TheColdBurn Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 OK first of all I want to state that I completely understand the reasoning behind the presence of the adds. However I am left to wonder why some of these are showing up on this site. I mean does the typical video game modder strike you as some-one who is terribly interested in Cloe Kardashian's champagne brunch? I am also of the opinion that they trigger far to often for the small amount it cycles between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVampireDante Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 We don't pick the specific advertisements ourselves here. The space is 'hired' out to third party ad distribution setups, who in turn are approached by the ad makers. It is those ad placement companies that decide what ads from the ones they have from their 'stock' to put on the space they gain from the Nexus sites.

ffa1mf Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Holy cow-was there a competition to get to go to Cloe Kardashian's champagne brunch? Dang, must have missed that one while I was trying to get that Justin Bieber stuff. Totally agree with you cold burn. I don't think I even actually see most ads on the web page, but it really makes one wonder exactly what the company posting the ads is thinking sometimes. But then, they just get paid to put ads on sites and why would they care where the ads get posted. Its about selling ads, not targeting an audience with appropriate ads. For me, if it helps keep the nexus going then I could care less whats advertised on the site. In fact, recently most ads have not been appearing - just the "Connection has timed out" message where the ad should be. However, if the Vampire has any influence with the advertisement company in this area, please get that Kardashian competition back on the site ASAP and as often as possible - I wanna apply.

ub3rman123 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 I usually only get video game related ads, like WoW or Skyrim, etc. Maybe it's a regional thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pronam Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 <- Is getting keyboard ads lately after looking for a new one. I rather don't mind as I prefer real ones vs any weird flashy ones >.>. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeepSoul Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 It seems like they are adjusted to your location. I'm from Sweden and I get ads from companies that only exists here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
