Anyone see inappropriate advertisements show up? I got an email with a couple pictures from a concerned user here. I dont see an issue currently and wanted to see if anyone else is running across something similar?

I haven't seen anything inappropriate. I have noticed that some other sites display ads related to things I've searched on in the past, I guess tracking cookies or something. Haven't seen that here.

I haven't seen anything inapprorpriate...what sort of things did the complaint mention Dallan?

The only ad I see at the moment, and for the past few weeks, is the same one - Allstate Powersports...an insurance company.

A lot of advertising is individually tailored these days, so what one person sees is totally different to everyone else. This is done using tracking cookies & advertising apps.
For instance; most adverts I see are for UK companies & products, whether or not the website I'm visiting is US or UK based.

We've narrowed down this isnt the case at all. Even with complete cache & cookie removal. I'm forwarding info to my advertiser as we get it.

At least it sounds like its not a general case issue, but a rare anomoly.

I used to get Australian related adverts...but this Allstate one is US based - Allstate Indemnity Company, Allstate Insurance Company and Allstate Property and Casualty Insurance Company: Northbrook, IL
