Subject: wrong isnt it
I know you are gonna jump on me, but we as paying members,, should have the choice of banner adds or not, so why should we have to do something like see those addys just to get points.. Its wrong if you ask me..

Yeah maybe make none paying members (pawns) do it, but I thought there was meant to be advantages to being a paid member??

Cluck: Without knowing what Fencer's aims are, I feel certain that testing the system is not enough reason for having gone to all this trouble and putting up generous prizes.

Stevie Your membership entitles you to many things but there's no reason why it should provide free entry into Fencer's competition. It could but it's not a must. Rather than think of ads as being an insult to your membership rights, see that they are the entry fee to the competition. One which you don't have to pay if you don't want to be in the competition. If Fencer can recoup some of the costs of running these competitions through ad click-throughs that's surely not something you'd begrudge him, is it?

playBunny: What exactly is lost when Fencer gives someone a membership? You had given up paying for memberships, yet you got one for free, what did Fencer lose by giving that to you?

Stevie: I agree, one of the perks of paid membership is not having to see the banner adds, so why should that exclude us from any of the "action"?

Stevie: I keep the ad's on the bottom of the screen (and to the right now), and they don't bother me at all - if I was forced to see them at the top of the screen, then I would not even play with the action points - but where they are - at least I feel that they don't bother me much at all. (plus reminds me to click on them every once and awhile to help Fencer earn a few more cents)

BIG BAD WOLF: Thats a good idea.... it doesnt really matter though, since i think I am on here a lot, and play at least 700 moves a week, many weeks much more, and that wont even get me into the top 500 action points!

Czuch Czuckers:  It's his contest so I guess he can set up the rules anyway he wants  ;)  color me stupid, but I couldn't find the ads on my homepage!  duh.  I've since figured out where they are.  Frankly it's like they aren't really there and I do have the option of not participating.  ;)

Stevie: it's his computation his way, no one likes ad's but his way to check things out rumming in full works with ad's. crazy me i'm not into all this point making deal as some of you are but i sure do love the traffic,lol. many more people playing more games and more moves in a day, i'm loving it when i am here. deside wheather you want the points or just plain jane games. the ad's help him and this site.
