Advertising on the active forum page

That's the way of the world these days Nana and ads appear everywhere.

GNHQ will have accepted these ads as income. Sites like this are not run for charity - they are businesses and reap a profit for their owners and shareholders.

Totally get that Anya but in this day of data tracking I wonder how they got that I needed Pampers ads of all things ??

Luckily I do not receive any ads, sorry GNHQ!

I agree N&G Pampers are not quite appropriate for our age group.

At the moment along the top about sending money to Europe which I have never done. At the side there is an ad. for car dealers, have been looking so that makes sense. I usually just block these ads out so they make no difference to me. Just hope we don't end up with flashing ads on the thread pages, wouldn't put anything past them now.

I have Air France and Lufthansa this morning.
It is many a year since I googled airlines.
Not that I don't think about it many times a day, this being one of them and the day is still young ?

I use Adblocker to get on to the forum and I don't see any ads. It's great.

I agree rascal best invention yet.

N&G Have you posted anything like "I do pamper my grandchildren . . ." ?

I've got the Pampers ad too, and I can assure I have definitely NOT Googled them or ever said anything about pampering!

I did wonder if it might be because we had a thread of Soops that had pampered pets in the title, but probably not.

I'm being invited to a digital marketing event.......??

Probably a job lot - is it on Mumsnet too?

I have the Pampers ads too.......

I am getting used to the font, but I don't think the way the title of each thread is headed under the "I am on" "Last hour" and "Last Day" lists is more accessible. Surely putting a line return between the topic name and the thread name would not be difficult? Then they will be on different lines and not seem to be all one link - as it is, if visitors click at the start of the heading they are taken to a list of all the threads under that topic, when they want to go to the thread.

Thanks Lara so it's site specific not personalised ?

I won't allow myself to be persuaded to rush out and buy Pampers then :-)

I don't have Pampers - I have insecticide and something called a Hori Hori knife. If they advertised a Hari Kiri knife I might buy one - my bathroom fitter has gone AWOL!!

I have put an Ad blocker on
so I am not cost-effective for GN

I have bought Pampers but they don't need them any more thank goodness.

Yes Charleygirl I'm glad I know about it. I think I read about it on here a while ago.

rascal it was the fellow who trouble shoots my computer as and when who suggested it.

The only advert I see is a tiny one for JDWilliams over to my top right corner is that because I m on an iPad ?

Oh Charleygirl you are lucky you know a fellow who can trouble shoot your computer. I just muddle along, trial & error is the name of the game for me.

Pampers are not quite appropriate for our age group.
They are not big enough for our backsides either.

Always Discrete "sensitive bladder" products are also made by Proctor and Gamble which makes sense. If you have the factory and the technology to make Pampers just make them bigger .

I am reliably informed by my DD and her two year old that ASDA nappies work perfectly well.

As I thought Proctor and Gamble own Pampers . I detest all these massively powerful comglomerates.

rascal I have a problem getting him to accept money!

The previous fellow was also very good but was a non stop talker but took that into consideration when billing me and it was never that much. He died tragically and very quickly from an aggressive tumour.
