Personalized for you showing the wrong image 

Post#1 » by Gek » Wed Aug 28, 2013 10:53 pm

This happened the other night with syracuse's Sutherland's picture, thought it was a fluke, but now it's happening again with Rubio. He's showing up for 2 articles not about him.

Chrome/Windows 7/Add blocker plus is running for everything but the bottom section (I didn't block the articles or ads there because they're pretty unobtrusive)

We noticed that as well and have contacted the advertising company.

Personalized for You appears to be absolutely terrible at actually relating to the target individual, fwiw; totally awful. Like "back to the drawing board, this is useless" awful.

I'm glad to hear it is being taken care of. It is just annoying when it is the wrong player's picture when a trade is discussed but it is down right offensive when the photo is wrong for a DUI offense. I know I would be pretty pissed if my photo was used in an article for someone else who got arrested in a DUI.

Showing Sam Presti for DeAndre Liggins arrest is pretty bad and seems intentional.

Everything seems to be linking up properly over the last few weeks. I'm locking this up.
