Anglogeezertoo Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Whenever I open the forum there has always a small concertina related strip advert at the top right, generally for Noel Hill, Wakker concertinas or Edgley Concertinas etc However, tonight I have noticed that mixed in with these is an advertisement entreating me make contact with UKRAINIAN WOMEN !! Now much as I am tempted .... in the privacy of my own home ..... Nooo! ... Get thee behind me Satan!!! Question. Does the site Admin have a choice over which adverts are displayed? Do the ladies in question play the concertina? I've just had one for KCOM. Now I know who that is, KINGSTON COMMUNICATIONS, the telecomms provider in my area. Whilst that is perhaps understandable I do wonder how the other advert manages to infiltrate regards Jake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Hare Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Whenever I open the forum there has always a small concertina related strip advert at the top right, generally for Noel Hill, Wakker concertinas or Edgley Concertinas etc . .Does the site Admin have a choice over which adverts are displayed? I almost never see a 'tina-related advert these days. The current one relates to prefabricated data centres - whatever they are. My question is: When I signed on with c.net two years ago, I didn't see this strip advert at all. Did I do something to turn it on? Can I turn it off?

JimR Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Hmm, I just moused over a similar ad (young Asian women, in my case) and noticed an X in the corner. When clicked I was given the choice to "Never see this ad". Too early to tell if my choice will be permanent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hereward Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I only ever see adverts that are concertina related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken_Coles Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Here is just one of several old threads that go over this issue. I guess as long as Paul has to take dynamic Google ads to pay the bills (the ads are entirely his Department) one needs to be a informed user. Thread on Ads Cheers, Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
