Whiners on UHall - Make them stop!

My god, i'm reading a thread about UOAssist having adverts on their startup screen, good lord, what a bunch of idiotic whiners.

Some of the comments which amused me

Quote:
when did my uoassit become a billboard?? for this i paid money???
Quote:
Iam already annoyed. I paid cash multiple times for that software and now i got to see google ads upon login. Thats the first software i paid for to see ads.

Quote:
UOA is scam. Pay extra to play the game I payed for in a box. The tugster has made TONS of cash off of this once ILLEGAL program already, yet it is not enough.

This is what outsourcing brings.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Quote:
I didn't buy it. Been playin years now without that crap. The "useful" content of UOA should have been incorporated into the existing client instead of being farmed out to some greedy self-serving hacker like tug.

Quote:
I did not pay to be advertised at, Tugsoft, Inc.
Seriously, people pay what? $15 ONCE and allows users to have unlimited updates, but they're complaining because the UOA launch screen has google ads? lol

How pathetic.

Re: Whiners on UHall - Make them stop!

They're complaining over a couple of adverts? But practically everywhere has adverts, and they don't exactly make a difference.

I would have thought they'd be used to ad's if they go on Stratics, they have huge adverts all over the place.

Re: Whiners on UHall - Make them stop!

I have to agree that UOA should have been incorporated into the client.

The ads wouldnt be a big deal to me (were I still playing) so long as the updates became like they used to be. When ML came out there were constant problems with UOA interfacing with it and updating and then Tugs website was down and I figured it was going to be gone for good...

Re: Whiners on UHall - Make them stop!

I wonder how much people would be complaining if they started charging a per month charge instead of having ads.. It would be a good way to stop people from complaining!

Re: Whiners on UHall - Make them stop!

I bought it for the main account I use. Noticed the change in the startup screen the other day. What bothered me wasn't the ads.. heck those are everywhere and I am happy with the product, so that row of ads is not an issue. I wasn't thrilled that the startup screen was so much larger and could not be 'sized'. Even that is not something to really complain about. But as we all know, there are plenty of people out there who just LOVE to gripe. It's their main form of 'fun'. (sad isn't it)
