Habbox Adverts

[Crimson]

D;

Habbox Forum's Ads are TERRIBLE. For example, i'm writing this and above me reads;

"Windows Password
100% Find Any Password. Access Any Computer! "

I mean... Should Habbox really be advertising this? Whenever I go to the "Relationship" threads, it comes up with dating websites, porn and Gay Jock sites!

Topping this all off, I found this WONDERFUL advert.

Does this not symbolize Pimping to you? :S

Habbox don't choose them... :rolleyes:

[Pat McGroin]

The adverts use keywords on a page to pick what advert would be suitable. You were obviously on something related.

For like the 50th time (not exagerating) habbox do not choose what ads go up, google do and its usually based on what keywords are on the page your viewing. I think habbox does have the power to block the advertising of certain websites but they can't control what ads are there in the first place.

Google choose the ads. The ads pay for hosting

[Hitman]

Yep, as others have said google "choose" the ads, not HxF.

---MAD--- once said (I think it was ---MAD---), that if you find an ad that's offensive then PM him with the URL to where it leads to and he'll 'ban' it.

[Wootzeh]

Just block the ads.

[Adzeh]

If you find specific ads offensive, please PM ---MAD--- with the links to the ads and we can block them

We do not have any real control over the ads, as they are grabbed due to keywords on pages being viewed. You must of been viewing a page with a couple of words related to that advert :).
