Special:Contact/bad-ad, as posted above, is the appropriate response to inappropriate ads for Wikia. I would bother you too with such messages as using ad-blocking makes you a free-loader, using Wikia's free services at no benefit to them (excluding any content you might create but that doesn't keep Wikia running in the short-term).

I experienced these ads when I was logged in. They ran down the side of article pages. As for being a free-loader, I have to ask how does Wikia benefit from me allowing to run ads when I don't give the advertisers any money or buy their products? Pardon me if I sound like a moron when I say this, but does Wikia get paid a certain amount of money by the advertisers per every view the ad gets, despite me not buying the advertisers' products?
