BioBen 3 Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) Ok so the google ads at the top of the page are based on the page you are viewing right? So i want you to go to your own profile and take a screenshot and pop it up on here. Mine was . . . er . . . odd: Edited December 4, 2008 by BioBen Share this post Link to post

Nmenth 291 Posted December 4, 2008 They want me teaching English apparently. Share this post Link to post
Sonic 296 Posted December 4, 2008 The Google Ads are based on certain key words found the the page. Now I'm not 100% sure, but I think they are also based on your web browser's history as well, in other words.... your surfing habbits. Some of them are also region specific, meaning if your in the USA or UK you shouldn't see anything related to something in NZ. Share this post Link to post
Nmenth 291 Posted December 4, 2008 Mine was . . . er . . . odd: Was your own fault, as you can see from this shot I stole from your profile page. Note the one referencing AIDS, whose name is that? Share this post Link to post

Chronojam 3 Posted December 5, 2008 Mine wants me to watch Top Chef or get a free medium pizza. Might do both. Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted December 5, 2008 You guys shouldn't really block adds on CNCNZ you know, since they help with hosting and such. In other news, these adds in profiles are really ******* weird. hahah That is after I bombarded most of you with random comments! Share this post Link to post
Renamon 0 Posted December 5, 2008 apparently google wants me to find a girlfriend whose name doesn't end with jpg. Share this post Link to post
Nmenth 291 Posted December 5, 2008 Following Luk3us' heinous assault on my profile, my new ad is this, Interesting... very interesting... "a concentration in your field of expertise." Including terrorism, international conflict, and international commerce... Except Luk3us didn't even have anything to say other than how detailed my profile happened to be.

Mina Synd 0 Posted December 6, 2008 i keep getting game adverts now o.O like pogo.co.uk - play poppit now! and on this enter post window i've got an advert for MechQuest (which might make sense cos i used to play adventurequest x3) lol at the diplomacy ad xD i used to get a lot of the dating ad ones. and some outright disturbing ones that REALLY shouldn't be on a board like this. i think the change is because i've tried to cut down my naughty talk as much as possible... now i'm just pretty much ranting about politics all the time. so why am i getting a load of flash games? i've only talked about that a few times in certain posts... eh whatever ^^; Share this post Link to post
Julbri 0 Posted December 6, 2008 You guys shouldn't really block adds on CNCNZ you know, since they help with hosting and such. Notice the only person blocking the ads (admittedly) is an administrator Share this post Link to post

Mina Synd 0 Posted December 6, 2008 also lawl. a lil while ago (well. a few HOURS ago now...) i was typing a message and looked up to discover a "largest female driving school in the uk" with the message "leran to drive!" on it... i instantly screenshotted it and added it to the post. i believe it is in the pictures topic xD also -someone- is making money for the adverts on here... just because it's not you making the money you shouldn't block them from it :3 probably only like, $0.001 or something for every page you view... but it's still profit!
