I woke up to another email from another advertiser cancelling my account. I’ve had Media.net ads on the site for years. The site has not changed. Traffic is higher than ever. I’ve done absolutely nothing different than I’ve been doing. I have no idea what low quality traffic means and they will not tell you what it means.
Media.net is owned by Yahoo – the company that allowed millions of people’s personal information to be hacked from their system. They are another left wing run organization, like Amazon and Google. It sure does appear like they are purposely targeting websites that do not follow their left wing agenda.
At this rate, TBP will become totally dependent upon donations to keep operating. Fuck Yahoo. Fuck Amazon. Fuck Google. TBP will not be silenced by you left wing motherfuckers. We will continue to reveal the truth about you and the rest of the Deep State trying to silence the little guys.
From: Media.net Compliance team
Dear Jim Quinn,
We have been consistently receiving low quality traffic on your account. We take our advertiser’s interest very seriously and as a result, we will not be able to continue monetization of your account.
Your media.net account has been suspended with immediate effect.
We understand that you may want more information about the low quality traffic we detected. However, in order to protect our proprietary detection systems, we are unable to provide further details. We recommend that you review our Program Guidelines that can help you understand what may have happened.
Do you have the contact ADDY? WE WILL NOT GO QUIETLY!
Seriously, if for no other reason than to annoy the fuckers?
Sorry, i dont know where the space for new messages is.
Some rightwing techie, ( if there is such a thing) , should create an App to block companies like media.net ads that attempt to silence dissidents speech. Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God.- Thomas Jefferson. Fight fire with water.
Please check out my latest blog post about the Rothschilds conquest of the Middle East:
Foreign Office, November 2nd, 1917.
Dear Lord Rothschild,
I have much pleasure in conveying to you, on behalf of His Majesty’s Government, the following declaration of sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations which has been submitted to, and approved by, the Cabinet.
“His Majesty’s Government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of the object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious’ rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country”.
I should be grateful if you would bring this declaration to the knowledge of the Zionist Federation.
Yours sincerely,
(Signed) Arthur James Balfour

Years past you were just a small fry, a minor annoyance to Amazon and Yahoo. Now your website has become more popular, hence more people visiting with various and sundry left-wing snowflakes complaining to the “compliance team”. Take it as a badge of honor.
Jim I am with you all the way on this one Yahoo and Amazon,Facebook Twitter and more are all cat litter from the same bag
Left, Right Conservative, Liberal Democrat, Republican they all have been infiltrated at the start in some cases and during the initial public offering of their stock.The So called Deep State itself is a puppet entity controlled by off planet entities. Our fight is with spiritual wickedness in high and low places. With you and all other human beings who have not abdicated their human sovereignty. Fight to the finish.
With each cut, we sink more and more into the swamp. Thanks for the updates on the trials TBP faces, it’s important your readership understands your predicament to be able to step up and stand with you. It also confirms the trajectory the country is going that you won’t hear from F Chuck Todd. Keep up the fight, play the man and always stand for what is upright. The greatest victory is to not become like Them.
“displaying your product or service via adverts to a huge number of audience that are not necessarily interested in what you are advertising to them. ”

You can say that again. Been online for decades and never bought one thing advertized like that.
My adblocker is up to 46 just while reading these comments.
It’s obvious what is happening hear.
All these “social networks” are realizing that their models do not work, and so instead of trying to fix the problem, they are using the old tried and true tactics of attacking those who appear to be “winning”
indeed it is a badge of honor, to be singled out by these left wing propagandists, all the same organizations who continue to support the failing ideologies of the previous administration.
Kudos Mr Quinn.
STUCKY DID IT!
It’s all his fault.
Everyone else was being nice and sharing and stuff and Stucky came in a messed it up for everyone.
If he hadn’t questioned the religion of peace and tolerance, we would all be just fine.
For shame.
You’re why we can’t have nice things, Stucky.
Oh, blow it out your feather boa, Gilbert’s.
It might not be due to ideological issues.
A couple data points:
1) On mobile, I’ve several times gotten hit up by some form of mobile adware/malware when visiting TBP
2) Firefox is saying there are 37 potential trackers on this TBP web page. This could indicate some form of ad fraud being run through TBP – not that TBP is performing it.
ABP reports blocking 21 for me. Adguard also reports 21.
