Recruitment on the WC

Recruitment on the WC

A Poem by Baby Ricochet
"

Why me lord

"
Am I the only writer being bombarded with recruitment ads from the United States Marine Corps on this site? What kills me is I took the Marine fit test that keeps flashing on top of the screen with the score I had when I graduated basic training and the test say's I "need room for improvement." Really?!?! Need for Improvement!!?!? Jesus Christ on a pogo stick I did my time. Stop bugging me to come back already. I know by USMC standards I'm an old geezer now so stop with the recruitment drive. I'm not going back. I'm old, slow and can think for myself now. All I'd be is a target.

Sometimes my friend, I can't blame them for the ads, the ads works as their source of income, it is a free website, this site earns by traffic(number of clicks/visits) and the ads as well..

I don't have any ads in my pc, but in my adriod phone, there is this annoying pop-up ads that keeps bugging me. The ads about this marine corps site, somehow they base your ads on the site you've been visited in the past, perhaps there is still a cookie in your browser that tracks that certain website...

Perhaps try cleaning up the cookies and a bit of your website history. Hope that helps, but truly it will just i think it will just minimize the ads in your wc website.

Perhaps more a case of 'been there had the tee-shirt' ? And now that this chapter in life is closed, its about continuing with this new exciting chapter, though the knowledge gained and gleaned from past experiences, makes us stronger and more appreciative of what we have and who we are!

A defining write, and so well conveyed !

I think the Ads somehow "know" what we write about... or sites that we've visited. I get a lot from sites where I've shopped. You are right - you did your service, and they should be offering you ads for free vacations and a private yacht...

SO if I start writing erotica I'll get better ads. It's worth a shot.

That's pretty much what i do
Most advertisements on this site build revenue whenever the ad is clicked, I doubt it really has any effect or is even associated with the government. Clever phrasing can get them out of a lawsuit as well as make the survey-takers think that the ones paying the ad are associated with the government. It's a common manipulation tactic used by most ads, especially on Facebook and this site itself.
Then again, I haven't seen the advertisement anyways. I run programs that block most ads.

You haven't seen it? You're the target age group. Gotta start working on them when they're young
Damn right you did your time now they need to let you be.

You made your point very well. They should leave you alone now.
