  • I get that you guys make your money off of ads to continue working on Aternos but I would like to recommend some changes to the way ads work. First off, there are annoying pop ups every single time you reload a page without an adblocker, even though if you use an adblocker it says, and I quote “We promise you that our advertisements will not appear in annoying popups or similar.” yet you do (yes, not the entire screen but part of it is covered up and is generally annoying). I would like for this to be changed so an ad like this appears at around like 3-4 page refreshes. This is a big deal because pretty much every time you want to view the console, go to files or etc. your always greeted with an annoying ad.

    Popups are ads that open in a separate browser window or tab. We don't have something like that.

    If an ad opens a new browser window or tab please report it, so we can take action.


    yet you do (yes, not the entire screen but part of it is covered up and is generally annoying).

    What exactly is annoying and what is not is felt differently by each person. Personally I don't think it annoys.


    During the introduction of this display position we weighted many things.

    For example we made sure that this video ad does not play any sounds on it's own. We positioned it at a location where it should not cover content's etc.



    We'll take your report into consideration, but right now this is the first report that I see saying that the small video ad is annoying. If more users complain about it, we will examine what can be done, as we have done in the past.
