Kind of expected from a company that has no scruples, right?

Considering that every single ad I saw for that game seemed to do nothing but try to get people to click it thinking it was porn... yeah.

Tomorrow I'll be sending some e-mail about this story to as many places as I can. Maybe that'll help.

I see the Evony ad everywhere now.
Maybe game-oriented websites should boycott.

They can't- Evony (ab)uses AdSense, IIRC, so it's either Evony ads or no ads. |

So, if I were to link sources on this whole mess, would that blog's posts be enough? Is there a more detailed source of information that I could link people to?

If enough people complain to adsense maybe they could do something about it?
These ads are really intrusive.

Great isn't it? Which side do you choose?
Do you choose a) Evony, alleged gold farmers and ad spammers or b) Bruce Everiss, blog spammer, stalker and liar.
Oooh toughie! Is it the white dog poo or the brown dog poo?
And yes, Bruce's blog is pretty disgusting. Good spot there.

Um, it looks like Everiss presented a theory about the failure of a company he used to work for, a theory that people disagreed with, and then he corrected a couple of incorrect dates and deleted a bunch of comments. That certainly won't win him medals for journalistic integrity, but I don't know if I'd characterize that as "disgusting."
What's that about journo stalking?
