Uglyhat Posted September 18, 2016 Posted September 18, 2016 So, I wanted to ty Aslain's rather than Solo's pack for a change. With Solo's I gladly 'donated' $20 with each major update. Aslain's wants me to disable my adblock software. NO. I pay through the nose for my bandwidth, via cellphone out here in the sticks. No way in hell I undo my adblock software so I can PAY for advertisements. I will gladly 'donate' or pay directly for mods, software, etc. But I encourage all of you, especially those of us with limited bandwidth to say NO to mandatory ads. Looks like Solo gets another $20.

Moderator Quaksen Posted September 18, 2016 Moderator Posted September 18, 2016 Funny post. Complaining about ads, but not using brain capacity to click the DIRECT link, which is why it's there. To avoid the ads, and you can still go and donate afterwards. There are NO MANDATORY ADS here. 1 Quote
Uglyhat Posted September 19, 2016 Author Posted September 19, 2016 From the following link, on this forum: If I am mistaken, do correct me. If you find this funny, I believe your sense of humor is decidely off. Quote
Moderator Quaksen Posted September 19, 2016 Moderator Posted September 19, 2016 Yes, I do kinda find your post funny. Since you seem to think the ads are mandatory. But they're not. You can go right around them to download the modpack. On that very link you posted. You'll see: eu mirror #1 eu mirror #2 usa mirror #1 usa mirror #2 torrent And right behind all of them, is a "direct" link, which bypasses the ad page. 2 Quote

Aslain's makes the ads optional. They have been optional for as long as I can remember. No one has to view ads to download the modpack. That is why you always have the "direct" link to bypass the ads. Every link that includes ads to support the website is also paired with a "Direct" link directly next to it where you only get the desired download. Any type of payment is 100% completely voluntary. I encourage you to ask for help/information in a polite, nice way and you will probably be surprised at the outcome....especially here in this forum. 3 Quote
LionHeart Posted September 19, 2016 Posted September 19, 2016 ... But don't forget to donate occasionally... I know I need to do it more frequently... Aslain puts a lot of work into his modpack, and he's usually WAY ahead of his peers in getting an initial pack out to us after a WOT update comes out. He's dependent on others to update their individual mods, but he gets SOMETHING out as soon as he can. Donation inbound... Quote
bubs79 Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 aslain still managed to get us a working mudpack whilst he was on holiday with his family , u wont see that kind of dedication from others 2 Quote
