It’s simple. Have a gripe about all the ads or a specific ad or inappropriate ad content? Leave your comments here.
Is Pix not paying out or has the attention tl your project been less than acceptable? Leave a comment here.
Have any suggestions for Pix? Leave it here.
My hope is that this gets used as input to Pix to improve an aspect of the game that has had its share of problems for a long time.

I would like to post the opposite and thank ALL the ads that close instantly or are below 10 seconds. Those are truly a blessing. |

My hope is that this gets used as input to Pix to improve an aspect of the game that has had its share of problems for a long time. I watch ads that don’t pay out sometimes. Is that a glitch or does Pix put a limit in it? If so that’s not fair. Don’t leave my “watch ad” button blue if you’ve cut me off. Political ads. Ugh. I play the game to escape that nonsense then I have to endure a political for a candidate I can’t stand? I can appreciate that some allow you to opt out after 5 secs but it’s still makes me rage close this app. And TikTok and Home/Garden Scapes. Ugh!  . Am I right? Wouldn’t it be great to have an opt out button that at least will block an ad or limit the amount of time you see it in a row or in one day? |

And what is up with watching a 30 sec ad only for it to switch screens and hold you hostage to another 10-15 seconds?! |

And the 「dookie」 with the lack of pay out for watching ads continues! Sitting on 10hs and change for a weps to upgrade and wasted 2 more making it a 5x today alone! Whatâs recalling pissing me off is not just the lost time in watch som insipid TikTok ad but that Iâd have to play again to get that back and Th were is no guarantee that I will because it will do that 「dookie」 over and over until something (never know what or when) will reset it.
And we all know that these rewards accumulate. When that time counter sticks you can waste ALL of them without knowing unless you pay attention.
And when I think of the hundred of times this has happened I should be sitting in a fortune of resources for my lost in-game time. And donât get me started about pain and suffering expenses, lol!

Why do TT ads have to be so vapid? It hurts my IQ! |

The one I see most often is the really bright LED light. It actually might be something I’d consider.

I consider any of the ads that show products that look cool but then take you to a Facebook store to be highly suspect. I looked up one of the stores, Ludozo, that had really cool ads, like that folding cart/dolly for $10, but found an article calling Ludozo a fake store. Rule of thumb, if something looks too good to be true, it usually is.

I looked up one of the stores, Ludozo, that had really cool ads, like that folding cart/dolly for $10, but found an article calling Ludozo a fake store. Rule of thumb, if something looks too good to be true, it usually is. So I recently had to help someone with figuring out what was going on with them since they had gotten a bad deal from one of those ads. Now, I don't know about ALL of them... but I know some of them just link you to someone on the West Coast that has come over from another country that acts as a "product distribution" store for a lot of other places. In reality it's not another company but just a bunch of REALLY cheap crap that they got in lots. The individuals usually reserve several domain names and fb pages and run it out of their house. The problem arises when they don't have whatever it is that someone ordered. They will send out a pack of stickers instead of whatever product it is that they don't have, so that when the order is disputed, they can say "they paid for product, they got product." Other known issues are things like getting a bad counterfeit, or a product that is in the same vein as what was purchased but isn't anywhere near the same thing... like buying Airpods and getting a dubiously named brand like iSound or something's set of wired earbuds that you can find in Walgreens for 10$. So yeah, definitely if it's too good to be true it probably is. The only recourse for many people that got caught is to rant on websites devoted to scams like that... they are definitely out there. IMO, YMMV |

I hate all the ads that show someone in a torture like device that you have to pull the right pin in order to route whatever deadly substance is being held back to the "bad thing", but in the ads they always go to the "hero". What's worse is that the games that are running these ads have NOTHING in them that is in any way close to the ad content. Gardenscapes are whatever it is called is the one I still see all the time.
Some were borderline indecent too... but I digress.

Iâve been in the verge of starting this basic thread for months...I hate that 「dookie」 I seriously *hate* those Gardenscapes ads, and the TortureBuddy games. The Slots. ALL of them. Ridiculous waste of time advertising a ridiculous waste of time. A bunch of them are, like, âextra-sexualizedâ, which is really obvious...again, mostly the slots.... Maybe my least favorite are the re-skinned game mechanics of an absolutely idiotic premise...Evony is the name associated with one, but thereâs at least 2 more *just like it*, in different skins. The slow-motion jigsaw-puzzle assemblies...the simple-minded âBrain-buildingâ world games, One of the really lovely things about BoT: NO ads at all. |

Also want to point out that:
CLEARING YOUR COOKIES AND SEARCH HISTORY AND OPTING OUT OF AD PERSONALIZATION
will fix a lot of issues with 'strange' and 'farfetched' offers.
Come on people it's ?fluffernutter?ing 2020, some of us have been on the net for 25+ years, don't be a stranger. I regularly do this 「dookie」 at least every week or two.

The more annoying adds right now are the two-part journal ads where you get 10 sec of advertisement then you have to hit a green continue button and wait another 10 and hit another green button to continue. The part of this is truly annoying is that it won’t advance in its own and if distracted it won’t just play through effectively making the ad as long as you ignore it. There are even longer ones too for about 2x 30sec.
Here’s a news flash tl Pix: ABSOLUTELY NO ONE IS WATCHING THESE DAMN ADS!!! They’re just a waste of everyone’s time!

The more annoying adds right now are the two-part journal ads ... Exactly! I ?fluffernutter?ing loathe those ads. Not only the Next button but that it shows 2 clumsy pointless pitiful webpages. I think it might be a scam where they’?re making so much money for directing people to webpages for 10+ seconds and that’s just a bit more than the cost of a War Robots ad. Also for me these ads start at 9pm. Before 9pm and it’s a regular variety of game and app ads. After 9pm and it’s ONLY those 2 part ads. Not sure when it stops, somewhere between 6am and noon. This behavior is a relief though because now I just don’t play any ads after 9pm and don’?t see them anymore. ?- - - - - - - - For some reason this is reminding me of a scam by a friend of a friend. He had a website selling religious books, only all the books he ‘sold’ were free upon request from a religious institution. So a customer would send him $15 and their address then he would pocket the money and pass the address off to the institution which would then mail a ‘free’ holy book. He was having to manually enter addresses at websites as orders came in and he asked my friend to automate the process for 50/50 profits. My friend couldn’t do it and asked me to for 1/3 profit. Oh they wanted it so bad, let the computer run, do nothing, and let the money flow in. My cousin is a lawyer and he says it’s legal. Yeah and it’s legal to be a spineless scum sucking leech too; how low of a bar are you working at. Ok all better now  |

Makes me want to hire the Russian mafia to burn their office down. Same thing - 3x as long. And I thought the incessant, insipid TikTok ads were bad. Itâs like there is a science of Suck out there trying to 「fluffernutter」 with peopleâs minds. |
