Is that why I keep getting ads for universities? What are they trying to tell me that I need?

Besides money to pay for them? Good news though, Florida is in the top 50 for state run education.

Is this advertising browser specific? All I get are pretty much gaming ads, and I only use this browser (Safari) for Cantr and this forum... well and the wiki and google translate. I use another one for everything else.

Mine seem entirely random. If they're individually targeted, that sounds about right.

I get gaming ads too, mostly involving dragons (understandable), but I mostly get dating ads that sound super stalkerish. I don't frequent dating sites. I don't even use Facebook on my computer.

I know that not everyone plays it the way they do, but because of the people in my life who play, I'm convinced that D&D just involves doing math at each other for a few hours.

Rant: Why does it have to be so hard to explain more complex toughts in english? A.K.A spend more time with writing in your non-native languages.

I have no problems expressing complex ideas in English. ;) Well, most of the time.

You can delete, or at least edit them for something like 48hrs iirc. After that....you own up to it. I have a few floating around like that. Hopefully nobody checks back on page 413 for any posts made by me. :oops:
