US stroke advert

[madbadger]

As PH is a UK based site is this an appropriate advert?



Excellent sentiment, but I'm not sure dialling 911 is good advice.

I had a US ad too - but not that one.

It pays to help keep PH going I guess

[madbadger]

Nothing against ad revenue, but this just seemed rather misleading. It's not particularly obvious it is a US ad, (and there are some complete muppets on here. )

[Petrolhead_Rich]

Also some Americans, or was that included in the umbrella of "Muppets"

It's all about target audience, most UK, some US, so the adverts follow suit....

Also, I think 911 works just as well as 999, but I may be wrong on this. Not about to try it out

PH Shows different adverts depending on where it detects your location as, which could explain this. When you saw the advert were you connected via an office network which might be bounced via the states?

I was at home, Mr Will. That is how I thought it was supposed to work.

When I am in the office I get Dutch adverts.

I thought I remembered you getting funny adverts before!

Not sure why it is showing when you are at home though, so I'll keep my eyes out for it and see if it's appearing here.

I had heard that too, would make sense but I've never tested it. Ours here is 000
