Just because I'm nosy - and it's none of my business and I'd understand if you don't want to answer...

But how much does the average monthly bandwidth bill for this site run?  Like, ball park figure...

I think you're over-estimating the validity of your opinion on this matter.

It's nothing personal, but unless you're one of the people who walks past me, it's not an issue. It'd be nice if I didn't have to worry about you caring personally, but again, not you I'm worried about.

The lower left one is so close to showing labia it's ridiculous...


Are you looking at a different picture? Cause it's just some broad in bathers. Nothing to get offended by. Besides, anyone who thinks these adverts are pornography is probably gullable enough to believe you when you say it isn't.

I didn't say it was offensive. I just pointed out that such a bathing suit was close to showing genitalia.

On that note, someone apparently opened the winged monkey cage.

And here I thought the witch had a sense of humor...

I had noticed that more than one person was replying to my posts with pictures of women in bathing suits and it happened within the same few days (to which I would always reply with a vastly more disturbing picture), leading me to believe that they were concerted efforts and someone who I apparently offended was suggesting they do it.

They stopped, though, so maybe I'm just paranoid (I had a plentiful cache of horror yet to unload, too...).

So if you've got more disturbing pictures, and you work with a bit of a perv, what's the big deal?

The best part is that some of the bodies on the new ones are obviously computer generated with a real person's face glued on.  See if you can find the ones I'm talking about.

I saw a lesbian True add for some reason the other day. They weren't nearly as hot as the regular chicks. Funny how they lowered their standards for that ad. Why not CG the lesbians to be like the regular models? Heh.

Too many guys would click, I guess.

Why don't we ever get any game ads really.  I mean hot girls are nice and all but it be nice for a change every once in a while.  (Like I don't know a game ad on a gaming forum.)

New True Banner Ad reporting for duty, sir!







EDIT:  Found a few more.  

EDIT #2:  Christ, almighty.  They just keep coming.  This is why I don't use IE.

I had a friend rig my computer to block these ads so I never see them anymore.

Holy SH*T, Bloodworth, you're right: I didn't even realize that that's what was going on, but in hindsight, it makes perfect sense.

my school just implemented a "Big Brother" like security thing from Cisco.  I have to be very cautious about logging in with my name and ensuring the system logs me out (don't want some perv using my login, and framing me).

apparently some new kid started downloading porn, on top of that i heard he was actually watching it like it was nothing during a class......and even worse it was not a one time thing.  What kind of twisted S.O.B. risks getting expelled ($$$$) for a boner?

While temporarily using IE in order to locate a certain Bald Britney ad I found some more True ads!



Someone needs to start telling me when new ones pop up.  I can only imagine the greatness that I have missed by not visiting NWR with IE on a regular basis.

I don't know why, but these ads annoy me. I thought the point of these ads is to get you excited...They are not effective.

But I ask, doesn't NWR have control of what they can and can't show? I mean, that you need the money to keep the site running but don't you have control over certain things?

EDIT: Never mind, read the whole thing.
