    So when joining the Surfservers usually a commercial comes on (which kills your ears and makes you cry).
    Ive heard before that the donator rank is lacking some advantages, so maybe its possible to turn off the commercials for donators?

    @Big Red@Big Red had this idea, though im posting it since im a copycat.

    This shit is on trade as well. I always thought i should suggest to remove them for donors but i thought n0 had his reasons.

    I'd support this otherwise.

    Unless you donate to the servers regularly, your one donation does not cover all server costs forever and ever.

    Just fyi.

    Atleast on TF2 you can use something that ''redirects'' from the ad, like /rules or /forum.

    And on CS:GO the MOTD automatically unloads as soon as you click "OK".
    That's why completion rate on CS:GO servers is almost non-existant (maybe 10%).

    also if you disable motd it removes the damn thing entirely
    it also removes the !radio but who in their sane mind use that cancerous thing anyway

    Nah, the donators have more than enough advantages. Access to the 1-6, fookin epic name thingy, no-clip, potatoes thinking they are admins and being worshiped. LIke, what else would they need?

    Even tho I do agree ads can be annoying as fuck, I hadn't even noticed this one until this thread was created.

    (Plus I'd rate it if noname puts up ads, it's a win/win, he gets money and becomes less lazy and we get a better community administration.)

    Kinda late, but I have updated the ads plugin to a new version, with a patch to not show ads to donators.
