Well I got a few chuckles reading this thread....some of those ads! Bobbleheads! Vote for Bob Sinclair!

I get boring ads...yellow pages, advertise here....
oh well.

Yeah, I'm totally against them - I'm not even sure they work, I mean who clicks on them anyway?

Oh well.

Kind regards

Let's see if there will be ads for pharmacies that don't need a prescription.

Pharmacy
No prescription
Cheap medications

i suspect the answer is either:

we are not a democracy yet

or:

the deputies decided

Two ads I got:

Learn to Buy Cheap Meds From Overseas Pharmacies. Free articles, guides & information

Great Pharmacy Buys
Low price prescription pills Fast links to trusted online stores

I wanted to provide the links, but I didn't want to break any rules.

Can you filter ads?

Sorry if I'm upsetting you Bob. I just wanted to find flaws in the system. I'm not against you putting up ads if you want to. If I don't like them I can block them out with my browser.

I really do hope you make some money off them. I'll even click on them once in a while if that helps.

((((((((((((Bob))))))))))))))

Still love you.

Free laptops Bob!!!

Couldn't you just get a bunch of those free laptops you"re advertisng now and resell them?

Your little announcement that you don't endorse these schemes doesn't mean anything. You ARE responsible if you choose to put them on you site.

How much money do you need?

Random ads are not conspiring against you. It just shows how inaccurate Google's software can be. It's nothing personal on the part of Google, I'm sure.

sunnydays,
You wrote,[...ads are not conspiring against {you}...]
Are you saying that I wrote something that could be a rational for anyone to make a conclusion that I am thinking that a >conspiring< is taking place here toward anyone including me in relation to ads being placed here by Google? If so, could you post here what it is that you used? If you could, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.

they're just ads

Firstly, bob says this isn't for profit, yet why would he propose to have the ads in the first place, as decoration? So we can get 50 percent off xanax? If you want to make money, I don't care, just why say otherwise? Anyway they are just small ads at the bottom of the screen, why is this an issue - just ignore them

Why would you think that Dr. Bob is making a profit on something that costs him money to maintain? My guess is that the ads likely bring in some money to offset his expenses but do not cover the entire costs.

But doesn't Bob get research grants and things for us? I mean he gets to publish orginal research material from us....sooo.... there should be money in that? Surely?

And anyway, he gets to plug amazon whenever we use the 'double quotes feature'...I think he gets a cut of the profit from that if we then go on to buy something, or something like that....

Kind regards

No, sorry, didn't mean to imply that you said that at all. I was just trying to point out that the ads are random, so I don't see the point in getting too terribly upset about specific ones. Of course, there are plenty of valid reasons not to want the ads on the site, I was just trying to point out that focusing on the specific ads may not be the best way to get the ads removed, if this were a poster's goal.
