How are ads bought on PC? The tacky dating ads are...well, tacky & easily ignored, but there's one ad that pops up from under a Nike swoosh that advertises specialized funeral services. Am I the only one seeing this, or is it something the site should be concerned about? This hardly seems like an appropriate site to be hawking funeral services...

P.S. I poked around & found the ads are only present when one isn't logged in.

We don't have pop-up ads (or pop-under ads), so if you're seeing something like that, it's probably not coming from our site...

if you are using Google, they offer an app called Ad Blocker Plus that gets most pop-up ads and even embeds... it's free~
