    Hello DP members,

    Till now I thought it is safe to open DP from anywhere but from yesterday some different kind ads showing to me that didn't look family friendly here is just one example, I had seen lot more.

    My question to @digitalpoint and other Mods is only one, Do you really think this type of ads should be shown on one of the top IM forum??

    Yeah... working on getting some of that toned down still. In the meantime, if you click the "x" on any of the ads, it will supposedly get smarter for you as a user.

    For now I had enabled adblocker for this forum because clicking on "X" will rmeove that ad but it will show something new that never gonna end, also for Dynamic IP users like me I don't think they will remember next day which ads I didn't liked.

    It should remember your settings... it's cookie based, not IP based.

    hehe then it must show me next time :p because I had configured chrome in that way whenever I close chrome, it will clear all history, cookies and cache.

    Hi Sean, there is no "x" when viewing the board on mobile or tablet. Thought I should just say. I don't know why loose belly fat and slimming pill ads should show up on an IM forum but trust you know best.

    Regards.
