I only noticed it on a school computer because they are dumb enough to use IE6 without an Ad Blocker. Adverts for BlitzBasic on TGC's forum? What?


Since the other one was scaring you guys so much...

i don't believe TGC have much control over whats shown, i think it just might be adverts related to game creation.

You can block Adsense ads by domain. However, sometimes it's good to leave certain competitors on. If I get them on my site, and they charge more or have a site that's hard to navigate, I let them advertise. Double-whammy - makes me look better and I get paid for their inquisitiveness