Adblockers are just blocking all ads. It has nothing to do with this issue.
WTF? The ads are the best part.

Just letting you know Jim, Artemis shot this young buck today and I named Medianet and we shouted Yahoo as he was hung. I will spare you grisly detail.
However I will tell you that real women bow hunt and track deer patterns for exercise.
[img[/img]
And no EC, I am not pressure canning the Nads for Stucky. He has enough testosterine.
Edit: Maybe I meant TestosteRINE.
Which reminds me of a story…
6 a.m. show time. Rifle season tomorrow.
I was the one hundredth comment on this thread. Medianet did not die in vain. Yahoo!!!!
We are taking morning hunt positions for the ladies of the night… bring on the rut!
There are 4 big evergreen trees in the pasture in front of my log home. The does gather there in the early morning light to discuss who gets which buck for the day, I surmise. One of these ladies will probably NOT be meeting her stud today. Artemis and I and Nick (who will hunt later in the season… we want the Prince of the Forest, a big 14 pointer who I’ve been watching for a couple of years, to plant his seed for a bit longer) will be busy today and we have some “stuff” to burn to avoid enticing more coyotes (of low caliber/quality) near my bunny pens.
The moment when the ladies hear the whiz of Artemis’s arrow on its path to its target.
[img[/img]
And, for your amusement… my dire predicament averted by God’s Grace and a barbed wire fence. I was off road on my ATV and came upon a thick swatch of leaves hiding an incline which needed 4WD, which I weren’t IN. There is, on the border of our land, old sections of barbed wire that remain ONLY because the trees grew around sections of fencing decades ago and that tiny section of fencing stopped my slide and what could very easily have been the end of Maggie’s day. After stilling my racing heart and assessing the situation, I yelled for my husband to come help and he, being the amazing man he is, pulled me out, suggested I stay on level ground and went back to working on my lovely walkway
[img[/img]
It could have been a lot worse.
[img[/img]
[img[/img]
That was a fun little diversion with Maggie Perkin’s Wild Kingdom.
The Artemis chick is hot, Maggie. I call her Diana.
My response to their email:
Go Fuck Yourselves
I don’t need you motherfuckers advertising on my site anyway.
Make sure you keep everyone’s personal data open to hackers, you incompetent pricks.
Keep spewing your left wing agenda and censoring truth telling sites.
You won’t win and I don’t need your ad revenue.
Sincerely
Jim Quinn
What the hell happened? I have been traveling the roads of middle TN this week, I have some time this morning to look at the articles and all hell has broken loose. Why is Stucky being blamed for the ad debacle?
Admin, great response to those assholes who can see the truth is winning and have their drawers all bunged up.
Admin
You were able to write that and not use any exclamation points. Man, talk about restraint. It is a pretty sad state of affairs with the Internet of Things when a blog where the contrary minded gather is regarded as such threat to the powers that be. What are they afraid of?
Is it just the contempt we show for them? Shouldn’t be cause that happens all the time on all sorts of websites. Or is it the fact that while we all try to get along we don’t always agree.
That the real threat to their control is that this place isn’t an echo chamber.
I wonder…
still gotta say what you said was nicely put.
Fuck dem fuckers at Yahoo!
Sincerely
RiNS
Low quality – what does that mean – maybe we viewed the big-tit ad’s but didn’t buy any shit?
We were not about to click on their low quality ads.
Were they the guys with the kissing bad boys?
Hey, Dutchy, we won!, The lip smackers are gone.
Low quality traffic means we’re not gay enough.
Let’s hope we don’t get any butt-fucker ad’s.
Let’s hope we do!
The sincerely line was perfect.
Too bad none of those pricks has a sense of humor.
I pray that some prick at Yahoo is triggered and sends me a nasty email back. I would love to post it.
I think of this as an appropriate addition right here, but certainly a BDR bid dog regyoulah (RiNS?) (nKit?) has posted this here at some point in its history, right?
No offense intended Admin. but a salute, of sorts.
“low quality traffic”
I’m guessing that’s us, the guys and gals dwelling in the comments section and writing posts.
I’d take it as a compliment. Given the source.
Francis
We may be crude and completely void of PC but “low quality”? I think not.
That perspective depends on where you fall in the political spectrum. To the establishment media and supporting corps we are of “low quality”, which is loosely translated into english as meaning “people who are concerned with the truth”. The pursuit of truth in our sociopolitical environment is a clear violation of the leftist feel good, virtue signalling doctrine of political correctness.
