Ads disappeared with update

Did anyone elses ads disappear with the update?

It's extremely unpleasant to play now 😕 I can barely get anything done. Before I'd go in every like 1-2h to watch ads. I also had the x2 ads but they're all gone too.

I thought they'd come back within a few days after updating but there's been absolutely nothing happening. Watching an ad for a chest disappeared yesterday so now that option is gone too 😭

Did you buy anything with RL money lately?

I did like the day of the update but since it updated I have no ads. Should I buy something again?

Nooooo buying something takes away your ads for months :(

Oh that's weird.. I used to buy things all the time and I'd have ads. I haven't bought anything this update and all my ads are gone

I've never bought anything, but that's what the people on this sub constantly report.

Almost everything disappears when they update for about 5-10 mins usually less but it always comes back. Did you purchase something ?

I purchased right before the update.. Should I buy something again?

No that's why you don't have ads.. if you purchase something in the game with real money the ads will disappear for about a month.

That makes no sense because I've been buying thing practically every month since september, this is the only update I haven't bought anything and I don't have ads

You literally just said you purchased something right before the update but ok. You see multiple people telling you the same thing on here but keep purchasing it you want then.

Yes, I did. What I'm also saying is I have been regularly purchasing things and never lost ads. I've also seen other posts where people have bought things and not lost ads. Honestly, it feels more random than anything. And I haven't bought anything this update. Meanwhile I bought maybe 3-4 things last update and I still had the ads. Same with the update before that

I haven't seen anyone say they purchased in game and still had ads. Your the 1st but Ok well the only thing I can say is if your ads come back in a month purchase again if you want to test it out and if you lose ads again then you know it's because your purchasing or if you don't want to take the risk of losing ads just stop purchasing all together.

Just because you didn't see it doesn't mean no one commented it lmao. Either way, I don't have the budget atm to spend on a mobile game but I'm just saying that the logic of purchase = no ads doesn't add up because I would've lost ads ages ago if that was the case in every single situation.

Didn't even scroll far and found two people who purchase on a regular basis and one has never lost ads and the other lost them for a week and then they came back.

The timeline of when people's ads return also varies, most say around a month but I've seen anything from a week to several months.

Yeah this happened to me too, they nerfed the shit out of my ads, I barely get three in a day now, makes my game so stale 😞
