Help shape the future of CurseForge!

No political ads or other vitriolic content in the client please.

This should be self-evident that a certain quality bar of ads should be controlled in the client (until we're allowed to skip ads completely, which I'm waiting on).

    Admin response

    Our team is very careful with the content we allow to be presented on our platform. Do you have any specific case in mind where you saw something that you think is inappropriate?

    Sorry to revive this thread, but I was gonna make a post about this, I don't mind ads from amazon, google, food places, etc.
    But im on a video game and id rather not see an ad, asking me to vote for a right wing republic who wants to rebuild the wall, keep them in mexico and other REALLY REALLY HARD political standing points.

    I manage to snag a screenshot, and the ad itself is REALLY REALLY disturbing and targeting a clear minority. and should be removed or blocked away from the ad entirely.

    And by client I meant the alpha client where even if you're a subscriber, ads still play


    Under subscription in the alpha client, it says ads wont play if you're a subscriber, should either 1) make that true, or 2) don't claim it

    It was the political content from the last US local election cycle I think, going by the date.

Hold on!
