Hey mumsnet wtf is this ad on about?!

[winecigsandchoc]

Just scrolled to the bottom of a thread on the app to see this @mumsnet

Is it some kind of play on "no" is a full sentence?

I've got an ad for blinds on mine.

I've never seen that one before I normally get pregnancy and baby related ads!

Whaaaaaaaa?

WTF

I saw that one last night too, And thought wtf!

Doesn’t it depend what you have been looking at yourself? Or someone else using the same device?

Doesn't the triangle in the corner of the advert mean that it's targeted? That means it's based on your online activity.

I’ve got tea on mine
I do think the ads are based on browsing history

Considering my adverts are for Quiz and New Look I'm also thinking the ads are targeted.

If you click on the arrow on the ad top right then this is what I get (see pic)

It's not targetted.

Hi there OP,

We're really sorry about this, it should be blocked now, but do let us know if you still see it.

I'm still getting that advert... this was just a moment ago.

That ad is so bloody misogynist. They're not mature, they're all young women. Just because they're not teenagers, bleurgh... never mind the "always say yes" offensiveness...

Love that the ad is still showing on this thread - I've also reported this just now (before I saw this thread)

I've got a singles dating site advert
I'm middle aged & married.

I get this one, which makes me smile. I'd definitely let this chap housesit for me...but I'd stay with him anyway.

They're not very good at advertising are they - We're not exactly the target audience are we?!

I wonder if they've paid per view or per click... @mnhq do you know?

If it's per click then every time we click on it we use up their ad budget. What a shame it would be if all their ad spend was wasted on the wrong people...

I haven't been looking at that or anything else dodgy trust me! Glad it's getting sorted

Hi there all,

We're really sorry about this - we have now blocked all dating ads, so it should be gone for good. They can sometimes slip through though, so do let us know if they're back

Generally the ads on here are downmarket. I spend a fair amount of time online and it's rare to see so many poor quality ads on one site. They are the type of ads you would hate to accidentally click on.

Still advertising prostitutes

And on this thread...!
