The way you worded it gave the impression that forumotion does not care about it's users which of course it does.
Of course forumotion cares about money too as databases and servers are not free to maintain and the employees certainly do not work for free.
My point was, that just because forumotion needs the ads for it to make money, does not mean it supports or endorse malicious or decieving ads. They don't, but the problem is like I said we use many different ad partners across different parts of the world. Not everyone gets the same ads either. They change depending on what part of the world they are in.
That said in order for us to find and get rid of deceptive and bad ads we need users to report them to us. That requires ads to be on for this to happen.
That said, putting the obvious money stuff aside, even if forumotion had unlimited money and could disable the ads without losing revenue (I an being very hypothical here.... Of course this not the case), it still would solve the real problem as in order for us to find and get rid of the bad ads, the ads have to be on and be seen and then reported to us so that they can be taken down.
Forumotion has resolved alot of the ads and most of the ones reported to them, unfortunatelly ones do slip through the cracks like I said and when this happens and it is reported, then they deal with it.
