Some of these ads are really offensive. So much so that any poster would get a contact from staff for promoting the same message. Some are not conducive ads that would make any sense with a site that promotes Christianity...

Can you share some examples of the ads that are this way?

Scantily clad women asking the viewer to click but for mature audiences only, several others but that’s the one that really sticks out. I hope the ads are removed soon. They are very distracting. If those types of ads are allowed then a rule here that forbids linking to sites that has offensive links needs to be changed. It makes no sense otherwise.

I feel like we would see some sort of complaints if others saw them. Please message me right away when you see one so I can contact the ad agency to have it taken down immediately.

Will do. But I will say I would not say it was there if it wasn’t. It was definitely there.

Oh, I believe. Didn't mean to sound like I'm accusing you otherwise.

I have an annoying large one off to the right of my screen. I can't get rid of it when it enlarges.
I have not seen any ads in a couple of days. I hope they can get the issue resolved for you too. The ads are distracting and can be intrusive.

i have been noticing them in the last few days? I cannot see new threads because it covers them.

I saw them on the top and bottom of every page I went to. Some were very annoying. I saw one that was not appropriate. I’m just hoping they don’t come back. It makes you lose interest quick. :(
