New forum ads?
Have the ads on the forum gotten more ... interesting lately? Not that I wouldn't like to learn the secret to getting women to desire me, just curious if everyone else is getting the same ads.
Re: New forum ads?
No, it's just you. Anything you'd like to share with us?

Re: New forum ads?
LOL!
You're all getting the same ads. The way it works is that someone buys 30 days worth of exposure and they can display whatever they want. I don't censor anything expect *BLINKING* (animated) ads. FWIW, apparently a higher than usual number of forum members are interested in getting women to desire them
Anyhoo, ...
If less than 5 paying customers do that, we go to backfill, which means that some people get to display for free. Currently Paul Wheaton, forum members (PM me if interested), and the new book I contributed to. Note .. if you're a regular/friendly, want free ads, and don't mind the company (of paying advertisers) PM me!

@Ego - Haha, nice on the gaslighting.
@jp - Nevermind, totally just you.

Re: New forum ads?
You know, I never noticed there were ads until you just mentioned it.

My favorite is the monkey one. Someone was just like "fuck it, let's get a random animal image"

Oh and I got to download Spartan Warrior's short book for free today! So that's cool.
Re: New forum ads?
You guys are making me turn off my ad blocker to see what I'm missing! Not a bad guerrilla advertising strategy.

Gah! Ego, you had me going. I logged off after I read your reply, and wondered all night why I was getting those ads. All I could think of was that I had to google a couple of phrases from the last book I edited that were ... interesting, and maybe that triggered them.
I have Adblock on my computer, but I've been reading the forum on my gizmos lately, so I saw them.

Re: New forum ads?
The "Ingenuity Gap of the U.S. Sexual Deficit" thread is making the ads interesting again. I'm assuming it's that thread. I suppose it could also be the "ultimate pants" thread triggering them.
Makes me want to be more creative with my thread titles.

Re: New forum ads?
They aren't triggered by any keywords. There's a human being changing them individually ... or at best an algorithm giving suggestions to a human operator. But the ads are the same for everybody on the forum.

Re: New forum ads?
There must be some kind of algorithm. When we're talking about financial stuff, all of those 'make money now' ads show up. Same with travel. Now there are several thread titles with trigger words (sexual, pants, shame) and I've had at least two ads with panty shots all day.
I wouldn't mind so much if it wasn't always women. I've got to figure out how to trigger some ads featuring men. I don't need underwear shots. I'd settle for a guy posing in turnouts or something.

Re: New forum ads?
Nope. A person buys a space for 30 days and uploads a picture and an URL. I approve or reject it within 24 hours. If I don't it auto-approves. The person is free to upload a new picture/URL at any one time. Usually advertisers use the same one all month but some do a lot of A/B testing.
The hot girl ad is probably still on because it has the most clicks by far, so maybe you guys have some explaining to do

And here I thought 7Wanna had single-handedly delivered us from loner-nerd-dorks to the cool kids, at least from a price per click perspective.

I promise to do my share of clicking if you start picking ads with pictures of men I want to click.

Re: New forum ads?
Are you charging admission in a subversive way?
I also apologize for single handedly changing everybody's ads.
