I know everyones sick of 'whats platinum doing wrong now' threads, and I'm not one to start them, but this just irked me:
I've noticed this Girls gone wild ad(which is porn) is shuffled underneath the Teen+ and E rated comics here.
-It's in between the comic and the next/last button. Everyones gonna see it.
I thinks that's going to far, not only is that ad not in the users license agreement previous to the site change(which tons of users added there comic before)- but there are younger viewers to comics who might click that thing, and who knows what their parents will think of your comic if it has raunchy ads on it.
I'm not one to bash porn, I luvs it personally, But man I don't want it on E+ or my own T+ comics. -_- (I know family's who take that very seriously)
Am I'm being to anal about this or do you agree?

So Drunkduck is putting porn ads under our comics now?
I'm not going to say it's the worst thing I've ever seen.
Quite frankly, there's always going to be someone offended by anything. ( I've gotten some nasty letters myself. Go figure. ) I personally will allow most things on my page since most of my readers are mature enough to handle it. Although I will agree that perhaps girls gone wild might be in a bit of an off taste for the E and T+ comics. But it's what pays the DrunkDuck costs and it's not exactly like there's the capability to set specific ads for each class of comic right now.
For all I know the ad wasn't even approved by anyone, they just bought space on the site and nobody had time to notice it and block it or anything.
The ads all come through a third-party place so Platinum doesn't get to approve them before they go out or anything. However once we've identified a problem ad, they can go and have it omitted. :) We've brought the ad to Volte's attention so hopefully it will go away soon.

lol j/k^^
Yeah, I'm not happy about that at all. I've had some complaints from readers this morning. Hopefully they can nip that in the butt– if that keeps up we might have to more our archives to our own host. Drunk Duck is starting to look like Times Square with all the ads flashing around.– But I guess the bills have to be paid! I just think there are better ways to do that– I know some ad networks have filters and stuff– if this one didn't I wouldn't use them.
I contacted them this morning about this, and the ad has been taken out of rotation.
The problem is, they use different ad networks and some ad networks don't let you control the content, some do– and this one had that stuck in there so they had to track it down an have it removed. Crisis averted! :D
Hopefully they can nip that in the butt–
Hey DJ, I hate to be an idiom nazi, but I think that goes "Nip that in the bud". Unless you meant that as a clever pun. The only reason I even mention it is because as a pun it's genius, and I just wanted clarification.
Oh yeah, I still saw that porn at around 12:30 CST. Guuuuys

Frankly, I'd much rather have a GGW ad under my comic than some of the other things I've seen. …Like that stupid Ben Stein movie. (I actually wrote an email of protest about that!)
It's too bad you guys don't have a system that would allow a more adult ad rotation for mature comics. I really don't care what's down there, as long as it's not overtly political.
