Perhaps you should begin explaining to the offending advertising dealer that constantly breaking your site is not what you look for in advertising and you may be forced to replace their services if they cannot do a better job in rendering their service?

Also if I understand some ad revenue correctly, GW makes more money if people click on the ad. And I will make a point not only to not click on the ad (with what they do to this forum, who knows what there website might do to my computer. With the age of viruses upon us I'm not taking the chance), but I'm not even considering buying their product either because they've pissed me off.

How long do the ads stay in rotation? That flaming butt has got to go!

I have to agree with that one. Some may find it funny, but not me.

I second that ... Third that. I guess I'm third.

Hey, no ditching! You're at least 4th! It doesn't matter that I didn't post the several and various obscenities that I hurled at the screen last week; it only matters that it was last week (Weds at latest) that I did so! There.

Hey, I never said I was good at math!

LOL ...it is coming up more often it seems.

I find it a little ironic that it is advertising the Season 4 set release as "uncensored", which apparently includes the advert being uncensored as well.

Hmm. I haven't seen that Family Guy one yet or at least not the offensive one I have seen people discussing, but I have seen another tame one.

I just thank the gods that that damn Star Trek ad is finally gone.

Okay, I've waited four days. All ads that ever show up at the top of this pages are these:


(And the iTunes ad is pretty stupid. If google is generating these ads based on my location (I think so because of the German ad), they should know that iTunes doesn't work that way in Germany).

I don't know whether I have some ad blocker that I know nothing about or what. But I'd really like to see a screenshot of this supposedly annoying ad to form an opinion. (If you don't want to post an image of that here, feel free to PM me. I'd appreciate it. )

The Flaming Butt Ad(tm) shows up at the bottom of the page between Post Reply and the Quick Reply box. It's a Flash ad.

I've only seen the flaming butt ad(tm) at the bottom of the screen. It's funny that right now the ads at the top are those google print ads, these for buying ad space from various companies. While we may be talking about ads on this thread, I wonder if anyone reading this is in the position to actually buy ads.

And sadly, after being gone for a couple days, the Star Trek ad appeared last night.

Edited to add Dem's trademark.

How the heck did a flaming butt get through? That's definitely NOT appropriate.

And now it's at the top.

As the rest of the Gutter can attest, I'm a fan of tushies.

But NOT that stupid cartoon moon. If that's the level of humor on that show, I'm soooo glad that I don't watch it.

BTW - I think the content filter that we use at work keeps blocking it. I just hope that whoever monitors our system realizes that it's NOT a site that I'm trying to access. I could get my tush fired.
