They get most of their money from Premium/Pro. Ads wont do stuff for a major file hosting service, but reliable (and large) sums of money will.

When people try defending the type of ads that Mediafire uses, the blatant lying that Mediafire is doing right now, and the random bullstuff they pull to try to attract people into buying the premium service nobody wants
Even the normal ads on the website make it look like some 90s stuffshow website with all of the massive "DOWNLOAD!!!!!!!!!" buttons

yeah? because there's literally loving more, and quit connecting it to the game. you have to be actually loving dense if you think the blockland FORUMS runs on alternative blockland accounts, why would badspot enable an ad bot otherwise??

we're talking about the forums and only the forums, not the game itself.

So, none of the money that blockland rakes in helps support the forums?

no website relies entirely on their pro options. the amount of money generated by ads far exceeds that generated by premium accounts, which is why they use ads.

look
it even has the mediafire logo for the hard of eyesight such as yourself

i can remember the day that adverts where introduced to the blockland forums, and I am pretty sure it boiled down to making money off freeloaders who don't have accounts on the website. i think it is a bit of an exaggeration to say that blockland relies on adverts to stay afloat.

"it even has the mediafire logo for the hard of eyesight such as yourself"
what do you mean by this? among all the stuffty, deceptive adverts there's a mediafire logo, so that makes it ok!!!! oh, i guess it's just a coincidence that almost all the adverts on the page look like a download button!!!

you know, even adbot's signature makes fun of the absurd adverts that are going round the internet.
