What is Boxing Duel?
Why do I need to ads for that when I sign into GPro?
Do Supporters get these hindering ads that slow down the sign in?
Do I have to pay a No-Spam tax here? It kind of sucks really.
Ad Block stops most of the junk that latches on to vacant parts of the screen and I highly recommend it. But I really don't like these pop ups at all.

If you don't want ads, become a supporter. Don't promote ad-block because the people who run this great site rely on that income to fund this game for people like you.

We didn't make GPRO millionaires yet so they still need adverts to run their business unfortunately

You don't have to. Ps. virtually all free to play games have adverts.....it's fairly normal tbh

The adverts that pop up can vary depending on your historic web activity, for example the adverts I see are .... .well , you get the idea :)

You don't have to pay them?
So Gpro still gets no money from me. I might as well use Ad Block then, yes?

Pretty sure GPRO will get a small amount of money just for you seeing the ad. They get the money from Google or something similar.

I am not so sure about that one. I got some strange message when I logged in today. Something about awarding 6 "points/credits/whatever" to me for my first log in today to play tennis. :-O

Just ask admins to remove the ads because you use a girl's picture. Worked for me when I showed them my boobs.

I'm a supporter and am getting these ads on signing in too.
Thought part of the reason for being a supporter was that you didn't have this stuff put in your face.
Have no issue with adds being in the main game for none supporters, for sure GPRO need to make there money somehow, but putting adverts above the sign in and then another during the sign in process is pretty cheeky to be honest.
Supporters pay for a number of reasons, one is so we are not subjected to adverts.

Actually, the supporter perk is specifically no adverts in game. And they are only perks of supporting the game.
The fact that you do support the game means you surely want it to grow, so I don't see the problem with these ads at sign in if they benefit the game by helping it grow. Once signed in, you have no further ads.

Sorry but nonsense. The only reason I come to this site is because I play the game, in order to get to the game I sign in. If GPRO want to make money from people that are not supporters, I understand that, fair enough, do that after they sign in, don't affect the people that are actually supporting the game.

Is it really an advert if it doesn't link you to something that you can buy?
