A2k has gone porn

Actually, this is a big problem for me, one that greatly reduces my pleasure of hanging out on A2K. Here I sit, trying to enjoy the cleavage-filled ads on the site. But noooooo .... discussions are popping out all over the place, especially political discussions. Weak as I am, I click on them, and sometimes even participate. And that is the end of my peaceful morning.

Craven, please find a way to filter out all those people talking on A2K. If not, I'm leaving the site. I swear!

These ad links to what is commonly refers to a MMorpog game. massively multyplayer role playing game. Players build vilages and troops then attack each other to gain further resources. Players band together to form alliances which attack other alliances.
the company that hosts the game makes money by selling "artifacts" that can enhance various aspects of a players ability to grow food, raise troops or attack levels etc. No porn is involved however the ads are designed to appeal to young men (and women). some people have criticised the game owners for scamming. no refunds are given EVER.
Interestingly the pictures for the ads are drawn from lingerie adverts and costume cataloges which i would expect you would not object to in their usual context.

This forum has a great post that explains how the game’s revenue plan isn’t exactly player friendly (and players aren’t happy about it!)

That's one of the meanings, yes.

I have always maintained that I buy A2K for the articles.

I was wondering what the ad was for as it seems to indicate it could be porn. I was afraid to open it here at work as the pc police may arrest me. And the use of porn itself in the title entices people to read further ---- it did entice you didn't it?

Honestly it doesn't bother me - just caught my eye - and was curious what the ad actually was for - but like I said I don't like to click on it because sometimes I don't know what I could be in for - like the screaming email link that yells "I'm looking at internet porn!"

Don't give me away...

And you wonder why I wrote about porn....tongue...cheek... get it?

ah too bad - I was going to take a look last night at home - but was too busy to go the computer.

why is porn always naked women?


i dont wanna see boobs..


where are all the men in this? Hmm?

shewolf - I was just going to write exactly that - where are the pecs, the crotch shots, the tight butts, the muscly thighs? Enough with cleavage, big deal!

If more women were willing to shell out to see naked men, the internet would produce more for you.

The market simply reacts to customer demands.

Right here in Joisey. Trouble is I'm shy, so I can't post them.

lol

One of the largest expanding markets is porn for women (do The Google ) - not that I would know anything about it.

ha! I've got a camera and I'm not afraid to use it

*quietly lays money on the table*

How dare you, shewolf! I'm not that kind of boy!

[ogles the money anyway]

Adds to money on table.
