    how about zorpia.com - they get millions of page views every day and carry both Yahoo and Google ads on the same pages. You can only see these once you are "logged in" but EVERY pages carries both in the members sections.

    I reported it to Google as a TOS violation a few months ago but they still do the same thing. It makes me wonder if accounts turning over tens of thousands of $$$ a day get some kind of preferential treatment??

    Any ideas?

    It never ceases to amaze me what some people will do and somehow get away with.

    Google must be running this search constantly

    http://www.google.com/search?q="please+click+the+ads"

    It would be interesting to run a SERPs chart on how long sites stay in the top20 for, how many are infact forums like this talking about such naughtiness and how many are actual offenders.

    If sites are routinely rising to the top and vanishing then we know Google Staffers aren't relying on reports.

    • blazedvisions.com use Clicksor, but I bet they don't like it anymore than Adsense do.
    • neokisses.org/?page=helpus
    • narutomania.com/index.php?start_from=50&ucat=&archive=&subaction=&id=&
    • mneptok.com/article.php?story=20040607235343628
    • tauniverse.com/404.php
    • marc.emualliance.com
    • rshit.mypunbb.com/viewtopic.php?id=16
    • purepsp.net/blog/

    and this guy may be pushing the boundaries: classicdrummer.com/blog/?p=17

    Lets make sure we go to advanced when posting links and make sure they're not live by unchecking this little box...

    Good point Sarah. If you guys leave these links live they can be tracked back to this thread by the person whose site you are talking about and even though we may not be responsible for them getting banned they could take their frustrations out on DP or even the people who have posted here in the thread by click bombing the sites.
