It took me 1 second to determine the reason, so your post is disingenuous at the very least. You bought ads to steer people into your chatbot page serving ads, where you can talk to a "boyfriend", or "step mom" with default prompt being "Please don't tell daddy about this...".

It takes 2 (TWO) prompts for "step mom" chatbot to try get into my pants.

>It would probably be easier if I could just take it off you

Hilarious!

Great product, especially if you manage to combine it with some sort of imagegen. But you can not expect to serve Google ads on this, or buy google ads for it.

I’m just going to say … it’s fucking atrocious that Google can be in a business relationship worth 70k, owe another business seventy thousand dollars, and they can just go “you know what, we don’t owe you shit, and we’re not going to even tell you why”. This sort of shit should be illegal. Google for all intent except the legal obligation, in a legal relationship pertaining to the money you helped them make, they sho…

My first take is that making $50k your first month is pretty quick growth and looks suspicious. Also, something chatbot-based sounds a lot like spam content generation and that's something Google monopolizes for itself. (I'd say at least half the time that somebody is complaining about unfair treatment by Adsense they are really guilty and trying to defend themselves like the murderer in an episode of Columbo .)

Even if this is true, google shouldn't be able to determine that on their own and keep your money , such a system can be so easy to abuse as we have seen with copyright owners and the youtube content ID system.

I'm feeling irritated just reading this. I have no idea why anyone would rely on Google for anything business-critical at this point - GPC, AdSense, Gmail, Drive, etc - I don't trust them.

This is one of worst, but I see posts of a similar nature to this here multiple times a week. At this point if you decide to do business with Google you should do so expecting this type of crap.

Unfortunately I doubt there's anything you can do to resolve this. Based on previous stories like this your best chance is just to kick up enough of a fuss that someone at Google might notice and decide to help out.

Well there are no other programs like AdSense which has similar payouts because of how big Adwords' market is.

As someone who was banned from AdSense a decade ago arbitrarily, I have never thought about developing any projects which depends on Ad revenue because it's just not worth it since other Ad publishing platforms don't come anywhere close to AdSense payouts.

As immature as it is, I found Boyfriend (Breakup) pretty amusing:

Bot: Hey, I think we need to talk.

- sup

Bot: About the break-up

- what breakup?

Bot: The one you and I had this morning

- I don't know what you're talking about

Bot: You were screaming in pain at the top of your lungs

- Oh yeah, that. What about it?

Bot: Well, I guess I just wanted to make sure you're ok

- Oh yeah dude no problem

Bot: Ok good

- Alrighty then.

Bot: Do you want to come over?
