    Maybe what G needs to do is just read these forums from time to time. lol

    As much energy as you guys put into this, it would probably be cost effective for them to make use of your reports right here on DP! :)

    I don't think google bans for such things, especially first offenses.

    I know of sites that were doing some pretty blatant begging that got reported and are still running adsense, just sans the bright red click these links text.

    Yeah.. strange. I sent an e-mail today asking if something I was doing complied with their policies.. and they actually thanked me for reporting my situation, and stated that I was not in violation of any policies.. so I guess we'll see if I get banned eh ;)

    Of course it isnt working :D . I reported it to Google to long back.

    As usual I got a reply but no action - "Regarding the broken link, thank you very much for bringing this issue to our
    attention. I have forwarded the information you provided to our engineering team
    for further investigation.
    "

    You said the Report a Policy Violation link works (See first page of this thread).

    I said it isnt working and I have already reported it to Google and got a reply that they will look into it.

    The one on Google Adsense Support page

    https://www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/request.py?ctx=adsense_fe

    There is a "report a policy violation" link.

    Clicking on it , I get this -

    "Sorry!

    The document you have requested is not available. Please visit the AdSense Support home page to find answers to your AdSense-related questions.

    If you have arrived at this page from a link on a Google page or email communication, kindly let us know using our contact form.

    Thanks for using Google

    Why are you using that one? Google has put an option in the "links by gogle" link to report violations, much easier and it lets them track the specific set of ads that are being reported

    Well he got an inbound link, ads removed, and digitalpoint got one back. Sounds like a good deal!

    You'd think if he was getting that much traffic he could get traditional adverts and not have to rely on adsense. guess he's not much of a businessman (assuming he's a he, ofcourse)
