I have never seen it either, can somebody instant message me when it is there :) Research purposes only of course !

Seriously, it is probably an ad coming from Google and I don't know what kind of data they use to pick which ads get displayed on various members screeens.

Good answer!

I use an ad blocker and don't see ANY ads - here or anywhere else. :clap2:

Hell, I clicked on the ad 17 times:jester:
Skip 2

Had to check the ad with Internet Explorer (not visible on FireFox). But my Anti-Virus/Anti-Spam software doesn't seem real thrilled with the young lady's website.:boom:

The Ads by Google rotate and, I would think, are targeted, so we don't all see the same ads.

You guys who see the ad have probably been very naughty-- at least in your browsing history. :laugh:

Ads/Sites/pay per click
 

Pt
Because TH was able to note the number of clicks and it was mentioned the ad was helping generate revenue, it was not a gmail/google-generated source.
TH and TOTV get paid every time they accept an ad and every time it gets clicked/linked from a unique email address if it's the typical ad.

The ads that bothered us were the ones with animation and obnoxious flashing colors like lake Weir living and Dawn the Accountant

Dawn was very responsive when i told her that her flashing tax prep ad was not something that we considered an enhancement for a company offering such professional services


I got her attention that iPhones and other siuch devices often fail to display anything with flashing graphics and/or animation

you just get a blank screen

I was just scrolling to the end so I could add my comment that I haven't seen the ad when there she was on the left side of my screen, in bright living (HD) color! And whoever said that girl could be up to 45 years old must be smoking something good. If she's a day over 21 I'll be surprised.

If that is the chick with the striped blouse, then I agree.

It's funny, but another version of the dating ad just came up, and this one has two separate photos of old guys (like most of us) smilinbg at middle-aged women and I'd say the ad is appropriate to the TV age group and probably wouldn't be objectionable to anyone in this audience. I wonder why they needed to put the young woman's picture in the other ad (I might have said "young chick's picture", but that wouldn't be PC would it?)

Sure, you can say that. "Chick Flick" is part of our language now. Even the chicks use that expression today.

we're anything but prudes but
puh-leeze, Mr TH, Ms. 'barely-legal-if-a-day-over-16' should be elsewhere.
we don't even get pop ups like those on sites where they belong more.

Yes, we don't mind the scenery but the fact you don't need the money that bad that those who have young grandkids looking over the shoulder.
And all the Clicks you mentioned as 'There must be a market'

It's more curiosity seekers looking at menus.

I agree. OMG You see alot more at the local swimming pools.

I finally saw the ad. Not worth the turmoil.

I finally saw it too, Z, and I so agree with you. Much ado about nothing.

BTW, L and L, it is a Ads by Google ad, but not to worry. TOTV still gets paid to run the ads.
