Kurdanak Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 If you're getting weird ads, you can probably only blame yourself for the weird shit you've been browsing. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belisarius Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) It's not weird that Sheepy may want to monetize the site with ads. Why shouldn't he maximize revenue? In any case, obtrusive ads may deter players from the game. It's a fine line, but it's the reality of the web today.

The only advertisements in the game is one little banner ad at the bottom of the page that brings in ~$nothing. Quote Is there a bug? Report It | Not understanding game mechanics?

So I shouldn't feel bad about having ad block on. Good to know. Quote 23:38 Skable that's why we don't want Rose involved, so we can take the m all for ourselves 23:39 [] but Mensa is the cute girl at the school dance and she's only dancing with us right now to get our friend jealous 23:39 [] If Rose comes in and gives Mensa what she wants, she'll just toss us aside and forget we ever existed 23:39 zombie_lanae yeah I do hope we can keep having them all to ourselves 23:40 zombie_lanae I know it's selfish but I want all their love 6:55 PM <+Isolatar> Praise Dio Pubstomper|BNC [20:01:55] Rose wouldn't plan a hit on Mensa because it would be !@#$ing stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it brings in no money perhaps you should switch it to an impression based model? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Alex Posted April 20, 2015 Administrators Share Posted April 20, 2015 If it brings in no money perhaps you should switch it to an impression based model? It's both impressions + clicks, but impressions pay out very, very little. Quote Is there a bug? Report It | Not understanding game mechanics? Ask About It | Got a good idea?

There are no pop-up ads on the site, it might be some add-on, your ISP, or a virus? Quote Is there a bug? Report It | Not understanding game mechanics? Ask About It | Got a good idea?

Because presumably it is bringing in *some* money? Perhaps we could do a "book of the month club" with Sheepy using an Amazon ref link ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then how would stuff stay free without pay to win? I'm actually interested in this, so I'll do the math for Bloc... Soon. Better than nothing, I guess.