Could you guys up your game a little. I may have to vet you monkeys for high quality.
And for fuck sake, click on the booby ads.
This Capo is doing his bit…
Come on fellas! Help the man out..
[img[/img]
Not a whole lot to ask…
Very well, but I refuse to linger if they are not as fine as mine.
Isn’t Stucky collecting pine cones for the holiday corsage sales from the “special” class?
Some of the booby ads don’t work and say “can’t find site” or some such…or go into
the full page lock out and want you to call MicroSoft (or some scam phone #, got me) in
what looks like a virus attack, but isn’t effective, although I do have to kill the browser with
the task manager. I’m a bit wary of those ads, and actually even if I get through, they are lame.
Otherwise.. THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS ; fuckthosebastardcornholingwhores.
There are definitely alternatives to these LWPOS’s. They’re feeling their oats after Tuesday’s election returns. I’ll try to cobble some additional ideas and post them here.
A couple for starters:
1. Yahoo sucks. Do you have any video experience? Even a free video program (Openshot works on Windows, Mac and Linux… you are using Linux, right? Videopad – Mac and Windows only) will easily allow you to post images as a slide show with a background narrative. Start off the video with a 15 second ad (maybe not the booby ads… those could get some of us in trouble) from one of your sponsors, and create a subweb for each one so when they place an order, they place it through the subweb and you get credit. Also, get your advertisers to allow you to post a 10% discount, using a code that you provide. Next, get some more advertisers. Flags, bumper stickers, prepper supplies, ammo companies, and there are a whole host of possibilities. You might also get some of your regulars to help out with some video stuff.
2. There are alternative monetization companies. Here’s an example… do not know anything about them, just from a quick search on DuckDuckGo (google queries all return google ad revenue sites… imagine that): http://www.adnimation.com/. Here’s an article with alternatives: https://www.adngin.com/blog/website-monetization/top-10-video-monetization-platforms-its-not-only-youtube/
We all have a tougher time nowadays because of censorship by TPTB. Finding alternatives will take some work, but additional cross-linking with other, like-minded sites, starting your own online store, etc. will help. I’ll see if there are some additional ideas I can shoot your way.
Hammer T
There is a online store at TBP. Admin forgets about it on occasion but he should start having promos.
Well, indeed there is.
First time I have seen it. Admin, this is what’s known as a clue…
Was that a wise crack Hammer? Let us not degrade this important thread by getting into personal attacks. Mmmkaaay……….
Not intended as a wise crack at all. I’m just saying that if I didn’t see it before, perhaps others have not either, and that is a clue to start promoting it. This is just the way I talk. Pisses off my older kid though, sometimes.
I’d like a TBP.com AK47
My God Zara……You’re a fukkin genius. Admin becomes a arms dealer and problem solved. Who would not want the JQ Signature Series AK?
[img[/img]
What about selling ads to individual businesses? Hell, I’ll buy one once my book comes out. Do you have a price sheet? Send it to me if you do.
I don’t have enough time to treat TBP as a real business selling stuff. I’ll advertise your book for free.
I wish the store carried a Burning Platform coffee mug. I bet we would all buy one and maybe help the cause by giving some away too. Maybe some platform dweller with some spare time could take on such a project to help Jim.
The store has a few different coffee mugs. This is my personal favorite.
I love this one. Notice the bottom: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/collections/mugs/products/f-ck-your-sensitivity-mug?variant=42654269958
I visited the shop quite a while ago and haven’t checked back for a while. I had no idea you had an arrangement with Zazzle. Zazzle has a soft place in my heart ever since I bought my vintage Ron Paul T-shirt there. Do you get a percentage of product sales? If so I will buy the mug with the flames for sure. Nice logo.
I get 10% of the sale.
Ooooo not very much.
I am planning a regular monthly order from WM now. Household, cosmetics, etc. I’m glad for the opportunity to help you and it suits me fine because half the time when I try to get something there, they are out.
What happened to the clickbait of the chick lifting her leg up supposedly without underwear?
I’m gonna miss that advert.
How “freedom of the press” is controlled. Hang tight, stay the course, it gets worse before it gets better.
Last year I was ‘deplorable’. Now I am ‘low quality’. As long as I don’t become ‘illegal’ I’ll be OK!
