I'm surprised to see a huge ad for this on Thoughts. I don't really feel one way or the other but wonder what other users think.

The way the ads work is that Jason has X number of tech-related ads, but Y number of ad-spaces. If X is less then Y, then the remaining spaces are filled up with whatever the ad-server decides to run there. The admins here don't have any control over it, other then attempting to sell as many tech-related ad spots as possible so X is never less then Y.

I am totally against gambling, especially online! And I betcha $20 that there are folks out there who agree with me. :razzing:

Yeah, I've noticed a HUGE number of "Jagbet" ads today. Normally you'd be seeing my "filler" campaigns (muvee, Picasa) when I don't have a paying ad, which is more often than not lately. :? Anyway, every time I load a page today I've see the Jagbet ads. To be honest, it's kind of exciting, because it means the site is earning a few more bucks that normal. ;-)

I've banned certain campaigns before, but to be honest, I play poker for fun with friends and bet small amounts of money, so I don't really view these ads as morally wrong.

Any ads are fine with me, as long as they are not pop-up.

When I start seeing Porn ads, I'll get upset, but something tells me that will never happen ;)

You wouldn't be the first upset one if that were to happen. :lol:
