    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

And I wonder why my wife always asks what I'm doing on Fauna

I'm sure Stephanie is very nice, but not my type, and I wonder why I get those. Never a handsome guy :shrug01:

She's got nice
sunglasses.

I get one of those type ads, too. That girl, coincidentally, is 2.8 miles away from me...and she wants to meet me. I haven't clicked confirm, either...I don't think she has nice
sunglasses
but I can't see them in the picture so that's just a guess. I've never noticed her name :shrug01:
 
Don't worry soon as I receive my check worth millions from the other side of the planet that was sent to me from that billionaire I never met before he died, I'm going to buy all the ad space here & fill it with photos of me & Stephanie.
 
Hey, talk about coincidence...not only is my girl 2.8 miles from me (just like Lucille's), her name is also Stephanie.
I sure wish I could see her
sunglasses.
How awesome would it be if they had the same pair?

Besides your google searches the ads also now come from keywords in videos you watch on youtube and gmail keywords prompt your ads there.

Here the title of thread can dictate the banner ad from google. What you are searching for and what google perceives you are looking at.

To demonstrate I will now search this site for the word "intuit". I started a thread about the credit card processor. Let's see what the banner will be.

I've seen that happen. Do each of us see our own banner?
I still do not understand where Stephanie came from, I promise I wasn't looking for anything remotely resembling Stephanie. My last searches I remember were for some guitar accessories.
 
Do I have this wrong, but it can create an ad based on what you are looking at on fauna? I was on a computer today that would have got me in trouble if I ever searched cougars or anything of the sort, yet I saw the ad. I've had it since new so I know no one has searched anything than what I have.

I might have an interest in finding something resembling Stephanie (either of our Stephanies); but I'm not searching for it online or locally (I doubt bringing a Stephanie home would go over well with the gf, lol)
 
LUCILLE!!!!
I just got your guy ads...get this crap off my computer and send Stephanie back, please.
 
They're definitely based on cookies! Mine are always from places I've been shopping online for back-to-school stuff for my kids. Not nearly as interesting as yours, Nick!
