    Strictly Broadband is basically a pr0n site.

    Not sure what it has to do with ice cream :)

    I think you can block these sites in your adsense settings

    Yep, that looks like more than strictly broadband. :)

    Thanks for the heads up - added it to the filter (usually takes a couple of hours to block and also advised google as this sort of content should not be on our "network".

    While we're on this I noticed this earlier in the Mature & Non-Traditional Students forum...

    Myth

    I cant find the add on the forum - do you recall what thread you were looking at - they are content related ads.

    If you see it again if you right click and get the adurl - eg adurl=http://www.boards.ie/.

    Would be useful to know if its a personals site or mature pr0n. :)

    Any more just let us know.

    Sure, I was actually just looking at the main forum index on M&N-TS.

    www.boards.ie

    (DON'T CLICK - Probably NSFW (Not Safe For Work))

    Useful to know, ay?


    A likely story... ;)

    Hah, while on this thread (DON'T CLICK - probably NSFW):

    http://www.boards.ie

    I haven't clicked on the links so I don't know where they go but, eh, I think it might need flagging (or fapping, depending).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,624 ✭✭✭✭Fajitas!


    You may want to take that link down.

    My poor studio :o

    Sorry, I should have put the NSFW warning in.

    Myth

    Added your sexy matures to the filter - (spoilsport!)

    The Britney link is the same one zabbo posted, and is appearing due to context :)

    Both have been added to the filter but it takes a few hours for the filter to come into effect.

    Sweet, thanks for that.

    Eh, I think :pac:

    are the ads purely related to the website you are on, or are they related to what google already knows about you as a person from e.g. gmail?

    / not saying anything myth

    I noticed (earlier) some googlinks to 'Belgard-Babes.com'. Again, NSFW.

    Edit: I'll delete the below links just in case someone clicks on them in work. Again.

    They are either contextual based on the content of the page you are on, or specifically targeted to boards.ie

    If I was an advertised and bid on term 'cream', thats possibly how it was returned when viewing a thread about ice cream.
