why the heck is all this weird "watch sexy girls live" ads on the top of my screen? i find this offensive, and personally i was almost banned from computer because of these ads. god take them down. i can't help but wonder if this is the day scorehero has officially sold themselves out to indecency.

If you've got Firefox, you can use this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/10

EDIT: Nevermind, didn't know it cut revenue.

ScoreHero has not "sold themselves out to indecency." The way I understand it, the advertisement agency will put any ad up that it feels without the consent of JCirri, and won't be taken down until JCirri himself tells them to take it down (which, rest assured, if enough people do not like the ad, it will be taken down.)

And, I just saw this ad, and I wish it removed as well; completely uncalled for.

Yes, please get rid of this ad as soon as possible. I can get a screen shot, but I don't really want that kind of a thing on my photobucket account .

I haven't seen any, but pornography adverts are absolutely offensive and inappropriate.

Isn't it possible that the porn ads you are seeing are not on scorehero, but are replacing the legit ads because of some sort of spyware? I don't think JC's ad agency carries any porn ads like the ones you're describing.

As Akaleth said, ScoreHero isn't at fault for the ad, it's the agency. JC will let them know about it and it'll be taken down. Blocking the ads isn't the answer, as that takes away from much-needed ScoreHero revenue.

I've seen the ad, just be glad it doesn't actually show anything :p.

Exactly. The last reported case of this was due to malicious software that was installed on the user's computer. In fact, JC even said:

... seeing as the same ads appear across an entire network of sites (SH plus 22 other publishers) with Terms of Use policies that specifically prevent such content I'm hesitant to believe this...

So, odds are it's your computer and not SH.

Yes by all means DO NOT BLOCK THE ADS ON SCOREHERO please! You are cutting ad revenue into the website, even if you don't click.

Just alert JC and he will have those ads removed. The fact this is here should catch his attention anyway.

No, it's the ads. I've seen one of them as well. There are also some ads that redirect you when the page loads, but I have no idea where I'm being redirected because it's in Firefox's blocked sites, ie. blacklist.

I guess that means that the money generated is on a per-view basis (which I have heard in a post from JC).

So if everyone simultaneously went on an F5 pressing rage for a half hour would we be generating a bunch of money?
