Personally, I don't think adverts like these are appropriate for a family site, especially when they're using deception to get socially vulnerable people to part with their cash:

Just a thought.

I don't think Alex the sit owner chose the exact adds that get displayed here. I'm betting a company the site is affiliated with chooses the adds. Lots of members(including me) use addblock programs/apps to block the adds because some of the adds can get very annoying like rolling across the screen or having sound when the mouse is over it. I know this place gets funded by the adds but the adds could be alot less intrusive. I'd much rater donate alittle bit of money periodically than have to see the adds.

Usually, site owners can block specific ads that they find unacceptable for whatever reason.

I just turned off my adblock and don't get any inappropriate ads , maybe they are targeted ads
