( i dont look at them but if leaving them on gives Forum some extra $$ i wil not turn them off )


agree totally with you,even if it takes a click per hour/day to help fund this game and the improvements needed i believe its in everyones best interests to do so

a small question for forum if i may,
would all the adds be viewed at our own risk or are they checked for harmfull content?

its a trial... i tried to give as much option as possible to turn them off and still not sure if i'll keep them, but thought it worth a try ... (they are yahoo based, opposed to google based, and after all the 'google will rule the world' posts on the markets, i thought i'd give yahoo a shot.....before they bankrupt ;) ).
in short it was a quick thing to do, i am not sure how it will work, not stuck on keeping it, but curious enough to try -- and -- if it helps with the new server planned, bonus.

Can you answer my question rather than avoid it now?

i dont mind the ads, got a new HUGE screen so they take up a tiny bit of it, the only problem with those ads is i dont trust them, i mean i might click them if they had a propper address but no they have AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA in them, how can you trust an address like that?

lol, i think the ads are good. if they help make the game better, i' happy. anyway, they only take up the space that useless banner used to.

honestly - its a trial - if you don't like them - turn them off.... simple as that.

Took the words right out of my mouth,


if we have them on do we get a 5% income/UP bonus?

I have them on because it replaces the really old shoddy looking SGWS banner... perhaps forum should hold a banner creation competition ;)

and let me hold onto the winnings...

where are those ads?

we can only see the same old banners...


but then, we have several things running that block ads, so that might explain us not seeing them...

you would have to keep an eye on turn income & production, while changing hte ads on/off, to see that :)
