Redline Ad

[Blackjack200]

There's a sidebar ad running for on the forums for Redline, I'm not sure what it is, looks like some kind of supplement or something.

Anyway, the ad is a picture of a half naked body builder with a bottle of the product positioned to suggest that it's his penis. I don't really know too much about web programming or how much control the admin here has over the ad content, but can anything be done about this?

 

[OCGuy]

Are you saying you want the admin to remove the bottle, thereby exposing the real thing?

 

[ViRGE]

I haven't been able to bring up this ad. Could you please grab a screenshot of it? We'll probably also need your help to track down the specific URL of the ad, but for now a screenshot would be helpful.

 

[Blackjack200]

Thanks ViRGE,

Of course, now that you ask, I can't get it to show. If I see it again I will grab a screenshot and the URL.

Please, that's what my imagination is for :awe:

Saw the ad again:

I'm not sure how to post the image, as I can't find an option to attach the image to a post. Do I have to get it hosted somewhere first?

Humm, that's borderline. Nevertheless I'll pass it on to the forum admins to look in to. Thanks for all the info, as that should be everything they need if they decide to ask for it to be removed.

Then there's this one:http://s0.2mdn.net/viewad/2833268/campaign-160x600-yon-a.jpg which might not even be allowed as an embedded pic in a post.

Redline is a delicious hardcore energy drink. That is all.

Thanks for taking a look ViRGE, it's not as bad as I had remembered it, but still nothing I'd want someon walking past my cube and seeing (cue people telling me I shouldn't be posting at work)

So you get paid to post on AT? Must be great to not have to do any real work like the rest of us.

You should get off your pompous ass high horse to think that because you happen to work for an employer that locks you down, that you somehow have a 'real job'.

The notion that you should be working 100% of the time with no breaks while on the clock is just plain idiocy. Work places that enforce that type of policy end up with second rate employees. Excessive non work related browsing is a problem, but a few minutes here or there is no problem at all.

And there is these things called official breaks, where one should be free to do what they want asside from looking at material that is offensive to others (which, I might add is why the OP posted this).

I share the OP's concern, and I'd also like to add one. There is a victoria's secret ad that I also believe is not appropriate for those of us in the home or in the work place. We have wives and bosses and we'd hate someone to think were looking at something were not...

The Redline ad was deemed appropriate by the forum admins, so we will not be asking for it to be removed. But if there's anything else you guys have concerns about, by all means please let us know.

if a victoria's secret ad causes problems in your marriage you have many more problems sir. just pointing that out.

also, adblock plus works wonders.
