Shouldn't the layout / content be friendly to people visiting the site from the office?
I open up WSO and the ad banner on the right show a woman in a sports bra bending over with her cleavage hanging out advertising stock trading info and the banner on the top shows a chiseled men's torso advertising discount clavin klein underwear.
How do you expect anyone but a college student to visit WSO when the main page has a giant "FUCK YOU PAY ME" sign as the image for a thread thats been posted to the main WSO page. Do you know how it looks when someone glances over at your screen and you're on a blog with a header "BONUS" and an image that reads "FUCK YOU PAY ME" ?
Seriously. I know Patrick is smarter than that, its gotta be one of you other dickwads.
Use your fuckin heads.
uh the adds I get are all vacation adds, to like busch gardens...
not saying that tits in your face at work is good, maybe get a screen protector?
also, dont some of the adds conform to what you have been browsing...?
lmao
Another thing is when you are not logged in, the fucking register now popup comes up on every page you go to. Annoying as fuck.

Agreed. And another thing, whatever happened to the free vending machine in the I-Banking bullpen? I miss the double stuffed oreos.
Swagon, I think you miss getting double stuffed in the bullpen more than anything else.
Hell yeah I do
I work at probably the most laid back place of anyone here and I have definitely gotten a few weird looks because of the ads.
I have gotten a few wierd looks because of your dp...
Dayaam is right, ads conform to what you've been searching. However, just because I have adds showing Celebrity Cruises doesn't mean that they won't show some stacked woman or muscle head jock on the beach for the cruises.
Only solution is to not visit this site when other eyes are around. Patrick isn't going to stop advertising revenue.
But I can tone down the posts. For me it's easy to do what I want because I'm in the corner and my moniter faces the wall, but perhaps not so for everyone. DISCLOSURE: I'm in sales, not banking, and you should SEE some of the shit I've caught other people here looking at.
For the record though: fuck you, pay me.
Looking at WSO to begin with on a work computer sounds like a pretty bold move to me...
I will just assume that you have never worked before and disregard this comment.
I get Caribbean sex vacation ads. In other words, the system works.
Marcus, I agree with your point, but if I recall correctly, aren't you the one whose picture was a naked dancing girl until recently?
Firefox --> Adblock Plus
That would decrease Patrick's ad revenue.
Yeah guys, I downloaded firefox on my work laptop and now I don't even get ads at the top or side. Right now the only ads I have are about halfway down on the right for LBO modeling and the exact same ad all the way at the bottom.
I'm sure the ads are supposed to be based on what you typically search, but I definitely haven't searched for lbo modeling before. Maybe a recent amazon search for books triggered it.
To Deal_mkr, still a sophomore huh? You really think NONE of the users of this site access it when at work? That's the only time I open the site (and most sites for that matter).
The LBO modeling thing is permanent.
Tired of ads souring your browsing experience?
Check out lemonparty.com
I love me some lemon party candy. They taste sour, then sweet...mmmmm.
I had the same ads as Marcus last night. My place is on the chill side but it was still weird. +1 on Adblock Plus, bye bye Busch Gardens.
I have this man advertising custom shirts and....I HATE his face, he looks like such a prick, a real punchable mug. Have wanted to rant on that for a while.
just got adblock plus amazing
They have it on every browser, I'm on safari and have used adblock pro hence why I never know what people are complaining about when they talk about ads...
