I don't know where to put this, but there are some really racey adds today on BB. I snagged the banner image and it shows a scantilly clad women with the following text:
Browse her picks.
A hot new girl joins every minute.

Get ad blocker. I see no ads. It's probably has something to do with a subject matter. I'm not exactly sure how the ads are picked here, but I'm assuming its on the content of the site. Of course I don't see them anyway. :)
To get people to donate is very difficult and most will not do so.
It costs at least a few hundred dollars a year to keep a bulletin board going and so ads are sadly part of most of them.
Unless it becomes a paid site, ads will be a reality so just download an ad blocker.
It takes all of about 3 minutes - it's really not a big deal.
I got the same thing; but I think I know where it came from. My wife buys many things on the internet, including ladies underwear. So guess what comes up, ladies in underwear as well as other items she was interested in. I suspect you are getting the ads here on BB that reflect what someone on your computer has shown an interest in.
I showed some of the ads to my wife; and she said, yes she was interested in that type of thing on the computer the day before.
The ads are generated per user.
The ads that you see are not the same ads that I would see.
When I had ads, I had ads for horse equipment and ProPresenter, the software we use for projection at church.
So BB allows ads, Google knows by your cookies what you've looked at and so it generates ads based on your interests.
It probably knows you're a guy maybe because you looked at fishing gear or something and now is posting about women.
Icky, I know but that is the way of the internet!
Is it because I did a Google search yesterday for "Rush Limbaugh calls woman a sl*t" to find the transcript of what was actually said?
Only I spelled the word out.
That's the only thing I can think of.
But I thought I had been seeing that ad for two days.
