@notsonic:

PM Daniel about this. He's essentially the go to guy when it comes to the Ads on the WM Sites.

@notsonic: They are, they just don't always have full control over the ads. But Crimson Avenger is right: PM Dan and he'll get it sorted out.

On this. Thanks for the screen cap, it'll help me get it blocked.

Keep fighting the good fight,

Also, despite the terrible nature and execution of this ad, I have to say it: daaayum shes fine!

Ok, that's it.

Reported to our network. That was unacceptable, and should never have been allowed. There was enough info in that screen cap, namely the website being advertised, for me to say "block that site from advertising, and block any network trying to advertise them on our sites", so thank you very much @notsonic

I just got it as well, but for an iPad. Only way to close it was the close the tab. Sorry I didn't get a screen shot. :(

@Daniel: You should start including pictures of her for paid members. I can't imagine you'd get many complaints.
