    So screw you....

    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.

    If you have to explain what your domain name means, give up, it's a crappy name!

    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??

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

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

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

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

    If you voted for our current President in 2008 to prove you weren't a racist,
    please vote for someone else in 2012 to prove you're not an idiot. Thank you

    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.

    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

    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!)
