I had to vote no....

I voted no for my own reasons, I hope Mcdonalds dosnt manage to spread it's corporate filth into Entropia. That is all we need, crafters bitching that the entropia walmart put them out of business

Dont get me wrong it would be nice for some ingame items that could be turned into real life stuff, but let's do the atrox statuettes or something related to entropia. After losing a shit ton of ped at CND at night, the last thing I want is a McSlider poison sandwhich going down my throat.

I would say yes, but I'm sure that even if hogglos will carry billboards on their sides, the lootpool won't see a penny from that money.

I doubt that ads really affect the lootpool, I've had 16 globals with the ads off...

i have heard a lot of people saying that it doesnt matter if ads are on or off and this is quite worrying that we are all told if you have ads on loot will be better. i think we need to get a difinitive answer from MA, DO ADS MAKE A DIFFERENCE TO LOOT? If not why not, because people are paying for them so where is the money going.

Please dont try to put any more silly ideas in MA's head. They do well enough on their own.

Outworld items would be cool for the first five minutes. after that you would have ssssooooooooo many coupons for stuff you could feed third world countries. BTW I garantee every one would have expiration dates.

How many useless soda bottle caps you have around your house now? Or how often are you finding last years monopoly cards around the house from haveing so many repeats. Not to mention that would only take away from actual ped in loot, Ma NEVER adds one thing with out taking away at least 5 other things.

yeah good point about taking away peds, but im thinking wider than mcdonalds, and i didnt realy put forward the ideaa of coupons i was more for the idea of companies paying to get thier name in the game and adding to the funds. like levi jeans instead of basic pattern pants etc, more realworld branding not real world items.
