiting a verdict. |

We don't know, unless we just stop seeing it. Google is in charge of the ads--ZetaBoards just uses the Google AdSense service. So ask Google. EDIT: Apparently Brandon and Brian receive feedback. See next post. Edited by ElementalAlchemist, Nov 19 2009, 11:43 PM.

It's a Brian/Brandon thing only. I'll gently nudge one of them to this topic to see if there's an answer for that.

Brian has had calls into the group responsible for the ads. He has been working on it. |

I have confirmation that the Evony ads have been successfully pulled. |

I wonder if those types of ads are considered to be breaking the TOS. Under Prohibited Content: ....sexual material of any kind. I mean the ads weren't TOO bad but would they be considered as breaking the board rules? |
