Advertisements

[Mooncalf]

You'll soon start to see a few ads showing around the forum and login page. Now, I really hate ads, so I wanted to take a moment to address this update.

For now, the ads in-game will only show up on the login page, and they'll be limited to a single banner. We won't be adding ads to to the game in any way which will feel like an onslaught, or ruin the game (such as slowing it down). There will never be any popups, and we want to make it so that the frequency at which you see ads are a bare minimum. Likewise, for the forum ads we want them to be as rare and restrained as possible.

With the exception of the login page, if you've bought karma recently*, we'll be making it so that no ads show up for you (on the account you're logged in as) anywhere in game or on the forum. Though this might take a little while to take effect.

Should Path become extremely active, we'll likely disable ads again, as there will be no need for them with a huge player base. Until then, they are a necissary evil, but we'll keep them to a bare minimum.

I personally am completely fine with people using ad-blocker, but if you love Path and want to support it, enabling ads for the mooncalfstudios domain would be most appreciated (right click on ad blocker, and click disable for pages on this domain).


* Edit to amend this: due to the way the ads system is coded on the forum, we're going to make it so that instead of your ad free experience expiring, anyone who has ever bought a total of 50 karma or more goes ad-free from that moment on.
