So this Temu ad was not up long enough for me to Inspect it, but I'm posting it here anyways because there are lots of insects in one of the images. I am not afraid of insects but in the case that there are users who are sensitive to that, they do not want to see this kind of ad in the game. Looking at the rest of the Temu ads reported here, this is very mild. [img]https://imgur.com/V2AfZbf.png[/img] I also wanted to add this one to the mix: it is way larger than the usual banner ad at the bottom of the screen; therefore I thought I should lump it in here. Inspect text coming eventually. [img]https://imgur.com/eRoOUlz.png[/img]

TimeBucks:

Not only is it huge (which wouldn't really be an issue since it's at the bottom of the page), but I don't think it's appropriate in general; while various websites claim it's "reliability/authenticity", it's absolutely not appropriate for FR audience, considering children play this game too.

I got an ad for Sierra Nevada Hazy IPA. I may be the right age demographic for such an ad, but many players won't be. I'm on mobile almost exclusively so I can't inspect element, sorry. [emoji=guardian deadpan size=1] If I can manage a screencap I'll nab one.

Browser: Chrome OS: Android I'm on mobile so I can't get the source code. Unfortunately the ad vanished before I could get a screenshot. I know it had a lion on it, possibly logo but the advertisement, it's not well for those of us with darker skin if you know what I mean. Update. Could've sworn it was a lion. It's a mammoth and the site is Mammoth something.

I don't feel comfortable going on a site with ads that think little of us.

Browser: Chrome Os: Windows 10 Ad: Not directly recognizable if you aren't speaking German/know publishing scene but I got multiple ads shown for a right wing publisher and shop. I already sendt reports to Google (I assume they show me the ads because of my location/state I live in) but they keep turning up. The first image shows one of the ads itself (ad contains image of a member of the terrorist group NSU, general propaganda and what appears to be a protective vest? which I still wouldn't find suitable as something being advertised to people here), the other images contain the source code (it has to be multiple screenshots because of the size).

Browser: Chrome OS: MacOS 12.6 Ad: While technically not visually inappropriate, the text is suggestive "play with me" type advertising that you sometimes see in various inappropriate game ads. Also I think it being in a foreign language disqualifies it anyways? [img]https://i.imgur.com/QT8I3qq.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/4r6EluP.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/GQ8UmTR.png[/img]
