So screw you....

[Theo]

This banner appears on DNForum, have the words "screw you" become socially acceptable in a business environment?

Saw it myself. Didn't care much for it. Sure didn't click on it.

 

[Tia Wood]

Yeah, I couldn't believe the rich jerk banners were appearing here either. Not just for language but for the bullcrap steaming from the pixels. I know advertisers are paying each month, but does DNF have to accept anybody and any banner graphic??

 

[Theo]

I think that it's not appropriate. "Got screwed" is borderline but "screw you" is like flipping the bird.

 

[randomo]

I agree - I come here for a positive and productive atmosphere, not to be insulted in a borderline-obscene way.

I also agree, it will be removed in the am.

Glad I am not the only one that found this offensive. I was very surprised to see something like that allowed in this environment.

I didn't pay attention to it. I thought who cares about that message.

Same here... actually, I got a good laugh out of it.

I also like the "Wanna party like a rock star, chicks dig it" one.. excellent!

 

[Raider]

They do it to get your attention, Not caring who it insults.

Snake oil at it's finest.

insulting and childish marketing by a jerk who got real lucky selling it big time a few yrs ago. I think it was a Clickbank program at that time which was heavily mareketed.

 

[clasione]

I saw it... Didn't care for it, but just chalked it up to marketing..

It still is a clickbank program
Easy to work out who the affiliate is

Good luck to him

Nothing offensive from my point of view, however maybe that is my cultural perspective

 

[DomainMagnate]

don't really care, whatever works for him

 

[Reece]

I had a good laugh reading the Rich Jerk ad and getting insulted at the same time

The Domain Graduate ad is genius (and certainly more appropriate!) k:
