just to clarify for people, I'm fairly certain he is being sarcastic, so lets not have a fight in this thread.(And for alot of you there, I realise I shouldn't have to put this in, but well..... we've seen what happens on these forums lol)
A man might not be able to move a mountain, yet he will accomplish nothing if he never tries.
Well, I'm tired of these forums. Very little humor in them anymore. Adios all.
What "old ads"? As far as I can tell, Evony's ads have ALWAYS consisted of sexual innuendo and stolen artwork.
The old ads are being replaced with these.
*sigh* that's the third time I've had to post this.
PEACE
ok, I might be banned for posting this but here.
[9/16/2009 6:58:18 PM] ABakker: ok
[9/16/2009 7:00:00 PM] ABakker: but yes, if you have 2 different types of ad campaigns out now, please tell the community. They will understand the use of certain types of ads on adult sites, as long as there are also normal ads on family sites
[9/16/2009 7:00:21 PM] Benjamin Gifford: We definately have two campaign types.
[9/16/2009 7:00:28 PM] Benjamin Gifford: One for adult orientated sites, one for normal ones.
[9/16/2009 7:00:34 PM] ABakker: k, well announce that to the community if you can
[9/16/2009 7:00:41 PM] ABakker: they will easily understand
[9/16/2009 7:00:46 PM] Benjamin Gifford: We also have worked with google to ensure any site can remove ads from our content providers.
[9/16/2009 7:00:55 PM] ABakker: and you can get us older members to defend your actions then
[9/16/2009 7:01:26 PM] ABakker: otherwise, the issue may not be put to rest
[9/16/2009 9:46:08 PM] ABakker: I still advise perhaps making an offical statement. In it also admit that those ads to sell sex, not the game so much, yet they do attract more people to the game and such. I mean if your blunt like that, but also say you have toned down ads on more family oriented sites, I think it would go over better. Just my opinion though.
[9/16/2009 9:47:03 PM] ABakker: else it will come up over and over again, and we long term users can't really help you then
[9/16/2009 9:47:16 PM] Benjamin Gifford: As soon as I have some free time, I will.
[9/16/2009 9:47:21 PM] ABakker: ok lol
[9/16/2009 9:47:22 PM] Benjamin Gifford: Most likely in a few hours.
If I must be infracted for that, so be it. But both sides are correct. There is your proof.
A man might not be able to move a mountain, yet he will accomplish nothing if he never tries.
Well, I'm tired of these forums. Very little humor in them anymore. Adios all.
I guess if your browser history is adult site oriented, then you might be seeing different ads than I do.
PEACE
I find it funny that people complain about Evony ads. Have you seen half the commercials on TV? Does anyone remember when Paris Hilton did a commercial for Mercedes? Yeah, everything in that ad had nothing to do with the car.
Some of the ads are a little distasteful (or a lot depending on the person viewing it) but I have seen worse in beer commercials, car commercials, in magazines for a variety of products and even in local newspapers.
No; the very old ad's were decent. Were based around the same theme as the login page, with the swordsman image we all know. They're the reason I started (true fact: saw the ad of the swordsman and thought "oooh" and clickied the link; hooked ever since).
After that they thought it would be a good idea to put in the ads we all know and love.
After much explosive uproar and about a billion threads complaini'n about it they've switched to a third campaign which is based around the City View of your town.
