Add advertising to shoutbox back but with limitations.

Yea I know going get trashed but advertising is a perk of premium. There are other solution to fix the advertising problem by make it longer to wait up to 15 minutes or limit the amount you advertise in a day with shoutbox. This is business market not a place to chat. If you want chat, head to team speak. Problem solve on both sides.

You can do that in teamspeak though to chat with people. It marketplace not a place to chat.

How about the vice versa xD

The only reason you want to advertise there is because people use it as "a place to chat", an not a marketplace.
If it was only used for advertisements, nobody would read what gets posted there, and your ads would be useless.

Shoutbox is our one little place to talk with other members.
It is a place to talk, it isn't a marketplace.
Don't try turning it into another ad sidebar that everyone ignores.

You made a good point but what is the point of teamspeak then if no one uses it as a premium, if we use shoutbox to chat. I am just saying adding restriction to the advertisment instead of completely remove it. As I know, the community didnt have a say in removing advertising from shoutbox. There might be different perspective in your view.[DOUBLEPOST=1457890602][/DOUBLEPOST]What are the negatives of advertising of the service where most people get the service come from? Also the poll for ads is like 50/50 so there might be a compromise for this solution.
