Adverts on UKMIX

You might have noticed there aren't any adverts on UKMIX at the moment. It seems Google have suspended them citing "copyright violations" and provided a link to a topic from 2005!

While I'm waiting for Google to respond I'll be looking for another ad network, so I expect ads will be back soon.

I also wrote this post on Google+ about the subject. If you have a G+ account feel free to comment or re-share it.

I just read your post. Google make themselves look ridiculous once again. :-?

I hope you'll find another ad network really soon. :wink:

This is ridiculous, especially since, like you said, youtube is copyright violation heaven.

The post in question has been removed, hasn't it?

It's insane!

*hadn't actually noticed* :oops:

Yep, the offending post was removed. From what I can tell, Google are just incredibly jumpy around the whole copyright issue, so a single stray mp3 not caught & removed could be all it takes.

Anyway I'm experimenting with a couple of different ad networks now; if you see any adverts that are inappropriate please let me know.

The new adverts I'm seeing looks completely cool and fits with the theme of our forum :lol:

The ads have vanished again?

Is that why a yellow bar keeps cropping up saying something can't be displayed? Is it the missing adds causing it?
