What is with the ad (flashing as well) to the left - Carnal Nation?

1. Sex site for adults

sounds like porn to me.

2. I admit I clicked out of curiosity.....

All I saw were articles, but I wouldn't be surprised if there's some pron in there somewhere.

From their "guidelines" - "We accept visual or other media content that either is relevant to the publication it accompanies or constitutes a complete submission in its own right (e.g., a podcast); however, in order to remain “advertiser safe” and avoid the strict parameters of 18 USC 2257, we cannot accept sexually explicit imagery for publication. "

3. I mean why do we have to have an ad if we have a gold star? Then, why do we have to have a

flashing ad?

I guess I'll send admin a message, but it's the weekend.

4. I don't see any flashing.

Maybe FireFox has to do with that?

Anyway, I don't see the big deal about the ad. There is always an ad in that spot. In the past people have complained about anti-Hillary ads there and others, which probably were auto-placed due to this being a political site. I see nothing offensive about a non-pornographical site about sex being advertised on a liberal site.

edited to add: Oh, I finally saw it flash. It flashes a few words, and then stays the same for the rest of the time.

5. I didn't click on it so I am not saying anything about content - I thought we didn't have

to see these ads if we had a gold star, but it's mostly the flashing - I must have a physical problem - it causes irritation and headaches and I become angry and resentful.

6. There are ads in more places if you are not a donor....

If you logout and look, you'll see banner ads at the top plus google ads, I think. The ads are very minimal for donors.
