    Default Funny TWC adverts?

    Just wondering if anyone else had noticed, at some point in their time on this site, the automatic adverts dotted about making strange or amusing decisions. For example:

    As a bunch of players looking forward to Kingdoms discussed how they would tear London apart and massacre its' inhabitants, the banners were advertising flights out of London to a number of faraway locations

    After reading a long list of atrocities comitted in Nanjing, I scrolled to the top of the page and was offered a selection of historically accurate Japanese tea products

    In a thread about the "Jewish Lobby" supposedly controlling America, tour guides around Tel Aviv were advertised. Those cunning Israeli tourism agents!

    In a thread about Canada, some guys joked about Quebec revolting and defeating the Canadian miltary. The adverts? Military training videos and papers on guerrilla warfare!

    Ave People of Rome,

    There were some advertisements that allowed you to download medieval 2.

    Outside of TWC, I saw a commercial that advertised tourism of Korea. WTF?

    At the moment I'm being advertised The Fart Button, SAS Experience, Military Video, Technical Documentation and Archive Storage. On the Main Forum page I was being advertised a Catholic speed dating service.

    ROFL! I see that one too. I guess it's due to the continuous references on the forums to Catholicism, Priests and marriage

    The best one was on one of those "I'm a loner" threads, and it was advertising a gay date service.
    This site also offers me adverts on joining the priesthood

    I saw that nazareth cross one a while ago.

    That was quite weird.

    You christans really get the modren world don't you.

    You don't like it when you neighbour builds a wall too close to your garden.

    So how do you think Muslims or Jews will respond when you build a big fecking Cross on a hill.

    Can't wait to see this bite you in the ass.

    So, is it a gay fitness club that allows you to work out for free or a fitness club with no gays?
