im wondering about the loading screen ads for the ddo store,is there a way to get rid of them.
i assume you can because theres multiple random ones.i dont want to hear about the store and buying your way through the game.the only thing about the store should be to change hair style/color, grow a beard or remove it etc.and change armor/shields color.
i dont like the store being shoved in my face all the time, buy/buy/buy.and with the note if you go to leave a dungeon youll lose xp and you can buy the stuff you need without leaving the dungeon- plan ahead and stock up/when things go bad recall and restock.
i was fine with the succubuss loading screen pic, getting tired of buy at the ddo store message.i know people are gonna say just ignore it.

I am pretty sure I saw an option to disable the dialog when exiting a dungeon. Check the UI settings for this (at work so I can't verify).

I REALLY hope that is true.... because as a VIP I really don't like seeing an ad to buy something I already have!

Edit: No there is not a way that I saw to disable the DDO store ads on load screens.

I was not referring to load screens, I was referring to the dialog when attempting to leave a dungeon that is not completed yet.

I am at work but I would be willing to bet that it is loading the adds from a specific URL via http. If you could find out what it is and block it you might not see them. This is assuming they were smart enough to program the game to keep loading if the particular link is down. Then again it might just continuously load the last one you downloaded.
