Much to my surprise, I clicked on the link to (17-10-09) Not Allowed - Auto-Removed and there was a listing for fake coins!

This surely cannot be in keeping with the CCF philosophy!

Interesting. That's a site we auto-remove whenever it's mentioned here in the Forum; I suspect Bobby will be displeased to see it's been stuck into his advertiser list. Was it one of the ads at the top of the page?

Unlike the rest of the Admin staff, I don't have a life () so there's nobody here to act immediately upon it. Rest assured, someone's gonna get the riot act read at them.

No, it was at the bottom. In fact, as I type this reply (the quick reply), I see it just above me!

I guess the important thing is that it SHOULD NOT be there and it will eventually be taken care of. It is reassuring that the CCF is in fact consistent.

As far as I know... the stuff at the bottom is relevant to your browser history and not CCF per say... I get advertisements with geological field equipment in my window!!

Well, SPP, I hope that this is the case, and it was just a false alarm I created. Probably is, since I closed the add and I see a message "ad closed by google" However, since I do not browse for fake coins, I do not know why that would appear.

It's called retargeting. Websites that that engage in it leave a pixel/cookie on your browser when you visit their site. Then the add appears on websites that participate in adsense. My browser shows a $0 down black Friday offer from the YMCA!

I blocked it from the ad inventory, if you see it again more than 24 hours from now please let me know.

Thank you for pointing it out!

Thanks, Bobby. I can see that it is a constant struggle to keep this site clean.