Get rid of the porn ads and I might donate, not amused by Stuck’s exploratory articles. More and more sites like ZH, TBP and YouTube are becoming full of bs ads, comments and content that are self serving and offensive. Oh well, it’s just the way of the world.
Spit
Install an adblocker and send admin some money ya cheap cunt
annnnnd you’re welcome…
Yours in Odin,
RiNS
These ads populate based on your history on YOUR pc you PERV!
God he just went and said that shit out loud.
No they don’t, Jimski. I’ve never clicked on a girl, boobs, lifting-legs ad and they populate this site when I’m on it. And nobody else is using this computer.
Me too.
Jimski
I agree with Vixen.
The exact same ads appear on the library computers, all of them. They have pretty tough anti-porn filters. Ain’t nobody searching for “big titted blond giving blow jobs”, and getting successful results …. which, come to think about it, describes my life.
************* ADMIN **************
I’m at the library now.
I was on my tablet at home, got booted off, and then when I tried to log back in it said my IP address was BANNED. Can’t even log on to the general website, no less log in.
Do you know what’s going on?
Gonna be doing errands for everybody under the sun most of the day. Will try to log on from my tablet at home tonight. Otherwise, I won’t be back at the library until tomorrow.
Thanks.
Quality post Stucky. ^.^
Stucky, and everyone else,
Fork over $40 and get a VPN (Virtual Private Network). I like PIA (Private Internet Access) although there are several. If you aren’t doing this, you are simply giving these motherfuckers your whole life, location, etc. on a silver platter. You might as well post your home address and SS number at the end of your comment.
You can even set one up for free… instructions here: https://www.vpnbook.com/howto/
Even hidemyass.com is better than nothing.
Admin: We are all under attack. For shit’s sake, you might consider advertising VPN’s at the top of your page as a public service to TBP readers. Even better, become a VPN reseller. I know you don’t treat this as a real business, but you could.
One other thing… you might dissect the cookie data that TBP (more precisely the advertisers) is attempting to set on everyone’s computers… could be something there that advertisers are concerned about. There is some serious malware embedded in some of the advertising out there.
Lastly, release your inner geek. Use Linux. https://www.linuxmint.com/ Tell Apple and Microsoft to fuck off while you are telling Yahoo, Google, Fakebook & Amazon the same thing. Stop paying people to antiquate and destroy your computers.
ProtonVPN is great and FREE!
Amen to Linux. Good tips HT.
Stucky, did you skip your parole officer meeting again?
Seriously, somebody somewhere in the internet control room has it in for you.
Shut up and post some T&A.
As you wish, Rdawg:
[img?w=540[/img]
[img?w=280[/img]
Oh damn.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Download ProtonVPN (free). That’ll take care of the IP problem.
Greetings,
Lets look at this in terms of Star Wars. We had A New Hope and now it appears that the Empire Strikes Back. I guess that The Return of the Jedi is next on the agenda.
Seriously, most computers now ship with free video and audio editing software that give you, the user, more editing power than the big studios had when they made movies like Jaws or The Godfather. TPTB have entirely lost control of the narrative because making and distributing content is no longer in the hands of a handful of insiders. No, we can now produce whatever we wish and this terrifies them. Cutting off the revenue stream is a final desperate attempt to silence free thinkers.
The Burning Platform generates more content than any big city newspaper did in the ’70’s or ’80’s and we all know that those newspapers could swing elections. Now we have that power.
The first thing that came to mind about ‘low quality traffic’ was they follow around people like me who visit other non-leftwing-approved websites. Hence, they cannot admit it.
I like your moniker.
Thanks!
Verizon completed its acquisition of Yahoo in June. If you have a Verizon cell phone or other Verizon services, you are supporting their behavior and business practices.
Interesting. I have boycotted Verizon since the early 90’s. They sucked then, they suck worse now.
Gee, what could go wrong, posting Nazi propaganda, hate media and idiotic references to Viking mythology?
With assholes like you here anon, maybe they’ll restore the account.
Tell ’em I said they can take a big suck outta my ass.
Shit. Lost an entire post. Here’s the Reader’s Digest version:
Stucky: Fork over $40 per year for a vpn. Then you won’t end up blocked.
Admin: Enhance the thickness of your wallet by advertising the services of a VPN. I like Private Internet Access.
