Vile coco pops ads targeting children on their way to school



This advert is on a bus stop outside Poplar Primary School in Merton. No doubt they are probably outside schools up and down the country. Coco pops would not be allowed in schools because of the high fat and sugar content. Many schools are working hard to persuade children that they shoulding be eating less fat and sugar and encouraging them to try healthier and tastier alternatives to junk food. Adverts like this do nothing to help. Yes, I know Kelloggs are not breaking the law but I think ads like this are irresponsible and unethical. If you agree please email Kelloggs to tell them so. The email address is corporateresponsibility@kellogg.com

I think it is even more shocking when you consider Kelloggs are a change4life partner.

NEWS UPDATE: just discovered Kelloggs are on twitter. You can send a message to @kelloggsuk

They've been stopped from saying they can be part of a nutritious breakfast, but suggesting that it is suddenly a healthy food if it's AFTER school is very cynical. I would have much more respect if they would just decide to come clean and say what it is: a fun, tasty TREAT.

I completely agree. This is up outside my kids' school too. It's just as well they can't read.

(I kid, I kid... they can't read English cos they're doing gaelic first. But I do think it's a flippin' cheek and NOT very helpful for the west of Scotland where it's hard enough to get good nutrition as it is. I will be writing to Kellog's.)

I agree. It is up outside our school too, can't believe how they have placed them outside all the primary schools! My daughter can read it, she noticed it before I did and reads it out loud every time we walk past it. I'm sure they made the writing really clear and simple so even young kids can read it! I am going to write and complain.

Pathetic, just say "no" to your kids. Kelloggs don't have any duty but to maximise shareholder value. "I'm going to write to complain", a sad indication of how mollycoddled kids are these days.

They can't advertise the Pops near schools due to high sugar and fat. I've written several custom essays on this before.

please note that I am not looking to judge but to have a word that says what the inspector failed to do...he did not "contradict" the statement "newly updated"...the word 'contradict' is where my question is...is there a better word I could use?

The cause behind the previous erroneous APR bans was fixed and all accounts blocked because of that instance were unblocked.

Please note that the patch notes say that patch 1827 "mitigates the ability to perform abnormal functions in-game"; mitigation is lessening an effect, not getting rid of it entirely.

On the other hand, you can pick any other servers and you will see K0xpers every where, literally every spots/zones/towns; you won't miss them because not many players log and play legitimately any more. Why pick a server that has the least cheaters instead of those that filled with cheaters? At least help the servers that populated with cheaters first.

The moment we've stop to stop by right here a little over a week ago, my brother was basically so insistent around creating comment on Ruben's thought being put on. I nonetheless was adamant that we should keep our lips shut temporarly and simply never make a comment but when he attempted to make another comment which gives criticsms about how exactly others responded on his assertion, I guess he was dead entirely wrong with it.

Quite a large number of people have been working on this issue non-stop since yesterday. Korlash was stuck pulling an all-nighter and he literally just left the office a few minutes ago after I got in to relieve him from duty. Poor guy sounded terrible.

GamersFirst handles everything account and user-related, as well as general upkeep of the game. The vital tools we rely on, such as the ones that allow us to track NP transfers, perform item investigations, and other such important tasks, are not available because the entire database they reports are founded in had to be rebuilt from the ground up. It's not like we had the option to keep our old tools running on the sidelines while everything else was worked on.

Example: I am patiently waiting for mgame to fix the NTR issue but am worried as I have a personal Sword and Shield both +7 on my warrior account and do not want to lose either one

Sincere apologies if this has been discussed but the search function isnt working right for me

Potentially. I'm not really directly involved with any security updates, though there has been tabled discussions on different methods of logging and transferring user data. There have also been discussions over promoting improved security habits among players, such as offering a means of incentivising users to change their security information more frequently, or rewarding those who do.

I've already discussed the conditions and traits surrounding the Sheriff system plenty of times in this thread, so you can use the Keyword Search to dig up information yourself. As for when it's coming out, we're still working on that. The base work is already done and in the game, but we've yet to get it fully refined due to the developers' scheduling.

All KOL GMs here on the forums are labeled with red as 'KOL Admin', right? Right.
2) Up at the top of the forum page, there's a link called 'Members' that lets you search through people registered on the forums. This is a feature of pretty much every forum everywhere. On that page, there's a drop down box labeled 'All Members' -- expand it and you'll notice it will allow you to filter the search criteria to a single group, such as 'KOL Admin'. Click that, then hit the 'Go' button.
3) Done. There's a list of KOL GMs, all tidy and in alphabetical order for you. PM to your heart's delight.

Going to jail because of anti-wall hack coordinates or Sheriff Reports does not count as an APR ban. Those are totally unrelated forms of detection. APR bans only occur when the system spots what it believes is a third party tool and bounces the user out of the game for 48 hours because of it.

I guess the ad is really irresponsible. Companies must be wary about the effect that they can bring to the people.

Being able to cross-class skills to empower a BP or Rogue type would be a prime situation, in my opinion. A BP with extra tanking power or a Rogue with mob control would be great. Though I suppose the alternative has possibilities too... being able to snag skills from other classes means I could potentially have a warrior that's more dynamic to play, or a caster that can actually take a hit/have enough healing ability to make it suitably playable to my tastes. Time will tell. I'll be playing Hailan Rising as well, after all.

So, if I'm in the service and deployed and have only limited access to to the game, my only recourse is through K2 Cs and be premium? I know this young man and sometimes they are at sea three months at a clip, or more (no pun intended). Is there any way other than basic CS to look into this?
