Forum:How do I refresh the ads on the front page (to view what else users are seeing)?

Anyone know how to refresh the ads on the page (or view a list even)? When I refresh in my browser (Firefox), it just shows the same ad as before - even when I clear all my cookies first before refreshing. I'm guessing there must be some way for admins to check what ads are being shown?

In the HTML code for the wikia I administrate, City of Wikia, it has this:

ProviderValues.list = [{"name":"age","value":"adult"},{"name":"esrb","value":"teen"},{"name":"gnre","value":"mmo"},{"name":"gnre","value":"rpg"},{"name":"pform","value":"pc"},{"name":"volum","value":"m"}]; ProviderValues.string = "age=adult;esrb=teen;gnre=mmo;gnre=rpg;pform=pc;volum=m;";

Which I assume is relevant to what ads are displayed on the page, since it comes a little after - so browsing other Wikias front pages probably isn't useful since they have different keywords set, though it does show different ads.

One user on #wikia IRC chat said to try going back after visiting other Wikias because what is shown is dependant on your cookie, but it seems to have no change.

There definitely are other ads than the one I am currently seeing now (which is ok content-wise) that I have seen today, but I need a way to refresh and view new ones somehow. If it's monitoring my IP address I guess I could try more proxies, but that's fiddly.

Thanks for any help anyone! --Kittenofdoom 08:02, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Update:

Someone recommended adding ?action=purge to the end of the URL, this does not seem to work either.

Also, the reason I need to look at what ads are being shown is because it has been showing inappropriate/illegal (violating license agreements of games) advertisements for "gold farmer" websites on the front page! --Kittenofdoom 09:00, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
