Whats with the "advertising" at the bottom of the page???
« on: December 02, 2008 - 04:43:36 PM »
Hey don't mean to be a prude but what's with the "advertising" at the bottom of the page? I had to try and explain to my small kid the other night while we were looking at some cool pictures of Dodge Challengers, why two girls were kissing and laying on each other?  Whats done in your bedroom is none of my buisness but I find this offensive?? I'm sure someone will say "you don't have to be on this site"  or something to that effect but...... can't we just keep this a "car site" ?????

its supposed to be car related.  ive seen the ads drift in relevance away from cars, but never seen porn like pictures there.

I didn't see that one, but there was one a couple of weeks ago that included a little soundtrack of a ringing telephone.  MAN, was that annoying!  :swear:

Nah, it's probably because he is using Internet Explorer.  IE sometimes doesn't render things correctly.

I didn't see the advertisement, but I can see why you would be upset if your son saw it.  Hopefully we won't have it happen again, but who knows if there is any control over that.
