I get that a site like this has to use ads in order to run, and I can NOT express how amazing it is to get to play so many free games, WHILE you are helping developers hone their skills. BUT, please fix the ads, if I ACCIDENTALLY pass my mouse over one of your numerous pop ups, it freezes my game or annoyingly continues to pop up over and over!

Which ad is doing this to you? We can look at it.

This happens to me with the Twix commercial and also the newest car commercial. And even if I get it to stop popping up, the pop up noise continues in a loop. I have to refresh the tab to make it stop.

What you think they gonna do instead of Ads?

This is a free site, but the whole stuff (employees, resources, etc) needs some money, so in one or the other way they need to collect money...

In the end they have two choices: Ads or change this site to collect money directly from users (monthly subscription...) ... and now thinking about how many uses are willing to pay...

I think he meant those pop up ads that freeze your game, not ads in general.

I don't like the minute long unskippable ads that are all over.

I understand that you need ads to run, and I am not going to get on you about that, but the fact that I need to wait through a repeated 30 sec ad for a game i am only trying out and probably won't play for more than a minute is annoying. you can keep the before-game ads, but please have them be shorter or skippable.

I don't think it's within their power to choose wether the ads have a skip button after five seconds or a straight in skippable one minute ad. It is random whichever kind you get, check on YouTube or another game site with ads you'll find it is the same, sometimes you can skip, others you cannot. It's a cruel world I know.

I have found an AD that I believe is inappropriate, it uses many words that AG bans.

2 min video called "Wake up now San Diego Escape...."

Idk if AG can block in-game video ads. I know they can control the MMO ads they have at the sides and on the front page, but other ads seem to be influenced based on your internet surfing history.

What happened here is probably the fact that the video was projected before the game by the advertising company, which chooses those. Armor Games has no control over the videos shown, other than to ask the company to alter their m.o. or stop working with them alltogether. The latter won't be an option, ads = money = free flash gaming.
