I just bookmark a link to this forum and I avoid all ads whether they bother me or not (I never have to see a single ad if I choose not to---raunchy or clean). Of course this is the only place on Renderosity I go all the time. I have looked at the ads and find them more stupid than offensive. The ads are most often good for a laugh or two or three. ONE SOLUTION: Just bookmark a link to this forum and avoid most of the ads.
