More like a complaint - Adult advertisement on site...NOT COOL
Sep 10 2009, 3:09 PM EDT | Post edited: Sep 10 2009, 3:09 PM EDT
Ok, I understand the "making a buck" thing. However, the ad that was on the front page of my Wiki had a scantely clad women with "Want Girls To Chase You?" Black Bood of Seduction. This on a family style site. Don't have the $20 per month to pay for ad free but that does not mean we should have to have those kids of ad's on the page. Also, I can understand running them down the sides but why on the very top of the Wiki? Are you an Ad company or a wiki provider? When I open up my page I should not have to page down to get to my content!! Do you find this valuable?

This is all true... but I think that there have been a lot of these complaint threads and wetpaint gets the point. Go easy on the wetpaint staff, it can't be easy. Do you find this valuable?

I agree 100%. I have kids and adults who view my wiki and are likely to be offended by this sort of advertisment. Ther should be some limit to the kinds of ads that appear on family sites. 0  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

Thanks WetPaint. Got two emails with some suggestions from Wetpaint folks that I will try. I will report the ad.
