I think for players more ads would always be welcome if they in fact increase loot. I`ve never ran with them off so I can`t comment about any differences. Not that I like listening to them but if there is a possibility of greater reward then that`s how I run. I figure it shows support for the practice too. The tough part is showing value from the ads to those who buy them. And having ran quite a few sites and trying to sell to people I know it`s not always easy. Targeting has to be well directed and the investment low enough to promote continuation of running the ads. That`s a part we may never know. Perhaps they companies did`nt see too much roi?
What would be nice and how I envisioned ads could work is that the revenue could be shared in the form of better loot. As if we are investors in
EU which we are in many ways.
MA brought us
EU and we allow it to survive with our time and money invested. Any acknowledgement of that fact I think would do wonders for relations.
