    That gets to me too. Had to take a picture for them in this one : http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=558121

    Because it just takes so much effort to type some porn words into Google and see if ads come up... :rolleyes:

    I'll bet one more genius will jump in that thread saying "NO YOU CAN'T ADSENSE BAN YOU" or something amazing like that.

    LOL - that's a prime example, it took until post #6 before anyone came in with the correct answer.

    Maybe they grew up?
    I'm sure its hard to believe, but everyone doesnt know everything about marketing. Once, you were a marketing retard too. So don't hate on the newbies when they come in asking for help

    Just READ, man. READ.

    And that's a pretty sad state of affairs when you have to use Adwords for p0rn...

    A noob board is genius, but I don't think the noobs would stay there long enough to learn anything. Everyone wants to run with the big boys. It would just be another place to refer them to: try the search, Google it, go to the noob board...hehe.

    I don't.
    DP has plenty of newer members that are capable of posting perfectly intelligent (and legible!) questions. It's just that so many people have absolutely no desire to be part of a community, they just want to use DP as a market place ... which is fine as long as it's kept in BST - but it seems that every section of the forum is turning into a market place these days, instead of a place to learn and share information.
