I'm now getting banner ads for a range of Gaggia coffee machines and I have to admit it's tempting.

Adverts top left and right. :(((

As they would say on a well known TV programme "and for that reason I'm out".

Does the other board have this issue? Might try my luck there.

The advertising revenue is the reason that that c*** only banned me for a day

Don't do it, the ad link is embedded in the screenshot so this just counts as an extra click for his revenue stream.

Exactly, about time we had more multi channel innovation. Today should be celebrated as a partial return to the golden days of this Board. Bleeds and Doug would have had a field day with this.

I've seen one for a "Halloween Party Set" today. That's a bit late in the day. :roll:

I liked the last attempt at adverts - about 4-5 years ago. For whatever reason, whenever I was overseas on business, the majority of adverts would be Asian Lady "Dating websites" adverts, but I never got those when in the UK. :?: :?:

Jet2 are currently trying to get me to fly to Athens. Well, little do they know that I have already booked a flight to Athens next Spring. More fool them, wasting their advertisement opportunity.

Love the Aviva ad that pictures the child with bib and offers them life cover for £5 in a rather passive/aggressive way.

Any idea why I keep getting adverts for Grindr & Porn Hub?

I thought choosing the personalised ads button would have helped

Evidently I've flicked the wrong switch and messed it up.

Considering some other options too.
