Restricting types of adds

Is there a way to restrict some of the "types" of google adds you get.  We are just getting set up with our Sawmill forum but it seems as if about every third add relates to sexy dating sites etc.  We rather not have that on our site.

No, I'm sorry, there is not a way for you to restrict certain types of ads.
However, if you do see ads that are inappropriate you can report them here.
We will need more information then  "sexy dating sites" so we know exactly which ads you are talking about.

The ad's are based on keywords on the sites and picks up what ever is on the page.

Thats what I thought but NO WHERE will you find anything about dating or sex on this site.  I have not seen any of that today but the first couple days it was full of them.
