Uh, am I the only one seeing weird things - in siggys?
luvmykids wrote: Tish and Jocelyn, you both have ads in your siggys. I'm guessing it's not intentional, it looks like the ads on the home page
CantWait replied: So do you. No you're not the only one.
PrairieMom replied: so do you.
PrairieMom replied: so do I!
1lilpeanut2love replied: Yup! I can see an AD in your post Monica! WEird what's up?
mom2my2cuties replied: So do you Monica & Tara too I saw that on a thread I just replied to.
ETA - And nope it's not intentional - for me if it were intentional - it would be an ad for our company
luvmykids replied: Just soooo glad I wasn't imagining it!
But the weird thing is it's not in the siggy after all, only on certain posts
CantWait replied: Oh WOW now that's SPAM!!!!!!!!!!!!
lisar replied: I think it is part of the advertising on this site. It happens every now and then. I have seen them before. But I am not 100% sure.
PrairieMom replied: looks like the ads attach themselves to the first and last post of the thread. Anyone report it?
~Roo'sMama~ replied: Weird. I don't think I like it!!
CantWait replied: me either.
luvmykids replied: OK, did anyone else get a weird message on the board a few minutes ago? I got a weird screen while it was taking me to the posts and I'm wondering if it's connected
PrairieMom replied: I did, but I didn't pay attention to it, I just backed out and tried another thread.
luvmykids replied: Creepy. I'm going to pm Rod ....
CantWait replied: Yes, I'm getting some error messages as well.
Brias3 replied: Yep, I see it on everyone's in this post so far. It's a cute kid contest advertised by Google it looks like.
TLCDad replied: Its me. I am doing some changes to the way google ads are shown.
TLCDad replied: You will see some odd things going on as I work on the code.
1lilpeanut2love replied: Okay Thanks Rod!
~Roo'sMama~ replied: Good to know! It's a little weird seeing an add in your siggy, but it's not as bad as when I thought it was in every single one, not just the first and last of every thread.
luvmykids replied: Darn it, I thought I was finally going to get to use this smilie Oh wait, I just did
Thanks for letting us know Rod
MyLuvBugs replied: Yeah. I'm noticing it too. Not sure why??
TLCDad replied: Yeah right now it is going to be on the first and last post of every thread. The goal is of course the links to be relevant to the exact post or thread. Do not be surprised, if it changes a few times in the next several days. I will be testing them.

Kirstenmumof3 replied: Yeah I was just wondering the same thing! I went and checked my signature and everything!
redchief replied: It looks like the first and last post in each thread is getting an ad. I know that the PC admins allow paid advertising to help maintain the site. I'm guessing this is what we're seeing.
ETA: looks like this holds for each page of each thread.
C&K*s Mommie replied: Very interesting, Thanks for the heads up Rod!
punkeemunkee'smom replied: I am glad this was posted already because I just saw a Single Parent Love ad on my last post and was like I am not looking to date anyone new!
kristy-n-chad replied: What is going to be the end result of this advertising? I do not want anything in my signature unless I have placed it there.
jacobsmama replied: I thought I was going nuts....
My3LilMonkeys replied: I'm glad I read this....the 1st post I noticed it in was a fairly new person and I was debating whether or not to PM a mod and tell them that person was advertising in their siggy... I'm such a moron sometimes.
coasterqueen replied: Ok, I want to know why when I post ads about Single Parents keep coming up.?.
kristy-n-chad replied: Still wondering....
PrairieMom replied: Me too!
sparkys2boys replied: nope.. me either
