Is having a blog and a special forum area so useful though?
 
Well, I don't know the "perks" of being a supporter. So there's nothing for me to knowingly miss out on haha (short of stuff like larger inboxes and no ads). x;

Irrelevant, but I still want to know why PC keeps showing me ads for rehab. Right now it's one for heroin. I:
 
Alakazam is the real owner of PC. And he's looking into your future and those ads are going to help you in your future.


I don't know what I'm saying.
 
Ah, okay.
Over two months on PC and I've never noticed the different sized avatars for supporters until now. @_@ Wow, I need to pay more attention...

@LilJz
Well then! D;
Haha I wonder what determines which ads are shown? Because it's constant ads for rehab and "teen help" (they don't specify what it's for) websites. >_>

You also can get an email address, larger avatars, etc etc. It's kinda nice.

Email? I guess that could be useful, if you want to join Neogaf or smth....

Probably your browsing history and regional settings. A lot of my ads aren't in English, and they're mostly about cell phones.
 
Mines were mostly about World of Warcraft :C

The ads depends on what you search for the most on your browser history? o.o
 
Ah.
I don't know why that would show up if it's that way. Unless it sees specific Wikipedia pages in my browser history... >_>" Haha...

I'm going to have to write down the ads it shows. It's weird how they all are about the same.

A lot of Ads on the web do, I don't know about PC's. But for my PC's ads, its like on other websites were its browser history based, so I'm deducing its the same here.
 
The ads don't bother me. Just confuse me haha. x; Wait- does it pick up the browser history on every device you use to access PC? If so, this makes more sense.
 
Wait we can admit to using adblock? Cause if so, then yeah so have I. But I did test the ads to see if its based on the browser, so yeah. And I would assume so, yes. I can't say for certain as:
1)I don't know what the admins use for their ads.
2)I am a simple user, using only common logic for the ads.
 
A lot of places use Google Analytics, which means when you Google things or use Chrome they tailor the ads base on where you go and what you search for.
 
That could result in some...interesting...ads. I:
I'm really not sure why they show me ads for rehab places, though? I don't remember googling or using websites pertaining to that. Well, aside from looking something up that was irrelevant to drugs and ending up with a mass amount of pictures of weed :?
 
That's why I was worried to admitting it, I don't want to stop them revenues. And google analytics is exactly what I'm thinking of, perhaps PC uses them as well.
 
Ah, okay.
I guess I'll just have to hope nobody I know gets on this account and gets suspicious haha. Then again, their seeing the ads will be heck of a lot easier to explain than seeing my inbox here. x;
 
So apparently I'm getting adds for World of Tanks. I guess that's good, considering the many game sites I go to.
 
Nope. But I was just off PC to cook, so perhaps I just haven't run into any yet.
 
Well... my internet was pretty weird lately.. but I do get some internal error messages.
