(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 Just noticed an ad for lovers, maybe just maybe a site that undeniably appeals to children shouldn't have those kinds of ads? Not sure how much control @YCMaker has over which ads appear, but if there is a way to avoid this kind of thing it's probably a good idea. (Also if the site isn't for kids, why can't I say fuçk) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators YCMaker Posted September 26, 2020 Administrators Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 Ads are actually targeted to the user viewing them, rather than being contextual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't on my regular device when I saw it, so I hadn't considered something like that. Is there any sort of blacklist option for the software you use to integrate ads? EDIT: while I have got you here, on the topic of ads, I had thought they were disabled for online users. If that had previously been the case (I'm not infallible, correct me if I'm wrong) why reverse it? On average, only a few percent of visitors to the site actually have accounts, so the profit margin can't be that significant to warrant such a change, can it?

Horu Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 "The ads are based on the user". This means that if you look up naughty things, the ads will be naughty. If you look up everything YGO, the ads will be YGO based. Hope that helps with the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
