But why did I see an advertisement for an electronic cigarette on your site? I dont mean to complain and I understand that you need money from sponsors to keep the site going but come on a cigarette add. I understand that smokers play video games too and smoking is a part of the world but for a family type site I think that is kinda the wrong thing to show. It even has a "buy now" button on it. Whats next Budweiser Advertisments?

Isn`t it one of those addiction things? Either way, I honestly don`t see anything wrong with it; if smoking is apart of the world, then why must we hide it from the world?

Yes it is an addiction thing Ravage.

I've not seen it, as I dont look at the adds anymore anyways.

The best thing to do when you see something you don't like is to use the Contact Form, otherwise the mods/admins might not see it right away. If you can screencap the ad in question, that'll greatly help them out as well.

We don't control the individual advertisers as we use a service. But as was stated above, you really need to contact us directly for something like this. The forums aren't really the place. Thanks.

Another thing that wasn't quite mentioned (sorry Corbs) is that the ads seen at Nintendo Life are different depending on what part of the country and/or world you're in; they're served according to your area. That's why the absolute best thing you can do is as Feenie suggested -- get a screencap of the offending ad -- so that Ant can get in touch with our ad provider(s) and tell them specifically which one(s) are objectionable, because chances are only a couple places in the world are seeing it at any given point in time. :3

Just upload your screencap of the ad to a free image host (imageshack, photobucket, flickr, etc.) and send in the link (along with your explanation thereof) via the Contact Form and Ant'll get it straightened out. :3
