Please delete this (and block the poster if possible)
Edit: Sorry, I didn't read the first post. Is there a way to report spam posts (aside from the report post button)?

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
The report post button is about the fastest way to report SPAM and other problematic posts.
There has been the suggestion that new members be required to make at least 5 posts before being able to add links; but this has been rejected at the moment.

No, that's how you do it.

I'm looking at the same ad and I don't see any animation. Is it really slow or something?

There appear to be two separate frames, but the ad doesn't loop. It just goes from one ("Need a new server to rule?") to the other (GhastMC Voted #1 most promising new server"). Easy to miss.
In case this is needed still:
1.) Date and time ad was visible: August 15th, 10:40 pm CST
2.) Region (Pick one: USA, Canada, Europe, or Rest of the World): USA (Texas)
3.) Location of ad (Top box or bottom box): Top
4.) Brief description of objectionable content (including a name or other identifying characteristic): Animated Ad, for "GhastMC", a minecraft server.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
It seemed completely static to me as well. But, looking at the information of the file itself, it appears to have two frames and a single loop (no repeats).

Just to note that this is back. Same info as above. USA. Weird how this is getting through the ad settings The Giant has chosen for ads to be displayed here. EDIT: 4:30 pm PDT, Aug 18th.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
1.) Date and time: August 30th CDT
2.) Region: USA
3.) Location: Bottom
4.) Description: Ad displays five thumbnails: New Super Mario Brothers, Family Guy, The Simpsons, some Disney Channel-esque show I'm unfamiliar with, and Spongebob. Tooltip is "download the game you like". It seems to lead to a site advertising debt relief.

This ad is back (only different info is that it appeared October 6, around 9:55 PM Eastern). Not quite sure whether it's problematic or not, because nobody made a clear statement either way after the confusion over whether it was animated or not was cleared up.

It doesn't seem to be a scam or sleazy. It's an ad for an app that changes your lockscreen to one of various ads that companies provide. It's companies paying you small sums to advertise on your android device's lockscreen.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
Agreed, no action on the tTap ad. It seems to be legitimate, if odd.
GhastMC has been contacted and told that if they wish to place any future ads with us they must be static. If anyone sees the animated ad again, report it and I'll block them entirely.
I can't find the casino one; if it comes back, please report it again.

Just came in to post the same thing. (Time: 16:50 CDT, animation is basically two frames, changing after about 5-10s and remaining on the second frame afterward. It's also weirdly inconsistent for some reason, sometimes changing and sometimes not...)

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
OK, advertiser blocked and reported to the Project Wonderful staff.

1.) Date and time ad was visible: GMT-5 06:24 AM

3.) Location of ad (Top box or bottom box): Top box
4.) Brief description of objectionable content (including a name or other identifying characteristic): Advertises Read Manga Free; After clicking my browser warned me about some pop-ups (and I got redirected to a page with NSFW content that warned me to stay while closing the tab), also I'm not sure if the site itself is exactly legal. (Also the advertised site seems to be down now, at least I can't reach it to verify that behaviour)

It's not down for me and it's not legal at all.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
1.) Date and time ad was visible: GMT-5 18:05 (6:05 PM in NYC)
2.) Region (Pick one: USA, Canada, Europe, or Rest of the World): USA
3.) Location of ad (Top box or bottom box): Top box
4.) Brief description of objectionable content (including a name or other identifying characteristic): Ad consists of a shot of a girl's legs, and some skulls. Mouseover text indicates it's an ad for the video game Long Live the Queen. Link leads to Steam Store listing of said game.
Mostly I'm not sure whether it qualifies as a pantyshot or not? :smallconfused:

I think it's good. I never clicked the link, but its one of the regular advertisements. Been around multiple times, often for some time.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
Pretty sure that's her normal dress (i.e. overwear, not underwear), and I'd say the advert is trying to convey that she is young and naive, thrust into a world of politics, deceit, corruption, and murder by contrasting a childish dress with skulls.

I'm familiar with the premise, and it's actually high on my list wishlist. I just thought that given the shot was her legs rather than her face seemed... borderline.

That is of course up to Rich to decide. The image, though, is cropped from a much larger wallpaper image to fit in a banner.

If it makes any difference, I came over to this thread today to report this same ad. The shot, mostly legs and midriff, also struck me as perhaps not all that family friendly.
