some faucets owners doesn't care on what ads are being advertised as long as they pay them money. I've seen Ponzi sites being advertised in some bitcoin faucets.

If a faucet owner is using an ad network (e.g. a-ads, adbit.co, beeads, bitclix, etc...) to serve up ads on their site, they don't
necessarily have direct control over what ads are being served. Some ad networks have *some* parameters than can be set
(e.g. don't show any adult ads), but it's not like the faucet owners can pick and choose which ads get served to their site and
which don't.

For anyone that uses faucets - *most* of these faucets are run by regular folks just like you and me. They are funding them
out of their own pockets and giving it away free to us. The least we can do to thank them is click on a couple of ads on their
sites.

I run two faucets myself, and I can tell you that my daily ad revenue doesn't even come close to covering even half of what
I pay out on a daily basis. But whatever income I *do* get from ads goes right back into the faucet.

Brother, we general faucet visitors are not criminals. I hope everyone like me tries to hit ads often. But you cannot say hit the ads or your winning will be fortified or something like this. Unfortunately this particular faucet(.......puddle.com) also not paying. If you hit withdrawal button they continuously show "insufficient fund".
So, what will you say about their motive?

Insufficient funds doesn't mean that they are holding your payouts hostage. It means that there are
no funds in the faucet at that time. My own faucets run dry (often in the middle of the night while I
am asleep) and display that message until I am able to transfer more coins in.

As far as *requiring* users to click on ads, yes I agree with you that that is wrong. It not only
goes against the terms of every single ad network out there, but it is unethical in that it tends
to mislead users.

I know the Banner Ads on freebitco.in gets checked and approved before it's active on the faucet. I have had several Banner Ads with them, so I know this for a fact.
The problem come in with the other companies you use to pay for the Ad's. ^Sad^ Adbitco had some porn sites slip through a while ago, and it caused some embarrassment at my work. ^LoL^

That is FreeBitco. They have their own internal ad network, so yes - they have the ability to approve ads. Those
websites that use ad networks like the ones I listed - the kind where you sign up, define ad positions, and paste
some iframe code - they don't have the ability to pick and choose the ads they display.

I know very well that a faucet mainly run by advertisement. Many faucet owners continuously requesting the users to click the ads. [....]

My question to the faucets owners, can't they stop showing those scmmers advertisement to help general users?

My request to facets users, when you visit a faucet for some free coins please click 1/2 legal ads so they may run properly without the help of some cheat multifolderer.     
 

You're right, faucet owners shouldn't use cheap tricks or asks users to click on ads..

AND faucets users should clicks on ads once in a while.. just as a way to say thanks and keep the faucet alive..

The solution is simply..

the faucet gift you some coin...

if you click ads they earn money and can give you a lot..
if the faucet owner is a trusted person.

i own http://www.chesimangia.it and spread all the coin received by ads (-taxes - domain costs) and increase the faucet payout...

it is opened from january 2014...
but if people doesn't not click ads..i've to close it..

but i never forced people to click..it's illegal..it's just a suggestion

I agree with the OP. BitcoinPuddle does asks users to click on ads so that they can increase the faucet payout. lol

And as far as promoting scam sites is concerned. They put the ads on site and who cares when you are getting money for those ads? Why would he waste time analyzing and filtering the ads shown on his site? Its the money which matters. As a faucet user we should be aware of not to get lured by such ads.

google adsense kicked those publishers who ask for clicks in any way some other ads networks are not smart enought to detact all keywords around the ads
Google are masters at recognizing scammers within their adsense program, it's impossible to get away with extra clicking.
