Took me a while to notice but there are mobile specific banners when I browse from my phone.
And you said you did not plan to support mobile platforms.


It is the new advertising network doing it automatically. I did not specifically implement this feature...

The Nosgoth game banner is screaming in my headphones. Doesn't matter you tick the "audio" option to off, next time will still be on.


I don't see this campaign myself, it may be regional. If someone else can confirm that they are also experiencing this issue I will approach the network about it.

I am also experimenting this issue, but only when I am not logged in.

Thanks for confirming. Reported it to the ad network.

EDIT: got a quick response - they are addressing the problem.

Now don't get me wrong, and I am most definately not blaming you in the slightest, Val ... but banners that use sound? That's really a no-go, especially if they can be displayed randomly out of a selection of different ones. I think most people will find sounds in banners even more intrusive than flashing ones, with bright colors . Haven't they learned by now that you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar? . It's 2015!

ICTC 8 banner should be removed from the rotation, since the contest is over.

Thanks. Just a quick note to say that PayPal changed something on their end and the supporter status doesn't apply automatically right now. I'll apply it manually while I figure this out.

Removed ICTC8 community banner from rotation.

I understand that this is minor in the grand scheme of things, but I'd like to get what I paid for.

Technically you paid for nothing, you donated. In legal terms there's a big difference. The HC Supporter status with all the features that it entails is not a paid service to which you are entitled, it's a privilege awarded by Valeriy at his discretion. What he said in the CoC about the feature is a show of good will being reciprocated, but he is ultimately not obligated under the color of law to give you anything. If he wants to keep his word then he is compelled to uphold his end of the bargain and while it is understandable that you make the request with that in mind, it is becoming a bit displeasing to see the insistence and now the change in tone. The best course of action you can take is to stop repeating yourself over and over again and take it to private, HCM Val or a moderator who can get in touch with him in case he doesn't pay attention, someone like Corribus for example. That is my friendly advice for you.

Mind you, I have also donated and I am not bothered by the absence of a golden badge under my name affirming my status. That's not the purpose of my donation, I donated because I wanted to help the community. Everything else I take as a bonus, a privilege, which it is. If you believe differently and have misplaced expectations then I suggest you reconsider donating altogether.

From the FAQ:
Quote:
you can become a Supporter for one year by making a $10 donation.
That sounds like I pay to get the status and is in no way his discretion. If I don't get it, Val isn't keeping his side of the bargain, and it's justifiable to be upset when that happens.
I don't donate for a badge or to support the community, I just want to get rid of the garbage at the top of the page.

Anyway, I'll try to get in touch with him privately.

[Advertisement Blocked by Ad Blocking Software]
Heroes Community has 1 ad per page to fund its upkeep and development. Ads on HC are pre-selected and safe.
You can support HC by using the "Disable on heroescommity.com" option in Adblock, or by becoming a Supporter.


The aim of this message is to inform users about the number and type of ads we have on Heroes Community as well as why the ads are here. It is a positive encouragement to participate in one of our two funding models - either by viewing a low amount of safe advertising or by making a small donation.


I would suggest to tweak the message a bit and mention that with the Adblocking software enabled, they will also miss the promotional banners informing of events such as ICTC contests or tournaments etc.

The HC Supporter automatic transaction system has been broken for a while due to some changes on PayPal I suspect so I have been processing them manually. Somehow by accident I overlooked Mvass donation so thanks for notifying me, it has been credited with no supporter time lost.

I'm happy to announce that HC and AOH now have a sponsor with original HOMM heritage - Creature Quest. Creature Quest is a mobile device game being produced by a team that includes a number of original HOMM visionaries.

You will see their promotional banners on AOH and HC shortly. Just to be clear, this is not like the April joke where HC was sponsored by McDonalds Real sponsor this time.

Specifically for HC:
- The most notable addition is the sponsor banner on the homepage, replacing the HC Games section.
- Leaderboard banners will be circulating in the usual advertising spot, classified as HOMM-related ads for the purpose of HC Supporter ad settings.
- Creature Quest team members are happy to answer questions about both their new game and their work with the original HOMM series, so we will look at the possibility of some interesting Q&As and interviews in the future.
- So far all the new ads are static and if animation will be added in the future we will make sure that it does not create excessive visual irritation for HC and AOH users.
- The circulation allocated to community banners remains the same.

I encourage everyone to give our new sponsor a warm welcome and support the growth of this relationship in the long run. I know that the changes involving an additional ad can be stressful for some people and I appreciate your patience and support for this new partnership.
