Re: Inappropriate ads not funny at all please REMOVE
Thank you Josh! These ads are no longer taking up 1/3 of the page of posts at the top and are now at the bottom of the page. that's fine with me.

Re: Inappropriate ads not funny at all please REMOVE
I clicked on the email link just now for subscribed threads which I normally don't do and it brought me to the site as not logged in and this is what shows up (screen shot)

Re: Inappropriate ads not funny at all please REMOVE
I dropped my pop up blocker to see what all the fuss is about a few minutes ago and I got an eBay add with a woman wearing a completely see thru webbed shirt. I don’t look at this kind of stuff at all. I know it’s not because of my browsing history or anything of the sort. Pop up blocker is turned back on and add free again.

Re: Inappropriate ads not funny at all please REMOVE
It was weird, it was that picture, then a bunch of lamp shades and other random stuff all from eBay. I haven’t looked at anything relevant to any of that stuff. The temu ads are the same random irrelevant stuff when I used to see them, but none of the temu stuff was inappropriate just annoying.

Re: Inappropriate ads not funny at all please REMOVE
The add at bottom is the most annoying. It takes up screen space. Other adds can be avoided by simply scrolling down. I have to click to go away and it comes back on next page. I know the site admins are doing their best.

Re: Inappropriate ads not funny at all please REMOVE
Pretty unfortunate, the guys that jumped on the OP saying that it's what he's looking at that was bringing up offensive advertising content. Of course that algorithm is there and we all know it. Most people would recognize what they are being shown and know why. It's very unlikely that they would take the time to start a thread to ask for help. Did you consider that this is a TRUCK SITE, and that the algorithm will make all kinds of assumptions just from that alone? I would bet that the guys that weren't seeing it probably share a computer with their wives and the algorithm then knows to go in a another direction. Never underestimate the bad assumptions that are made by the rest of the world (and algorithms) about us truck guys
