My son is complaining to me and his mother on inappropriate ads and images he wishes not to see on the site.

Is there a button to push saying don't show this ad to him?

yes, there should be an x in the upper right corner to click, and one of the option under submit feedback is "add was inappropriate"

I tried clicking the X and it seems like I see them more often.

Exactly what happened to me. Hit the X for this gross toenail fungus ad I kept seeing but it only got worse, almost to the point it was the only ad I would see on this site. I didn't log into the site for about a week (vacation), when I did come back it was back to normal. Point is I believe clicking the ad choices X is a cruel click bait trick.

I could be wrong but I don't believe the site can control the ads. It's the ad service that they get paid from that picks the ads they feel would be most fitting for the site. Best option would be what has been suggested and click the X

You can 'upgrade to premium' to remove all ads from the site. You can find the link at the bottom of every page, all the way to the right, 2nd from the bottom.

THISSSSSSSSS sounds like the best option, and you would be supporting the site :). cdsforme wrote: You can 'upgrade to premium' to remove all ads from the site. You can find the link at the bottom of every page, all the way to the right, 2nd from the bottom.

From my understanding, it is correct the site has no control over what ads are shown. I believe the Ad Serivce is Google, which from my understanding shows ads based upon the computer's history.

Edit: Of course I reply to this thread and my ads on here become ads for AdBlockers...
