Regarding the shady asian women commercial on here

I am not ENTIRELY certain this kind of add is appropriate for GNet.

This is meant mostly for the owner and admin, but feel free to discuss.

I do not know what keywords promote this either, but yes it probably is a buy your bride online site.

I can not fully express how little I ever want to see a 'women for sale' ad ever again. What kind of mouth breathing turd burglar do you have to be to think that the slave trade is an appropriate/ethical or even sensible way to find potential mates?

$hade was cool. He's probably on the fashion threads or something.

I don't think mail-order-bride is always buying someone. It might be now, so they might want to shut down the program, but I've known people who do that and their wife is like a wife. They work on whatever they need to live happily ever after. I knew a guy who got his wife a job where he works so they could save money. Not really slavery. It might be better for everyone involved. There is a long screening process to try to make sure no one is creepy. Whatever. It's none of my business.

Catch: Wrap it up any way you want, if you pay to have a woman delivered through these services for marriage, it is slavery.
And how does getting your wife a job where you work bear any sort of relevancy to this thread?

I never did >_< I am talking about ordering yourself a bride through shady adds online >_< How on earth did you manage to twist that towards someone calling your friend's wife a slave??

Ya, $hade is on my friend list. Turns out he hasn't posted since 2011 so he might be dead.

If we keep saying gothic sluts on here, perhaps the adds will change back to those adds.

Why don't more people have AdBlock? It makes life much more wonderful.

...Not to be pointin' fingers or anything but you guys do know that it's usually cookies from other places that tend to skew what ads you get. o_0

For example, I had to look up "Enemy of The People" by MTC for a class assignment and now that ad is basically everywhere, even on G.net.

My clothes shopping is all over the adds in the side as well, but the one at the front page is independant it would seem. It is the one that's GothicSluts or something similar. And believe me, I usually do not shop for mail order brides
