I just did a search with your terms in above in green and went 3 pages deep and didnt find our site...
Not sure what your talking about with google.

Our site doesnt have any more ads then wowhead and in most cases less then our competitors.

I'm very surprised our network hasnt pushed us to display more ads like our competitors specially due to the current economic climate.

wut ads?

**Seerah** · 02-14-09, 09:47 PM

I went through 7 pages and didn't see wowi listed. I'm not even sure what you were looking for with those search terms, honestly.

Are you sure you're not infected with some adware, though?

any reason why my post was deleted?

We do not support ad blocking programs witch your picture advertised. The above person with the gold name went the right route removing ads from our site.

Now if your an international user I can understand using a ad blocker because most ads on US based sites suck because US based game developers dont want their ads to show for you. However those in the US will mostly see decent ads from us advertising other games or items targeted at gamers.

heres an idea... instead of whoring yourselves out for $1 to 5000 fat chicks to make $5000, why dont you whore yourselves out to one fat chick for $5000?

you guys are like the second most popular addons site.. you really shouldn't sell out for 1$

sorry for my language, but i cant come up with a better way to describe what you guys are doing to your site.. it really is disgusting

$5000 wont pay for much bandwidth. There aren't many "fat chicks" in the advertising world at the moment.

I dont see any more ads then we have normally had since we started this site. Also how would you know if you use an ad blocker? The ads I do see are mostly for other games and are high quality. Are you guys getting some bad or annoying ads? Could I get some pictures & country your in so we can work with our ad team to disable them?

Not sure what all the ruckus is about here. I see only two ads on my screen and both are well behaved, (not making annoying noises, staying within their box etc), and pretty unobtrusive at that. In fact in all the time I've been visiting this site I don't think I've even seen excessive or poorly behaved ads.
Kudos WoWI Team!

Tweeker, are you trying to get banned (again), or do you just like professing that you enjoy not supporting the sites upon which you rely?
