These appeared on the advertising banner. I'm still working on what logic connects them with shooting air guns.

I haven't hit the "Meet Christian Singles" ad [yet]- but other dating ads appear. Not sure why- maybe there is some assumption that guys looking at gun websites late at night must need a date.  |

And apparently she has been "certified"! WOW that's like Prime meat? It's also like a used Toyota! She must be nice if they say so, I wonder why she needs a date? |

You've hit on the connection! She needs a date because she is a shooter, and boys are put off by that.
In her dorm room at college, my daughter had a photo of herself posing menacingly with her katana. It scared off at least one young man, so imagine what a gun would do.
It brings peace to a father's worried mind. |

What happens is the people who run those banner campains are trying to get as many clicks as possilble to the respective websites. Ideally, they want "qualified" hits, meaning they want people clicking who actually might buy the product or service they are clicking on. This is why most of the banners are gun related. They figure that airgun guys will want to look at other gun stuff, even body armor!
The reason the romance banners appeared is probably because they need more hits on those sites so they began placing them in "less appropirate" places. However, romance, love, and viagra adds are pretty much appropriate on any website considering the preponderance of web users are, well lets face it, lonely men. |

Maybe it because they think "Airgunners" are just a bunch of saddo's and the only thing to attract there attention is a sexy girl.
It works for me.

| All I know is, if I didn't have a girlfriend, I would feel like the worlds biggest loser for sitting around shooting birds with pellet guns. Incidentally, I met my girlfriend online.... |