Tell Microsoft to fuck off. Apple too. Use Linux. It’s easy. It’s free. You work hard for your money. You’ll save thousands of $$$ by not buying the overpriced software, not to mention the new computer every three years because Apple and Windows have caused your current one to become useless. If anyone here says it’s too complicated, or doesn’t do what you need it to, or too hard to learn, that is extremely old information. I’ve been using it for 5 years now for my business and leisure, and will never, EVER go back.

H.Thor is on to something. You can make a dual- boot PC easily and load either Windows if you’re stuck using MicroSoft apps, or Linux for the advantages he mentions.
Admin, that media.net letter is akin to calling you a deplorable, a la Killery Rotham Clinton.
Bump up your donation thermometer like I suggested with my last donation a few weeks ago.
I’ll do a three-peat for you this year to boot, now that I’m working again.
There is no doubt that a culture war is in full swing. We must fight back.

Dennis Prager is a zionazi asshole.
‘Low quality traffic’ can mean several things – bots and crappy ad response are the two main ones.
I suspect they are referencing bots – “However, in order to protect our proprietary detection systems, we are unable to provide further details” – because of this sentence in their letter. ‘Proprietary detection systems’ implies bot detection.
They are probably fully aware that you have nothing to do with whatever it is that they think is going on.

I’m “the low quality traffic”. I visited the site recently and left a few comments. That is the reason for the censorship. Seriously. I know that sounds crazy, but we are living in a crazy world.
Doug Kenney (Animal House screenwriter) was definitely an “in guy” who had a sense of what Deep State/Heine gang is really about.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Kenney
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Lampoon_(magazine)
I don’t mind throwing money at you. I hate the booby ads. Mine didn’t come out quite that good and I’m jealous.
And now for something completely different…take a deep breath and relax for 5 minutes.
Love Pink Floyd. What’s the story on the name? I just looked it up.
“Pink Floyd” comes from the jusxtaposition of the first name of two american bluesmen: Pink Anderson & Floyd Council. An idea of the early leader of the band Syd Barrett.
“And now for something completely different…take a deep breath and relax for 5 minutes.”
If your a guy, you never want to hear those words, ever. Not from your buddy or wife. Run!
Just donated!
Thank you
Send Jim a check. I’m as low quality traffic as he gets, but even a shitbird like me sends a check….so you high falutin assholes can blow the dust off your wallets.
I’ll donate too. I’m already shopping at Wal-Mart from here.
Personally, it’s the ads that show something that looks like a weird penis that turns out to be a gnarly tuberous vegetable that only grows in Macedonia, and the ones that show someone hanging off a cliff with the title “Right after this she fell to a hideous, gory death which wiped that smile right off her face,” that get to me. I appreciate you, Admin.
There. In addition to sending a donation a few weeks ago I just clicked a bunch of booby ads. It was nearly painless.
You’re welcome.
Beer tickets sent through the donate link…thank you for this site.
My job is hanging by a thread but I got you a money order for $20 today. I know it’s not much but I’m hoping at some point soon I can get a better more stable job and become a regular contributor. We MUST keep the Right alive online, if Bezos, Soros and the rest of the bastards silence it they will win and we all will lose. Don’t let the bastards win!
100. I win!
Hang in there KaD, were all pulling for you.
I clicked on a couple of titty pics. I’m worn out.
Working for the man, clicking for a living.
Guess I gotta send in some pesos.
Jim,
I think you should sue them for discrimination and also request that they change their legal status to a political action committee at least and at worst change to a political company. They are not media and are controlling a one way narrative. Please sue and start a go fund me page for donations!! Fuck these asswhipes they need to be slurped and reregister as political hacks…..can’t wait until the tennis war happens, lets volley shall we…….
Seems in order to boycott these libtard bastards, I must give up the internet, tv, radio, several car makes, no computers very little software, shop at the thrift store. OR?…somehow get all the alt right and right to STOP all on one day for 3 months buying anything from a particular store as a warning. Then if they don’t change for a year we make a fucking hit list in order with dates that the right wing boycott shall take place. Only thing I know that seems it will get attention. The media will ignore it until these asswipes go bankrupt then the truth will come out….most of these companies cannot afford to piss off their actual customers who work for a living and not depend on Obama phones, welfare etc etc. just like the NFL we need to target and hit with a boycott….whose game??
