Content Carousel/Ashley Madison
« on: October 08, 2016, 06:18:28 am »
I always try the Content Carousel after doing the PTC, hoping for a quick 2 or 4 cents.  I was a bit dismayed today when then site went directly to an ad for "Ashley Madison", which I think is the adult site that was subject to some hacking a while back.  I do respect FC's advertisers, and I appreciate all of the offers out there for folks like me to make a few extra cents each day, but I am hopeful that FC doesn't feel it needs to stoop to promoting adult sites.  I realize I don't have to visit them, but still, I'd just as soon not be "surprised" with that type of advertising.  If there was a video for Ashley Madison, I just wouldn't do it, but for it to pop up when I am looking for a carousel of videos is annoying.

Rant over.

I do not blame you for not wanting to see adult ads. I as well love the Carosel videos. They are a quick way to earn the five cents needed to do paid to click. :monkey:

mine just goes to some dumb miscellaneous site.  eg...telling me i am a chrome winner.  was doing video offer on similar site and it directed me to porno, not just vote for someone.  sometimes my grandkids help me.  i turned in ticket, got an apology, and it never happened again.

I was able to do a couple in there but they didn't credit.

I know what you mean.  I always try that one first and for awhile I got credit multiple times.  Now it does not work.  Too bad!  This is an easy way to earn cash.

Yes, I think the videos should be screened first.

If a company wants to pay FusionCash for advertising on its site, who cares what it is.    The ads are what keeps FusionCash in business & lets face it, some businesses have a lot of money to spend because a lot of people give them money...  I don't support Ashley, but they are a legitimate business & they don't have 49 million members for no reason.   They pay FusionCash & help them stay in business, help all of us earn that penny LOL.   That Carousel helps me get to my 5 cents, don't like the end ad, don't click it, just click out of it...  thank them for the 2 cents :)

If I'd get paid for seeing that ad, I wouldn't have an issue.  There is nothing to thank anyone for.  I spent a few minutes of my time, made no $ and got an ad that I'm not thrilled about.  If there are no Carousel videos, I get it; I just don't like to be re-directed to an ad for something, get no credit, and waste my time.  It happens, I know.

I think when a site goes directly to an ad, it means the quota of videos are done for the day. I don't stay in those sites. I get out immediately. You don't get credit if you can't see the video. Just go on to another site.

it means there are no videos to watch and I don't think FC has any control what ads content carousel shows... I doubt that the ads are explicit in that they show nudity... if they do, then I'd put in a support ticket

The ads do not show nudity, and I understand when I get an ad it means there aren't any carousel videos available and I move on.  It really isn't a huge deal, but it is annoying to me.

i wonder if it is demographics

i watched 30 already today and got credited for everyone.

i was wondering why people arent doing these as it is a free $1.00 a day for watching videos.

I have always been pretty successful with these, and I've never had *bleep* pop up, but plenty of fake malware warnings. However, for some reason the content carousel isn't crediting me today. I've never had that problem before. Well maybe once or twice, but it was months and months ago.
