I'm more worried about those kinky Evony ads...

This comes up every time there's a new banner ad on the front page.
I play World of Warcraft. I also play Civilization. I used to play another online game called Gemstone III. I play Farmville, and Evony (sucked in by the b00b ads, but ended up being decent for a while), and Mafia Wars, and Chess, and Poker.
Maybe I might enjoy Aion. I know a lot of friends have asked if I tried it out. I might like it.
Do you want them to advertise for World of Warcraft on the main page of this World of Warcraft site? "Come play our game." I already do; it would be pointless.
If you don't want to try out Aion, then don't. Maybe it will look interesting to someone. Maybe someone who hadn't even heard of it before will click the link and find they enjoy it.
Quick anecdote; I used to be very active on the "Star Trek Roleplaying" bulletin boards on the very old Prodigy Classic (this was back in like '95). One day there was an Ad for Gemstone III on the homepage of the Bulletin Boards. It showed a Warrior with a sword and shield, a Dwarf holding an axe, and some kind of spell caster. I clicked the link and found an all-text medieval roleplaying game that I spent the next 10 years playing.
So go again and click on Aion. You might find your new home there; you never know.

I'm more worried about those kinky Evony ads...
So am i.
I recently googled it becuase the ads becomming more and more daring, i thought there might be something fishy about it. how they want gamers to click it at all costs. found a site where its said its owned by a
Chinese gold trading
company. and aswell. they discussed the fact that many evony players had been infected by trojans upon connecting to it..
Now i see them, i dont read, "Come play, my lord", i read "Come, give us your wow account, lets us infect your pc, let us take anything else our trojans can log from you".

The diffrent ads, so far
Link:
The site who claims it to include malware, and mentions the owners

If you'd like to report a fishy ad, please e-mail feedback@wowhead.com
As for the main-page ad, wowhead has them from time to time and it's just to pay the bills, it's not going to get us removed from the official fan site listing, and who stays on the main page for that long anyway?
Feedback about the Aion frontpage ad belongs
here
