Let's skip the serious debates for a little fun.

If AdSense had a public support line, what would it's options be?

Thank you for calling AdSense
Please listen to our menu as the options have changed:
Press 1 for delayed stats
Press 2 for banned account
Press 3 for check not arriving in far away places
Press 4 for income has plummeted
Press 5 for irrelevant ads

What else do you think would be on this list?

Let's keep it clean and nice ;)

Press 6 for there are trojans on this landing page.

Had that case once. Complained to the german office since it was a german ad. Got "no it does not!" back. Replied, stating that 5++ people tested it and got the same result and had a "oh, yeah, sorry, ehm, yeah, automated ehm response ehm, yeah, sorry, we banned them"-reply.

Press 7 for account denials. Supposedly it's getting harder to get into Adsense? I started my account back in the day where they bsically just gve accounts away for having anything slightly resembling a webpage.

Press 0 to speak to a live person.

It's not necessary for that person to actually be able to help you any nor would it be likely to be more than a shoulder to cry on.

Hahaha, that was great. If I had Elmer Fudd read my Adsense stats to me everyday, I wouldn't feel so bad about the stats dropping this year.

Actually, it doesn't matter what number you press, because you will receive the same recorded message to tell you to go to their google groups and ask there.

414 PIP has now started
415 Do you have PIP in ....
416 Hey I've got my PIP what about you
417 Oh no, I don't have PIP
418 Check webmasterworld to find out if PIP has started
419 If you have checked WebmasterWorld and PIP has started somewhere in hicksville and you are panicking ,press to hear some soothing words

Wonder if the last two would stop a thread every month on WebmasterWorld or if it would heighten the anxiety!

Press 1 to hear a recorded message that won't help you at all.
Press 2 to listen to the message again.
Press 3 to leave a message that no-one will listen to - ever.
Press 4 to be reassured that your impressions and clicks will not be affected during site maintenance.
Press 5 to be sent in an ever decreasing loop and eventually be placed on hold until sometime in 2012 when an operator will hang up on you.
