Your method also violates their terms of service, users must willingly click on an ad.fly link for the traffic to be considered legitimate. (By the way I toyed around with this idea when adfly was getting big, my account was terminated without warning, and the terms were added to avoid issues like that from happening.)

Players click the Skip Ad button after the 5-second timer expires and it closes the MOTD window that way. It appears fine for most people most of the time, but not for others. Kinda annoying though, as closing the window relies on the page actually displaying. I had to build a 15-second failsafe timer into it to automatically close it.

However, in terms of pinion ads, there will be a new system for them enforced that may cause server owners to force you to want the whole ad. The idea is that they will only pay for ads that have been completely watched. Anyways, what is the URL you are trying to McKay? Maybe its an error with the page?

I tend to click as fast as I can so as not to see the pinion ads. Client side issue for sure, though. On Wed, Dec 19, 2012 at 7:16 AM, Essay Tew Phaun <[email protected]> wrote: Incredibly annoying.
