    I use adblock, but I opened this thread in IE and I see it. Seriously I'd rather vote for FF than Labour if I had to pick between the two. GTFO of my internetz, you desperate clueless fcuks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,497 ✭✭✭omahaid


    Ah ya, I see it in IE but not chrome, what is leading you to disbelieve your eyes OP?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,918 ✭✭✭✭orourkeda

    Surly im not the only one seeing this in the banner above.

    I cant believe my eyes!!!!

    Why?

    Obviously their "Stable Government" slogan is a bit misleading (not as misleading as their "Gilmore for Taoiseach" advertisements) but it's not surprising that they've chosen to advertise on the internet...

    I would like to think the people who make this site happen remain impartial .

    I feel a bit let down now TBH.

    I see it in chrome but it is not there all the time.

    They do. Bias only comes into play if they're offering better rates or opportunities to one party over another. There's no evidence of that here

    Does this mean you haven't seen the ads for other political parties? :confused:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,503 ✭✭✭thefinalstage


    I agree with this event or product. Also, boom baby.

    I cannot see this advert you speak of.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,305 ✭✭✭Chuchoter


    I'm on chrome....I see no ad :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,071 ✭✭✭101001


    no i dont want to make IE my default browser...

    No I dont want to import anything...

    eh... default setup?

    Yup IE still sucks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,745 ✭✭✭laugh


    Two adds for labour on the page, where do I get this Adblock, googles . . . .

    It's not cool to host political advertising boards.

    And that's why this country is ****ed, because of this kind of mentality. And it's the same people who ask why the country is the way it is a few years down the line.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,867 ✭✭✭UglyBolloxFace


    Couldn't see it on Chrome, but when I opened it with IE I saw the attached image.

    It seems they're all jumping on the bandwagon!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,004 ✭✭✭jimthemental


    I just keep seeing popups for girls who want to get naughty in my area. Hope to christ it's not the same ad and I've been ogling Joan Burton!

    Of course it is as long as they are not favoring one over another. Boards is still a business making money from advdertising and fair play to them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,202 ✭✭✭Jeboa Safari


    Fairly smart of them, seeing as the majority of boards are lefties.
    Think I saw a FG ad on politics.ie aswell

    Is it region based? I have a local ad in that corner.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,341 ✭✭✭✭Chucky the tree


    I think it's a bit stupid of boards to allow parties advertise, it brings into question how impartial they will be.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,572 ✭✭✭msg11


    I'm voting Labour because they advertised on a Boards so they have to be a bunch of good people out for the good of the members of Boards ..

    HAHAHAHA

    I'd like to donate but I'm a bit low on peasants at the moment. Do you accept serfs? I've a few of them loafing around...

    +1.

    And everyone on boards should drink Heineken.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,815 ✭✭✭✭galwayrush


    Never noticed it until it was pointed out. Anyways, it's just an add, not an order.
    The important thing is to vote.

    I like your policies already, vote for Pherekydes, most sensible thing i've heard throught the campagne,:cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,330 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    Vote for Labour, no thanks. It would be as bad as having a ginger Taoiseach.

    My next policy may not be as popular: y'all need to run the Dingle Marathon. Y'all getting fat and lazy.

    Pherekydes policy #2: Couch to Dingle.
