Ad's need to go !!!
#41241 - 12/13/07 10:06 PM

For those of us that get to see the Ad's.
I think it sux. I will never buy anything from these ads.

I might just stop playing b/c of them.

Or you can pony up the.. what, $5.00 / month?

Seriously, the ads aren't terrible and they allow non-members to have benefits that were Member only before. This isn't a traditional F2P MMO so there is no micro-transaction system to support it, just the membership and ad system.

Edit: Oh.. and how is this a 'Bug/Technical Issue'?

If it means the difference between the game existing or not, keep the ads. Although the ads between waypoints are a bit annoying....so much so, that I became a member, because I love the game, and for the price of a Happy Meal every month, I get entertained instead of a heart attack. It's win win baby.

1) This is neither a bug nor a technical issue. It's a complaint.

2) You're a free player and you're threatening to leave because you were given extra benefits?

Don't let the door hit you...

Yea I figured paying members would rip on me. I have three people playing in the house so it would be 15 for me.
There is still much to be done to make this game worth paying for. It was fine without the ads, so why screw with a good thing. I would not mind the ads if they did not put more delay in the load time. If the load time was the same it would be fine. But it's not.
Still sux.

I fail to see how this is a big problem. The banner ad is barely noticeable. The ads between waypoints is a minor annoyance, that is all. In return, you get access to every single piece of equipment in the game, a bank, and finally be able to do everything a member can do with King Coins. If you really are so bothered by the ads, then get membership. Even with three people playing as you claim, 15 dollars a month is a small fee. If you can't afford that, I fail to see how you managed to afford three computers: you do have three computers, right? You don't? Only one? In that case, why not use one account and make three characters on it, one for each person (hope there is no rule against account sharing, I'm not advocating anything)? Do you perhaps find the game not worth the 5 dollars per month? Then play free and stop complaining, it won't change anything. Ah, can't stand ads no matter what? I have an idea! Quit. Play something you think IS worth the money.

Ahh.. you assume that, because I back the ads, I am a paying member? I am not. I stopped my payed membership before ads came out for RL reasons.

Don't assume things.
