    Yes, maybe they are, namely how quickly we'd switch to YPN if that became the standard ad format!

    I'm 99.5% positive that this isn't an adsense ad ;)

    ebay ads do n't pay more than $0.03

    so just block it via adfilter

    As far the format is concerned it is simply disgusting

    Oh trust me.. that is a google ad.

    I right clicked one of the links (to make sure something crazy wasn't happening, and each link is in fact click-able)

    I'd have no reason to fake that.. If i were to create a fake adsense format, i'd make it look good... Unfortunately, I don't think i could make something that ugly, not even with my eyes closed.

    [​IMG]
    thats another one of the ugly ads appearing on the page... only the white image and the search button are clickable

    ads by google commonly does not display on my 728x90's... its veryyy common to not see the ads by google.. no point anyways everyone knows a 728x90 image is a friggin ad

    have been drinking UV blue (all we had left), but if you dont believe me I will PM you the URL and you can check it out yourself

    also, funny thing about the first ad I posted, is my site has NOTHING to do with laptops/harddrives, or anything computer related

    thanks for sending a PM. After checking you site, i got different results.

    I dont see ANY ad at all. However the page has google adsense Leaderboard code, i checked that using view source.

    So whats up? Ads not appearing?

    Catastrophical :eek:

    However if adsense is testing a new ad, improving the layout and style might just bring us a new positive AD

    Perhaps Google does not want to be associate with such an ugly thing.

    Could be related to their CPA program? I have not seen or heard of this any where else... thanks for the heads up.
