maybe a collapsable list with an order of least to most fucked up, but in a way i kinda like it as is, i mean it looks a lot like one of those "top 1000" porn sites

definitely can work out, seeing as pron advertisements are the sole cause of spyware(i remember a time when a pop-up of dog fucking would come on every time i started up IE). needs more words though

I've collected some of these over time... anyone who has any others, please add! This is my first article, so I'm not sure what to do with the content -- any formatting suggestions?

A lot of these would fit nicely into other pages as well (e.g. butthurt), so hopefully someone can find good use for them. --Bryce 12:09, 9 November 2007 (CST)

• It sucks. --Aghar     21:20, 9 November 2007 (CST)

Thanx for the constructive criticism, though some actual help would have been nicer... --Bryce 01:45, 10 November 2007 (CST)

This has the look and feel of an Unfunnypedia article. This is a good example of the cancer that is killing ED. --TheORlyFactor 22:39, 16 November 2007 (CST)

• I would like to see a list of these things that are "cancerous" and "killing ED". It looks to me like the quality control as a whole hasn't turned to shit on here, so I fail to see what point you are making here simply because one article is not all that great-Ket^{the KangaJew}_{Sodomy plz} 19:34, 28 November 2007 (CST)

Does this article need "moar words" or "less words"? Make your minds up ... if you're going to ask for help on the main page and then edit it out when it's given, then you're probably "a bit confused". As for the "cancer" that is "killing" ED - don't be such a 31337-ist drama queen, and put in some text that you think is more suitable and less "Uncyclopedian", instead of just standing on one side complaining about it. Either that or just flush the whole article and have done with it, but please - quit the whining. Tom Complex 16:06, 17 November 2007 (CST)

This page will need some serious cleaning before it becomes presentable and funny. My I suggest some collapsible menus and have each one organized by category? That would make it much easier to navigate. Also that last bit of text is shit. --Reven 17:36, 19 November 2007 (CST)

Well I made my first contribution here - not sure if I increased the lulz or just made myself look like a dick though --Aikalim

If anyone's got the patience, it might pay to clean up these images. I think half of them have lulz potentual but some of them are just redundant. If it's not going to tread on any toes, I'll be happy to take the mop to some of them. --Aikalim

The cancer that is killing ED? A little extreme, don't you think? Are you bitter from having been conned into joining some pr0n paysites?

A lot of these are worth a chuckle. One of the funny things about them is that despite the pr0n industry being an unthinkably massive and profitable industry, the ad-writers for these sites misspell words (I mean, not being able to get all the words in a single sentence correct?) and use terrible grammar. Compounding it is that these ads are depicting what we as a society consider to be the most intimate acts there is. The porn industry is hilarious enough in and of itself, and the ways they advertise really makes you wonder how anyone could have possibly been convinced to give their CCN to the people producing these (since you -know- they're still making money).

I didn't wake up one day and think "HEY, LET'S GO WRITE AN EPIC ARTICLE"; I was looking through some of the sex-related ED pages and remembered some of this funny content I had that would probably fit well into some other pages.

Honestly, I don't know how many w3rds should ever be dedicated to porn advertisments... I think that trying to contrive something to say about it decreases the funny.

Thanx to whoever put the images in a gallery! -- though ultimately, I don't think they should all be in one. Dumping it straight into the Porn article sounds like it would be cool, since Porn is mostly about the sort of culture surrounding it. I thought about that, but I thought that DUMPING A BUNCH OF ADVERTISEMENTS INTO THE MIDDLE OF A MAJOR ARTICLE WOULD BE A LITTLE ANNOYING... I'm not sure why having them nicely compartmentalized, even if only temporarily, merits even more bitching. Putting some of the funnier ones absofuckinglutely everywhere also would be neat. --Bryce 02:07, 28 November 2007 (CST)

• I still don't see how banner ads produze lulz. You argue that they're funny. Great, they might make you laugh but that doesn't mean they're automatically lulzy. If you find this funny, go to Uncyclopedia where I'm sure you'll meet similar people. Honestly, when I see something like

flashing at me, I right-click and select "Block advertisement". This article is and will stay cancerous and doesn't need to spread its cancer (read: the images banners) to other articles. Articles like these give other newfags like you the incentive to create similar shit and ED honestly doesn't need that right now. Besides, if we add "funny" banner ads to articles, eventually everyone and their grandma will add banner ads for their site to articles and turn ED into an advertising platform. Someone delete the article already kthx. --Uanadan 13:18, 28 November 2007 (CST)

• • IMO, the subject itself deserves an article, though my word isn't law. A subject such as this is bound to be rewritten or improved upon in due course. I do agree with your point about porn sites creating laugh-out-loud banners in order to get traffic, though I do not know whether this article gets or will get enough traffic to make a substantial difference to the hits of any given porn site, if you consider the magnitude of the gallery that would result from so many comical porn banners. There's also a point where the amount of images on a page tends to fuck up a browser, and I would think that this article would, if people mindlessly added banners to this page, eventually reach it and render the article unreadable and inaccessible-Ket^{the KangaJew}_{Sodomy plz} 18:19, 28 November 2007 (CST)

maybe im a complete tewl n008 or something but ED needs a button that can make a person go forward and back in a gallery. If that were the case i would definitely say "the gallery rocks" but unless people are running on a resolution less than 800x600 or on a huge monitor no one can see the pictures. At least with "the ads fucking everywhere" we can see them. but definitely need someone to go in there and resize everything.

[edit] What the Fuck?

This article is shit and will always be shit. Porn advertisements are for AdBlock, not for an ED article. --Uanadan 08:42, 23 November 2007 (CST)

The banners look like shit when you put them in a gallery. Perhaps you can just add this to the Porn article? just a suggestion. - Sabotender 3:33 24, November 2007

Even putting the ads into a gallery format hasn't helped (oh and thanks whoever took the time to do that) - the quotes don't make the images funny at all. There's only so much you can write about porn ads, and even then it's scratching the bottom of the barrel to make it lulzy enough for public display, so maybe intergrating it within the Porn article isn't a bad idea. - Aikalim

Teh gallery is shit, way funnier when posted absofuckinglutely everywhere. kudos to the idea of adding all of this to porn though, porn doesnt have nearly enough content(seriously the internet is chocked full of pron and it only gets that much coverage on there). I think ALL of these pictures would be a great addition to porn.User:iamusingtheinternets

• I propose deleting all of the images that include a domain name. They may be gross or mildly funny, but they are detracting from the purpose of the article. Notice how the wildly nondescript banner I placed at the top of the page fails to mention the name of the website being promoted, yet perfectly captures the spirit of pr0n advertising.

looking better Sabotender666 09:55, 4 December 2007 (CST)

Indeed it is - although we've lost the quotes for each banner. I think maybe if there wasn't so goddamn many of them, it'd be more effective; like eight lulzy ones (ie. horse fucking midgets, always a winner with the kids) as opposed to twenty odd banners that just clog the page. - Aikalim

• Probably makes sense to relegate the less lulz-worthy ones to a gallery... --Bryce 18:13, 9 December 2007 (CST)

• • I enjoy the degallerization, it looks really good, the text is gonna have to change one of these days but its funny to me at least right now-user:Iamusingtheinternets

i still think this would be better if merged with the porn article. the porn article isn't nearly as big as it should be. Sabotender666 22:46, 24 December 2007 (CST)
