Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
A little cleavage on a character is not "explicit content." No action taken.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
Yeah I get that. The comic it links to is pretty suggestive on it's own though.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
1.) Date and time ad was visible: EST (GMT+0) 17:30
2.) Region (Pick one: USA, Canada, Europe, or Rest of the World): Europe
3.) Location of ad (Top box or bottom box): Top box
4.) Brief description of objectionable content (including a name or other identifying characteristic): The web comic "misfile". Whilst the picture itself should be okay, the plot involves a pot smoking angel and references several known figures from the Bible such as Gabriel. However since this is not apparent from the ad itself I am unsure whether or not this is a problem. Figured I'd report it and find out.Last edited by Boci; 2012-06-12 at 11:47 AM.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
/me pops up to report the Misfile ad for completely different reasons.
1.) Date and time ad was visible: EST (GMT-7) 09:58
2.) Region (Pick one: USA, Canada, Europe, or Rest of the World): USE
3.) Location of ad (Top box or bottom box): Top box
4.) Brief description of objectionable content (including a name or other identifying characteristic): Involves two scantily clad teens laying on one another. As a frequent reader I know the comic isn't pornographic, but I'm not sure that Missi's outfit is quite appropriate for the board.
For the religious angle, while there ARE mentions of figures from the bible, the comic has almost nothing to do with religion, and a number of the names just happen to be used. The pot smoking angel is a major character, but he gets lot of flack for said pot smoking.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
Sheriff: Please stop reporting the same ad. Once it's been brought to The Giant's attention, he can look at it and decide. The re-reporting and commentary is not necessary.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
I can't bar an advertiser who is not currently advertising, and I'm not going to spend the time to maintain a list of people who I may bar if they ever advertise again. If they do advertise again, though, feel free to raise your objection at that time and I'll make a decision then.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
Yes, the comment to re-report was in response to a now-deleted report (which I wish hadn't been deleted, for precisely this reason).
As for Misfile, I will send them a note asking them to use a less risque banner.Rich Burlew

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
Speaking of that deleted report, the advertiser in question is up again.
1.) Date and time ad was visible: June 25, 9:32 am Eastern time
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): The web comic Wizard School includes one page that the previous reporter feels treats rape in an inappropriate manner. The page in question is here. The comic in general also features a lot of foul language. I don't know if these issues really merit blocking the ad, but now you can make the decision.Like 4X (aka Civilization-like) gaming? Know programming? Interested in game development? Take a look.

"Gesshoku". Translating the Japanese, "your source for dom/sub, gay, and lesbian goods" -- which is somewhat misleading, the site actually just sells Japanese-inspired clothing, only some of which has vulgar Japanese words.

2.) Region: Canada
3.) Location of ad: Bottom
4.) Brief description of objectionable content (including a name or other identifying characteristic): The ad itself is a sloppy MSPaint collage of pictures of TOTES RIPPED male and female midsections that uses the same thumbnail three times because apparently the guy who made it was too lazy to spend more than three seconds on Google Images. It features centrally a mouse hovering over the word "here" and is declares to have the truth about "SIX PACK ABS." While circumspect in itself, actually clicking the link takes you to some Amazon store for 3D glasses (which was quite disappointing.)Last edited by Mr. Moon; 2012-07-04 at 09:00 AM.

1) July 5 9:49 central
2) US
3) Bottom box
4) Ad contains the usual 'WARNING ACT NOW' hyperbole, and links to a site whose domain speaks for itself as a scam. Additionally, the text on the page linked in the ad has text that fits into 'what the professionals don't want you to know! "Free"!' archetype.Ask me about our low price vacation plans in the Elemental Plane of Puppies and PieSpoiler

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
Odd looking ad, looks "scamish."
1. July 6, 9:30+9 GMT (Seoul, ROK)
2. Rest of the World
3. Bottom Box
4. Ad description: WARNING!!! Backlinks are the Currency of SEO! With a Red Button stating "Act Now!"
The ad itself goes on how to get their "Blog Post Cheat Sheet," apparantly techniques to get more people to read your blog posts?
Not sure if this is not allowed, as there is no nudity, over-the-top violence or the usual no-nos, but it reads like a "Buy our Mailing Lists" how-to spam and scam.Thanks to Ceika (X2), Yeril, Holammer and Dr. Bath for the Avatars!

Yeah, I don't think that's legal. Oh, the Backlinks ad disappeared a moment after I posted, and this one went up, so...Last edited by Surfing HalfOrc; 2012-07-05 at 07:48 PM.

Re: Report Inappropriate Ads Here
OK, Game CD keys is just flat-out banned for probably-illegal content.
The "Backlinks" ad is also banned. Shady, at best.
The other ads that have been reported have withdrawn their bids, so I can't take action against them. If they reappear, please report them again.
Also, please do not delete your reports on this thread for any reason--even if I decide not to take action. It makes it very difficult to figure out the chain of events and leads to duplicate reports.Rich Burlew
