These ads are horrible.

So what used to be the grey space (*edit- The equipment and marketplace page.) Is an advertising area.
I don't have problems with that, but please...

DO NOT LET IT BE PINK AND BLUE FLASHING LIGHTS SAYING WALMART 1000$ FREE WINNER WINNER!

It was so bad, I really think they need an epileptic warning sign.
Was literally right in the middle of the page, blinking and flashing and whatnot.

I understand that advertising space is a great way to help fund the site, but really, let's not turn our character page into a flashing mess.

It was such an eyesore, that after I saw it I posted on the forums immediatley.

Yes, I know from whence I came! Discontented as a flame, Upon myself I live and glow. All I grasp like lightning flashes, All I leave behind is ashes
Flame I am - that much I know!

I'm jelly, I don't have advertisements yet.

I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

If you're a true supporter you'd disable AdBlock for C-RPG.NET, ads are the only thing that can keep this game going.

These are Google ads anyway, they're always horrible, normal ads usually aren't.

When all you can see is adds, or popups then complaints might be merited. Until then grin and bear it.
