    Default Inapproprite ads

    I have been getting some ads encouraging me to have an affair with married women.
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]588576[/ATTACH]

    Not something I have been chasing and I am thinking it is not the image that QB wants to promote.

    Not getting these anywhere else. Anyway, FYI, they exist here.

    Wow, that's pretty gross. I haven't seen any on this board.

    Tyson, our liaison at the owner company is giving this his personal attention. He is actively identifying distasteful ads on the site and reporting them to the ad team.

    I don't get those ads from this site because I have adblocker. But, they do slip into the adds accepted by other sites and slip by as a part of the site information. But, I appreciate the comment from PatriceJ because I know this site is always trying to make site visitation a fun and informative experience for everyone. I am quick to avoid sites that are edgy because I try to live my life in a wholesome way.

    Thanks, Patrice. Your help is much appreciated. I don't really think that ad reflects the lifestyle of most of our members.
