    Generally, video ads pay so little that they're not worth having unless everyone that plays is watching them frequently. For something that players have to choose to see and get no direct benefit from, it might never even pay for the time it takes to implement and keep up to date.

    5k gold per ad watched? I mean rich people won't watch them but the poor will, even I would watch the videos. You guys might have 100 people watch an ad per 10 minutes or less.

    With some quick napkin math, that comes out to less than a dollar a day. I'll stick with my opinion of them.

    Oh ok, I agree not to do videos then. I thought it would be around 50$ a day.
