![]() ![]() Neither I, nor anyone else, agreed to view ads in exchange for playing chess here. Why not be thankful they are not making it a paid only service, and welcome the opportunity to provide them back with some nominal advertising revenue to cover the costs of a free service you are taking advantage of?įull disclosure - I am not associated with in any way and I am not a paying member. By finding ways not to allow them to recover these costs in accordance with their business model, you are effectively stealing that free service. To make this free service to you worth their while, they are posting advertisements that they can earn back some revenue to cover the costs of the FREE services they are providing to you. They have provided you with a great website, and the opportunity to participate completely free of charge. ![]() If you don't want to see the ads, I personally recommend checking out the YouTube streams instead.Sorry to take the opposing viewpoint here - but just what is it you all expect? Do you think magically gets computer time for free to put up this web site? Do you think bugs that get noted in posts, and then fixed, magically fix themselves? Do you think spam attacks in the message board just magically disappear? I could go on and on. The purple screen you are getting is a result from using certain adblock or script blocking plugins. Some advertisement rolls are controlled by the streamer ( staff) but some are also automated by Twitch itself without streamer input. Twitch is an entirely separate website with its own rules - including subscription rules under the Twitch platform. Otherwise, I'll reduce my subscription to Gold. Is there something I miss? Does have the same coverage somewhere without Twitch and its adds and nag screens? The subscription page clearly says No adds for the three plans. ![]() Is it then normal that when I follow the the World Championsship (or others), I get a 30s purple screen blanking out the underlying Twitch feed every 10 minutes or so? And if I click through to Twitch, besides the overloaded screen of uninteresting chats, I have to endure advertisment every so (too) often - this while having the privilege to pay $100 a year? That is supposed to give me some benefits for the not so small amount I pay every year. ![]()
