I am trying to start a protest about the ads on Armorgames. There are a lot of inappropriate ads, and there are little kids that play on it Armorgames! Younger kids do not have a decent place now to play games without being exposed to profanity and pornography. If you feel the same, please express your thoughts here. If enough people protest, Armorgames may block offending ads, or at least let you select your level of ad exposure.

they need to also cancel members who put ads in the comments

There is actually not too much of that on Armor Games. On sites like Yahoo, there are a lot of annoying people that do that, but here they just get banned.

You mean ban? They do, but the ad bots just make another account. There isn't much the mods or admins can do about them.

Best... ad... EVAR!!!!!

It's like some sort of rts game. The weird thing is I haven't been anywhere of that nature to pick up that sort of ad... I'm at a religious school who has a websense filter on everything. I mean they even block youtube videos that are questionably more mature than pg13. (and even then some that are obviously not more mature) I have deleted all that cookie and history garbage as many ways as I know how and I still get that ad on AG and Youtube. I'm not sure it's from going to questionable sites. ..but then again, who knows

Yeah, see, that's an ad which I would say is legitimately inappropriate for a Pg-13 website. Despite not showing anything, it's definitely sexually suggestive and "orgy" doesn't have many other meanings.

Actually it has picked up another term which is just having alot of fun (non sexualy)
Although I havent heard it used this way much, only aa few times when I the sentence couldn't have made sence the other way.

I go to a public school and they just block some sites entirely (including youtube depending on who is browsing online)... which kind of makes you think what would happen if the government passed CISPA... anyway, that's actually kind of lenient for a school.

I have no trouble with the suggestive ads when they pop up every so often. Then again, I'm a 30 year old man on a flash gaming site.

No, the ad that confounds me the most is the Club Penguin ad that sometimes finds its way to the top of the page. This is a PG-13 site, yet ads are surfacing here that only appeal to a 12-and-under crowd.

The weird thing is I haven't been anywhere of that nature to pick up that sort of ad...


But you were curious enough to click on it.

Please. If someone said, "let's go have an orgy!" I know exactly what would come to everyone's mind.

I don't either. But, it's not appropriate for a PG-13 website.

This is a PG-13 site


This actually isn't a PG-13 site. You have to be 13 to have an account. You can play on AG no matter what age.

And ads give money to AG. That's the only answer, and every argument you give is invalid.

If this was a school computer than prolly some other kids were watching porn before you got on, you may thing that they block everything but they are far from it, and my school blocks almost everything, its prolly worse than the great firewall of china since they will block even certain parts of a site like the league of legends wiki.

Also i know later i will feel really weird for saying this, but whenever I have gotten that ad was when I was looking at mature content and not any other time.
