How can they be relevant when every f**king one Ive seen is for B.A.S.T.A.R.D credit cards!!!!
Looking at this thread now, the adverts are for Scooby/Evo/Jap related stuff.. seems as relevant as it can be IMO

This should help the bandwidth costs, not because people will be clicking on the stupid ads, but because they will get p!ssed off and not bother surfing ScoobyNet. Bandwidth (and costs) reduced

David,

I think they change, you're right spotted one for Jap cars but most of em seem to be CC.

As I said above, it takes from a minute to an hour for Google to visit a thread and decide what would be relevant advertising.. but it will get there eventually, but on page-turns for heavily posted-to threads, it'll appear to be default ads all the time..

Question

So if a thread has a sex theme we'll get **** links or ***** growth ads?

That'll be interesting.

<cynic mode> A subscription fee would be better, but then that would probably kill off most of the trolls, muppets and multiple user name windup merchants, which would seriously reduce the hit count SN gets, which would reduce the attraction for advertisers. No wonder anything now goes on SN. </cynic mode>

I've been waiting for about 3 days now for a moderation request to get sorted, no wonder with this all going on. Again, why waste time on moderation, this would reduces the users, which would reduce the hits, ooops, forgot my cynic mode this time
