    Android users do not have access to the Halloween version.

    In the case of the Rs Halloween pop up this is not really an ad but a push notification to players that there is a new game to Download. There have been many requests on the forum(and I am sure alot more to support by email) that TL try and notify players when new things come out through their games, since alot of a players do not visit the forum.
    Hopefully it will only last a short period.

    I know its a hassle, but I have numeruous nbrs that never come to the forum. I like other forum members try to post on our game walls when there are new things going on.
    I had 2 nbrs on farm last night that asked me where I got my candy corn, they did not know about the new Farm Halloween download.

    They are not only annoying, they also create havoc with harvesting. Twice now I have received a notification that my crops are about to wither. The pop ups prevent me from getting to the crops in time to harvest them. I don't mind seeing them when I first log in and get my coins for the day....but each time I log in? It's not one advertising pop up, it's:
    1). Advertisement for new games
    2). Advertisement for new "mystery boxes"
    3). Notice that you have new messages

    Each has to be closed in order to proceed.

    All of which I personally find quite useful.
    Obviously I know it's not always going to be possible, but try getting to your crops before the last minute.

    Okay. So some farmers need notifications because they don't come to the forums. But EVERY 5 MINUTES? I timed them yesterday & today, & that's how often I get the pop-up for installing a new Story! I use an iPod Touch, an already small screen, and it keeps getting smaller with Story icons in the corner and now covering up my messages icon, which I never get to see anymore! Why on earth do we need these annoying pop-ups every 5 minutes in addition to these? If my children came back that often to ask for the same thing, I'd send them to their rooms! Unfortunately, I can't do that to TeamLava.

    I am on iphone 4 and I did get the download RS Halloween yesterday about 3-4 times only, but I do not have any other ad pops up anymore. I did download all the games from the ads and deleted the games
    I did not want.

    But every 5 minutes? Give me a break! How about each time you get on? Once a day would be enough, but each time would be a compromise.
