I think this just shows how bad Microsofts technical ability is. Evidently they are saying, “we cant figure out how to do what google and yahoo do so we are just going to ban you for making us look stupid”.

I got the same email as all these other people did. Here is the funny part - I only used Microsofts sugestion tool to find my keywords….

Load adcenter in Firefox on the Mac. MSN updated recently and it works now. Does for me anyway.

Time to get bootcamp on that Mac
On a serious note, I would call your ad rep and say WTF?

The good news is that AdCenter will finally support Firefox after the upgrade this weekend… something they should have planned when AdCenter was still a thought cloud.

Haven’t heard of this before. Dude, copy/paste the email into a post!

The more I deal with Yahoo and MSN, both on the publishing and ad buying ends, the clearer it becomes to me that Google really knows what they are doing.

Flock on OSX works with AdCenter.

Maybe it’s just me but I would think just getting into the game they would want to be a little nicer then everyone else.

Nicely said Ray! 24 hours to comply does seem a little harsh

so everybody got email from adcenter..
thanks god i’m not their member

“…emails from adcenter saying there account..:”

It’s “their account”, not “there”

What?! Microsoft rocks! This is the most strategic move they have done yet. It is deliberate, and nothing short of brilliant!

Hey Shoe… I’m surrpised that nobody has caught the spelling error in your title. I think you meant to write “Threats” instead of “Theats.”

it does work for everything but adding keywords… for now

thank!

Thanks KD

Thats what I get for powerblogging between defcon sessions

posted from my phone…. sucked to copy and paste hope it looks ok. I will try to fix formating later

Ya, because “Adcenter Threats To Suspend Accounts” sounds so much better than “Adcenter Threatens To Suspend Accounts”

[...] Now Shoemoney, who’s quite the traveler these days, can’t get to his account in time to ‘improve’ the ads. I would venture to guess he’s not the only one, considering [...]

Glad someone else pointed out that retardo-correction.

OMG that sucks Shoe! I know people who don’t even check their email every 24 hours, let alone check it AND have time to make a major adjustment in time.

So, they want to slow down their revenue.

Not too smart move since it’s probably still too low in comparison to Google’s or Yahoo’s.

It won’t work for them, until they change their policy.

You think maybe they just sent that notice out to anyone with a large number of keywords? I wonder how they decided that they weren’t relevant enough.
