matto Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 No problem with adds at the top of the pages but it would be nice if they are tring to sell Barbie to a bunch of blacksmiths that she would at least have a hammer or a leather apron. Shoot she has leather pants, a giant house, a horse ranch, why not a farriers rig!!! she could shoe her own horse. We all know, if you have seen ken, she is the one that does all the work.

ThomasPowers Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 What I like are the directed ads: when you post a thread on How bad your experience with XYZ was, then you get ads trying to sell XYZ...The recent car recall nastiness had some of that... "My SO was killed because you didn't recall XYZ cars!!!" "Buy XYZ cars!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles R. Stevens Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 That and often the banner ads look at what cookies are on your computer. Don't like adds for Adult dating sights? Might consider wether your visiting dating sights or adult entertainment sights. So who has been googling barbie dolls on your computer? I get a lot of steel and welding adds when I go to other sights, lol. Kind of strange when your looking for a good gumbo recipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I told Firefox it couldn't tell anybody about my preference, couldn't track them itself, no cookies and to shut off adds. It took nixing all 4 to minimize stupid adds but it seems to be working now. Hey wait a minute! I get Barbie adds? What are you surfing Thomas? Frosty The Lucky.

notownkid Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Mine is giving to Charity, they have that one wrong. "They say it is better to give than receive", If that is truly the case then Someone has to do the Receiving for all the others to do the giving, Tough job but someone has to do it.
