Google is completely assinine in the handling of their ad system.
Both the staff of DCEmu.co.uk and it's host, NGEmu, know of the ads - there was another one on there that was spotted and posted on the staff forum.
As I posted in staff, I don't get why Google doesn't have "backups" in a word filter for their ads or *gasp* actually screen the ads before they put them into their system.
I'm sure it all equates to revenue. Google would rather get the cash from advertisers than have a legal ad system.
I wish people wouldn't use Google ads at all because of this - but in today's market there's really no alternative that gives the kind of revenue Google ads do. When you give free hosting, and still need to pay for bandwidth, there's really no alternative.
Google should be held responsible by the IDSA (or what ever they are now) in my opinion for promoting these "services", as they do very little to keep them off their system. Maybe that would wake them up, and they'd actually become a legitimate ad banner system.
