They are going too far! I mean, the ads are absolutely everywhere, easily clickable spots on games, there's about 10 or 20 on the side of your profile, and then there's the new ad system which when you go to a link, this zwinky or HP pentium and other ads pop up and prohibit you from loading yoru page for about 3 seconds until you can hit the "Skip ad" button, and another 13 until the ad just goes away.

I'm sorry to say, but pics or it didn't happen.

Screenshots next time you see 'em.

Any suggestions of where the ads can go on the page?


How about under the controls spot on games.
Instead of putting them right above and below the game.

There is always a HUGE empty space under the controls and next to the comments.

You could usually fit 2 ads there.

And if the about/controls take up a lot of room, you can make the comments longer so there is space for ads.

If you don't like them, go to Mozilla, Ad-block plus. Done.

Ooh,sorry about the double post but I found a drug one yahh!!!


I don't like the Ad's but once I saw a ad for a sex toy or some thing I've been trying to copy the image and show it to the Mods and Admins but I can't find it so I think it was removed!!!!


AG doesn't put ads like these on the site, because this is supposed to be a "teenager
friendly", and "family-oriented" gaming website. I think I and some other person, maybe
Carlie, that remarked that there could be a virus that's showing you these ads, not the
actual site itself. You should definitely get either a virus scan or get some kind of ad
blocker or flash blocker. Or all three. The more the merrier =P

Seriously though. Ads at bottom and top of screen. Perfect!

Yes. Anything not family friendly is due to a virus. Stop all the late night downloading and video watching.

As far as normal ads go:
Fer serious? You are going to complain? Drop by NG someday and see if you still are annoyed with our ads.

The adds don't really bother me, just the FunCards or whatever add with the girl going "I've got a birthday surprise for you..."

It would be nicer to move them a little bit farther away from the games, sometimes I accidentally click them instead of the bottom of a game menu.

Kid...

Those are anti-drug and anti-alchohol adverts. It is telling parents that talking to their kids about these things is a good idea as opposed to going "Yeah, whatever. Go do your own thing out there in the real world without any guidance."

So, you get the "User Phail" award for trying to point out bad ads. Kthnx.

I had an idea for the ads that are at the top and bottom of games. You don't need to remove them but instead:

Make it so when you click the area (not the whole page just the ad) will turn grey and say something like are you sure you would like to leave armor games. That would be good for games like anomorphus if you accidentaly click of the screen.

But please, DON'T remove the ads and make armor games a payed game site! I know that they are an important part of armor games but since this is game site try and find a way for them not to get in the way of our gaming experience.

As much as i hate the ADs you guys should know that with out them AG woudn't exactly be here. They fund the website so everyonce in a while try clicking on one so the website stays up
