look down at the sponsored links (ads by Yahoo), you will see one of the sponsored spots for "Cheats for Counter-Strike" :scared: ( I took a print screenshot)

I think It might be a good idea to talk to Yahoo and have it removed as I am sure it isn't a site endoresed by eGO!!!

oh and, hello all!!!
 
Hey Old Man, good time to pop your head in the door ;)

Anyway, I can't remember how the ads work, but they seem to be different for everyone. Right now I'm getting "Ford Edge Liquidation." and "Edge Truck Diagnostics."

Let me see if I can find the threads about how the ads work.

Here we go, this was a very good explanation in my eyes:

Yahoo adds work by tracking ur IP and seeing the sites youve recently visited, for example if your looking for a headset yahoo will know this and show adds for headsets, if you look at a lot of gaming stuff, strategys to get better etc then you might see adds for hacking. It also depends on what website your on, since edgegamers is a heavy gaming clan it would easily post hacks etc. So you cant assume that the same adds are for everyone.

I believe that it is an accurate explanation.

yeah, they are constantly changing, and some are even local, but I just happen to notice that one pop up a few times and thought how ironic.
