banner advertising east european women!!!!!
Feb 24^th, 2014 at 12:21pm

Does CH.com really need to have a banner advertising eastern European women? or any other women for that matter.
I find it most tasteless.
While I do understand that CH.com might need the revenue generated from advertising to fund the site and keep it up and running, would it not be possible to choose advertising that does not degrade people?

Hey Potter and racer1, i see where you're going but there was no going on to sites looking for other people here or anything like them or concerning looking for a date or looking at people other than in a respectful way. And i'm the only person using this laptop. I am in a very very happy relationship with a wonderful woman and not looking at anything else.
All the best and wishing you lots of CH free time.
D3 is working well for me, Yippie!

Wow, i see you have over 7.4 million posts under your belt, is that possible?

There walks amongst us mere mortals...though rarely....and certainly not more humbly...those few
"special folks" whose utterances are worth 1000:1......................................we, this family, are in such a presence....

....I am not so much disturbed by tasteless ads...I see them everywhere, every day...what creeps me out is that I cannot go anywhere or do anything but that someone, somewhere, without my knowledge or consent...is watching

...as for this forum...the best advice I ever saw was: "take what you need and leave the rest"

best
