Is there any way to be selective about the adverts displayed on this forum.

The Evony ones are really quite not safe for work and i would rather not have them if there was any way to do this.

I suspect the only way to do that would be to pay for the forum though which isn't the best solution ever.

I haven't seen an Evony one on here, but is it the one with half naked women?

If it is, I have always thought that a rather odd advert when you consider what it is actually advertising.

Yeah, there are various ones for it basically just showing cleavage shots now. It has no relevance at all to the product.

No, the product is a rubbish online empire building game, isn't it?

For some reason it is quite funny, but not if you have that all over the shop when at work I guess.

I don't think I've seen one advert on here. Nor an underlined word (unless it's to a proper link) of the kind mentioned before. Why aren't you people adblocking?

I am at home, but at work I'm on IE7

Why do I keep getting ads for badger shaving brushes. What the fuck is a badger shaving brush?

Probably because it's the Google AdSense contextual link building program being used. It detects the the words "badger" and "badgers" on each page here and decides that we're all terribly interested in everything to do with badgers.

A badger shaving brush could be one of two things in my mind:

1. A brush to shave badgers
   
2. A brush made of graded and sorted badger hair

It's a brush for shaving your badger

I really hope not, a naked badger would be awfully cold at the moment. And very angry. We don't need an espcially angry badger.

I also am somewhat disturbed by the ad for 'badgers mount dating'. I am imaging scary bearded men dressed as badgers.

I have a badger shaving brush. They are amazing things. Best thing I ever did for shaving my face until I decided to give up shaving and grow a beard.

I saw something like this in a club once.

A couple dressed in formal wear with full head badger masks on, except she had on a dress with badger heads over her tits too. It was a bit like Madonna's conical bra but more badgery.

The answer to my joke "What kind of key can unlock any door" is "A pikey".

I felt that I wouldn't post the punchline there as it became inappropriate but I wanted to put the answer somewhere.

Why hasn't Batters responded about the adverts?

Ah. When monkey was mentioned and then other responses weren't posted, I automatically wanted to type 'cuntmonkey' but didn't because that would also have been inappropriate.

I don't see any adverts or underlining but maybe that's because I use FF and probably some adblocker thing too.

I don't see any adverts now I'm at home but I definitely saw them at work.

And "cuntmonkey" is a great term

Fuck. I had no idea shaving brushes were made from badger hair. I've bought shaving brushes for my Dad before, are most made this way?

You can get ones that aren't made from badger hair but all decent ones are made from badger hair so if you spent more than about a tenner on one it would probably be badger hair.

The very best ones are made with silver tipped hair from the neck and generally sell for £100+

Fuck.

Thanks Verm. I'll make sure I check in the future.

Sorry, I've no idea what to do about the ads. I might poke this place with a stick next week, see if I can improve the smilies and sort the adverts out. Or I might not, you never know.

I fucking hate DFS.

There is a carpet place near where I grew up, called STD carpets. I have no idea what relevance that has to anything, but I thought you ought to know.

Nasty things, the diseases one can pick up from a casual shag...

Despite myself, I laughed quite a lot at that.
