I just noticed that new advertisement on the top of the page in the regular forums.  A naked oriental girl laying on a bed with a laptop?  Is this some way to get IT people to buy thier stuff or did they pick the wrong image for the right ad?  Or, more likely, do they think that we are so lame as to not get a girl that we will buy anything with a naked girl on it?

 

 Wait... there are ads in the forums??

That was my reaction.  I went back to the main (non-forum) front page and refreshed and refreshed and refreshed and couldn't get a naked girl to come up.

Which probably proves their point that geeks like naked girls.... but really, who doesn't???

I never noticed. Maybe because I only allow sidebar ads though. Host that one so we can see.

How about I just give you a link to the image itself

OK tried to make it an actual link but it didn't go through, and I have no place to host it myself.  If someone else wants to host it, be my guest. 

KattMan:

It won't load directly. Nothing happens. ImageShack is free, ya know.

Loaded directly for me, or I wouldn't have posted it that way.

Anyway, just go to the responses for penny wise and look at the ad up top.  If you are blocking them, that's not my problem. 

KattMan:

Agreed, and shame on anyone who is.

Not sure why I can't see it in the forums though. I am definitely not blocking.

The link worked fine for me.  There's a joke in there somewhere about wanting the girl to do the opposite of the tag line in the ad, "We Make Network Management Suck Less," but I can't quite come up with a good one.

 I was about to post a couple, but then I realized that mine were really lame too.

If that's how she dresses when managing my network, I bet she's easy! 

And it's reasons like this why I block ads. Right, I'm going to buy your shit because there's a naked girl in the ad. Uh-huh.

Yeah, this type of advertising just appeals to the most base instincts.  It's utterly appalling...

 

...do you think she would have sex with me if I bought their product?  I mean she's obviously turned on by technology.  She kind of looks like my type..  female.. naked..

Hey, now, beggars can't be choosers... 

  There is an ad there? Is it somewhere behind the naked girl?

billhead:

Now I see what people mean when they say that porn is clogging up the interweb tubes. Looks like she's got herself stuck good and proper in that interweb tube - my free trial will never get to me until she is unjammed.

what an ingenious way to get so many people to turn off their adblockers and refresh ads in search for a specific one. i wonder how many extra impressions did that bring. as for having a naked chick managing your network, you're warned in advance - she sucks less. not a very promising offer.

I'm guessing heterosexual women and homosexual men? Gymnophobes?

I'd jam her tube.

I stand by my assertion. Anyone who says differently is just in denial.

You know I originally mentioned this with the idea of what insane marketing guy would do this?  But look what I ended up doing, what insane marketing guy wouldn't do this?  Give that ad creator a raise!

Breathing might be optional, naked is a requirement.  I don't mind if she wants to hold her breath.

Too lazy to get her undressed?? I find that is part of the fun personally.... but ok.

Or if she is, you know, recently deceased.

Right, what is she going to care?

how low have we sunk?  Are we in the swamp yet?

I don't know I can't see the swamp through the SwampShack.

I am pretty sure his standards would be MUCH lower.

What about naked female bodies recovered from a swamp?

What about naked female bodies recovered from the Swampshack?

What about naked female bodies recovered from Spectateswamp?

 I think that qualifies as more disturbing than Wolf Creek.

This ad is a perfect explanation for the occurances mentioned in the Negative Packet Loss thread!

I knew it!! Those magic stones looked way too much like boobies. The only question is... where did he put the rest of the body?

In the file bodies.txt.

I think the head and hands were left in Arbroath.

Hmm, after seeing that picture sucking less is the opposite of what I want.
