I Want to Improve the Experience Project

Getting serious advertising revenue on this website--why didn't EP management ever show competence in doing that? This site had a huge membership. Why didn't they hire somebody who was a real pro at getting the advertising flow the website needed? It seemed like the boss was determined to run EP as an insular, amateur operation, nobody over 35 allowed. Always "a tiny team."

I stopped seeing ads in 2014 as a Supporter. Before then, the kind of ads I would see were "Meet Russian Women", Adult Friend Finder, and ads that would show a pretty young woman with gigantic breasts and saying she is 2.3 miles away from me, LOL! Somebody else described the ads to me now as "there are still busty ones, plus male enhancement ones, moneymaking schemes, and ones that feature bizarre and disturbing physical deformities, ostensibly clickbait articles leading to more advertisements." Atrocious! If Playboy and Penthouse have had ads for all these decades, why couldn't EP develop a strong advertising operation?

I do not pretend to have a great understanding of business or of the Internet or of Internet business, so I am quite willing to listen to what more knowledgeable people on these things have to say.

They lost a lot of people when they started censoring people and drove all the old members away now it's just young kids with no sense and no money to spend.
