Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

[Double A]

There aren't any space ships in South America.

 

[SamSniped]

That's what the Hitler clones want you to think, AA.

I keep getting ads for a German dating site when I browse on my phone. The frank European sensuality doesn't bug me too much, but I do find it odd since I don't speak German or come from anywhere that does. Anything that could be causing it?

Google has bad Algorithms? At any rate, I use Adblock on all of my devices, so I have no idea what sort of targeting they are trying to do with ads at me.

It would be nice though for some of the more questionable adverts to be removed by an admin if that is possible.

I get this too but it's a banner ad so it doesn't bother me. The ad.track thing forcbibly redirects my phone's browser and that does bother me, OTOH.

You know, if it wasnt for all these misbehaving ads, I'd turn off AdBlock for this site. I do for other sites with well-behaved ads.

I just noticed the computer questions thread was over 4000 post. Does the 1000 post not apply outside of Tavern cereal threads?

 

[Double A]

And this one is over 3400.

I asked something similar about another thread and a random mod basically said it wasn't needed. There doesn't seem to be a hardfast rule on when threads get serialized and when they run forever.

 

[Birdjaguar]

Exactly.

 

[hobbsyoyo]

So...if someone decided to start this thread over, would it be closed immediately?

 

[Valka D'Ur]

The longer this thread runs, the less useful it becomes. I'm sure that many of the questions have been asked dozens of times. Maybe the mods could compile a list of those, post the answers, and incorporate them into an OP for "Frequently Asked Questions: The Sequel."

Leave this one available to read for the less-common questions and entertainment value.

 

[Double A]

My vote goes to "FAQs 2: Electric Boogaloo."

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

I just noticed I misspelled serial threads again. Gahh!

 

[Valka D'Ur]

Misspellings happen. At least you noticed and can watch out in future.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

When does a thread get classified as a cereal SERIAL thread?

 

[Double A]

Only when Manbearpig is afoot.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

Who is that?

 

[SamSniped]

He's totally and completely cereal.

I'm still getting the Domino's pizza banner ad that stops the page from loading. Has anyone tried to fix this?
