Do we really need ads from Fubar.com on ATS???

Okay folks, my reason for visiting ATS has to do with news and conspiracies. The ads for Fubar.com show an extreme closeup of a women's bikini clad backside. There are enough threads here about people making an ass of themselves. I don't need pictures to remind me of this. I find the pictures not appropriate for younger ATS members.
If we keep this up why don't we just ad a "Page Six Girls" forum.

Speak up to the board if you agree with me.

I LIKE THE FUBAR ADDS WHAT ARE YOU A......

i'll hold my tounge.

As ATS is not a place of name calling, I'll forget your unprofessional reply.
I enjoy the sights of lovely ladies as much as the next guy. I just do not feel that ATS is the place for this. All it does in my opinion is lessen ATS's credibility. Should ATS's motto become "The National Enquirer of the Internet"?

"The National Enquirer of the Internet"

I don't know...sounds kind of catchy!

Might just work as an alternative motto!

Well, maybe the folks in charge will agree. Not that it manners to anyone but if they do change it I am out of here for good.

C'mon man! Seriously. The adspace sold is what makes this site what it is. Its a nice pic, and it keeps ATS going. Seems like a win win to me!

Well most of the stories from the National Enquirer would fit in at ATS seamlessly now that you mention it.

Batboy!

Ya...I am going to have to agree with this.

It has been my experience that a lot worse ads have appeared on ATS...so this one seems relatively mild comparatively!

Honestly I never pay attention to the ads much anyway...kind of learned to ignore them for the most part!

Those ads are generated by your search history..

So uh..

Jerry,
I find it difficult to ignore a close up of a woman's ass appearing in a banner right at the top of the page next to the ATS logo and just about the ATS toolbar.

I'd like to read what most of the ladies of ATS think about this ad?

Really...I wonder why I have an Oil of Olay ad up then...I can't think of anything a full grown adult man would search that would prompt an ad like that.

Of course I get a bunch of gambling ads too...and I have never gambled online ever...so I have a hard time following the logic behind them being generated by my search history...but who knows?

Okay...I hear you...I find it difficult to ignore a close up of a womans ass period...no matter where it appears!

Yes though...let's see what the ladies have to say...perhaps if it were a mans ass it would make a difference...but in that case...I would be a bit disgusted...just saying!

If that is the case the then there is problem online somewhere. I've never searched for or heard of Fubar.com until I found it right in front of my face here at ATS.

A picture of a butt wouldn't bother me.

however, I have noticed in the ? last few weeks, there are no ads at the top of Recent News, and MYATS and threads I visit. I like that. easier to load.

Coming from the perspective of a lady, I dislike those ads... I don't even know what Fubar is but it's bothersome, especially since the ads are very obvious from across a room, so I could be on ATS very discreetly and then all of a sudden BOOM SOMEONE'S ASS and it's very obvious. I would prefer if those explicit type ads would not pop up so obviously on the top of the screen!!

Thank you for your reply Berkeygal.

We all have our views as to what is okay and not so okay. Mine differs from others and like in all other cases since I don't like the scenery I'll just have to move to another town. I never click on any other ads. I can't afford to buy anything from them anyway.

Cheers

They scan for similar sites actually.


Like a few weeks I was looking for costumes, and they were showing costumes on the website ads here.

Spacekc929,

My point exactly. I don't need to try to explain ads like this to others that may be in the living room with me. Especially any kids!

thanks space, I'm a fem too, and I've been visually assaulted with the big beeyoch arse in my face. It's offensive. I'd like to hurl a boot at it without busting my computer. But instead, I found a way to blow ads off my screen. I'm afraid to say what it is, because these ad perps will then find a way to circumvent it. I'd like to circum-vent them. All the way down to their marrow.
