StGerolf Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I see very regular ads at TipIt who encourage buying RuneScape Gold for real money. There are also other ads who are dubious at least. I agree with the message from RuneScape, sites who are promoting cheating are no fansites. I work fulltime, and I can afford me to support TipIt. I did it one time, but it is already one year past, and as long as I see these BotAds, I will not support TipIt. If they really need the money from the Chinese sweatchops, then it be so. But I hope that with some support from bonafida players they can overcome. I promise that I will support TipIt as soon as they ban the BotAds. Are there other people who think I am right? Is it possible to hold a poll on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickyBee32 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 aren't you supporting tipit simply by posting on the forum? Or did you mean financial support? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StGerolf Posted May 1, 2007 Author Share Posted May 1, 2007 I was speaking of financial. I can understand that they need money, but sometimes they are selling their soul to the market. I would be happy to support them a little bit financialy, but not if they are so weak to Google. I don't support a hypocrite organisation, even if I need them because their information is good (I know I know I am truly a catholic for getting to this site even if I don't support them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gin_and_Tonic Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 This is not a debate, and is in the wrong forum. If you are serious about this issue, pm an administrator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamdan Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Why are you so concerned about it? Firstly almost nobody reads the adds, a decent amount of people would be blocking them. Besides, it's like the the ad's are propaganda, if somebody already wanted to buy runescape gold, they would be able to without clicking on an ad. So they don't add anything to the black market. As Gin_and_Tonic said, this is not the right forum, and if you are that concerned about it, pm an admin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StGerolf Posted May 1, 2007 Author Share Posted May 1, 2007 It is supposed to be the start of a debate, if I need to write it different in order to be a debate, please give me feedbeck or say where I should write it I have already write to TipIt, without any succes. Why accept ads which on other sites we should ban the site immidiatly (at least I would) If no one looks for these ads, then why are they still existing? If you think that these ads are nothing, then you should have no problem with spam as wel, it is basicly the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamdan Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Why accept ads which on other sites we should ban the site immidiatly (at least I would) I don't know a whole lot about it, but I believe tip.it has the space reserved for google ads, which is heaps of ads on rotation. Tip.it has no control over what ad appears, and can only manually block ads by url, so they have to have the ad reported or see it them self first. If no one looks for these ads, then why are they still existing? I said almost no one, and they exist because tip.it is trying to scrape up a extra few bucks to pay for hosting. If you think that these ads are nothing, then you should have no problem with spam as wel, it is basicly the same thing. Not at all, spam can be everywhere, ads can only be where tip.it chooses. Spam is untidy, the ad is neatly at the top of the site. Spam is hard to control, the contrary with ad's as consent must be given. Spam causes more spam, ad's do not. Spam is caused by idiots, ad's are caused by people wanting money, or wanting to promote something. I fail to see how ad's are the same as spam. Other than that they are both generally unwanted.

Lets_3ekout Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Nothing to debate here, and even if there was this would belong in an admins inbox or possible in the forum suggestions board. We are currently trying to clean up these ads, however as much as you may not think so it is a tedious and never ending job doing so, however I can assure you that we ARE blocking these ads, we just can't catch ever last one of them in a day and keep new ones from coming up, it just isn't humanly possible. ~Philip A Draconic Guide V1.4, Fimer - Multi-Timer Farming Timer V3.Dragon Boots: 39|Abyssal Whips: 16|Dark Bows: 1| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
