Gaia Interactive, I know you're excited about Tentacl, and I know you want us to think of it as Gaia for big kids, but you are giving us an image and caption that heavily imply outright scream tentacle rape, and you put it on a website for kids 13+? Idgaf what you do on tentacl, but please keep the hentai off of Gaia. I find this ad disturbing on multiple levels.
Here is the ad in question. NSFW WARNING... srsly gaia what are you thinking
EDIT:: Yes, I do use adblock. The only reason I saw the ad was because I was on a mobile device. The point I was trying to make (aside from the ad being disgusting and misogynistic) was that we would be getting warnings if we tried to post pictures like that anywhere else on the site. It's hypocrisy on Gaia's end. I know that with ads like Evony they could play ignorant and say that they didn't know that they had those ads, but they can't do it this time because Gaia Interactive made the ad.
For those of you who don't understand the implications or are confused as to why people are so disgusted by this ad, look up "Tentacle Erotica" on wikipedia and learn. I am not providing a link because there is an image on that page that is against the TOS. Like this ad.
EDIT, June 3 -- It's been over 24 hours since I reported the ad, and after disabling adblock for a moment not only did I catch the same ad, but hey look another ad that demeans women.
What WE can do
Send an email to reportads@gaiaonline.com with the picture I provided. Even better, if you happen to catch the ad yourself while browsing the site, report the date and time you saw it. If enough people complain, they just might listen!
