I do not watch the ad, but I resent greatly it being put there in the first 
place. 

There was a thread a couple weeks back on the hlds list regarding community 
servers doing this in TF2.  While I don't agree with their decision to use ads 
on their servers I can at least understand their reason for doing so.  Running 
a community costs a lot of money and ads help them pay these costs.

This to me is a different situation.  Pinion is not trying to run a community.  
They've undoubtedly bought their status as official servers from Valve, and now 
they're going to use that status to churn out advertising revenue from players 
who don't know any better being siphoned into their servers by the matchmaking.

  You watch the ad? Just click OK and don't worry about it

    If the official Valve sanctioned experience is one in which you're forced 
to watch a Pinion ad every time you want to play a game why exactly does this 
game have a price tag attached to it?

    Splitting up the matchmaking into official and community pools is already 
salt in the eye to those of us trying to run communities. But letting an 
advertising agency run official servers held above all of our community servers 
is shady as fuck for a game that you're charging money for.
