Empire Site | Ads On Site Not Suitable for 'Family Server'

The title explains it all. Should ads located around the Empire Minecraft website NOT display contents not suitable for younger members - we are a family server right?

The basic jist of the ads are images of pretty girls, generally from Russia, telling me that they want to chat and ect.

Opinions?

I think they're meant to be targeted - have you been internet shopping for a russian bride lately? I always get server hosting ads

I think that the ads targeting you reflect whatever it can tell from your internet usage. I see stuff all the time that makes no sense to me, but I haven't seen anything inappropriate.

Recommend an ad blocker.

[edit: I know what the early bird gets... but what does the late bird get?]

I do believe the ads are indeed based on what google considers to be of interest to you based on the webpages you visit. I get all general household stuff and computer hardware related components due to my search history.

These can be blocked completely by using an adblocker.
I can't imagine they would show hardcore images and ads and such, they would have to fall into a certain rating depending on the server hosts specifications, in this case I imagine pg13.

I see ads for Zoosk , to bad im under 18...

I believe google adds has an option where the webmaster (Justin) can set the type of adds he wants people to see... maybe there is an <18 setting over there.

I do have it set to the most family friendly G rated settings possible in Google. I believe I can block individual ads by advertiser, I will look and see.

I wonder what would show up for me if I turned my ad blocking software off.

Me too!

Mine are Asian

I get a mixed bag of ads. Considering a large number of pages in my history are from this website, it seems to depend a lot on what page/thread I'm viewing.

When I'm looking at threads concerning building things, I see ads for things like Jo-Ann Craft Store. Threads about technical issues generally get me hosting and server ads.

Ok, so in the vain hope of seeing pretty girls that want to chat to me, I turned off ad-block.. and i get...

Ads about jobs for driving dump trucks.

mine are all stock and money related >.> i swear i only check the exchange once every few days, im not obsessed, i swear.

For some reason all of my ads are about metal detectors, like to find stuff hidden in the sand on beaches. I have no idea why as I have never had any interest in such things.

maybe they are age stereotyping those ads? or someone in your household lol.

The funny part of the joke is I disabled my adblocking software and all of the ads are about dedicated data hosting. Maybe I should look for a new home.

Well I'm nearly 31 and haven't hit the find metal stuff on beach phase of my life yet.

yeah, nearly 31. only a couple more months. perhaps then I will acquire the need to comb beaches. actually, the more I think about it it does sound kinda fun.

:/ The closer I get to 31 the more I feel the need to stop spending over fifty hours/week at work, escape a dead-end job & stop moving every two years. waaaaah

Most of my friends in their 30s just shoot beer cans.
