Ads After Purchasing Post Master General

I purchased the Post Master General Package in the NationStates store, and I still see ads.

However, I only see ads when I'm in the forums. I don't know if this is just how it is, and this is normal, or, if something is wrong.

Thanks for your help!

This certainly isn't normal. Check your settings. Do you have "Site Supporter: No advertisements" checked?

I'm actually having the exact same problem! It's especially annoying when one of those ads with sound pop up

Check your settings to make sure the " No advertisements" checkbox is checked.

The quickest fix is usually to turn the "no ads" toggle off in your nation's Settings, click Update, then turn it back on.

This error can occur if the connection between gameside and forumside gets interrupted, preventing the setting from being communicated to the forum. If you retry, it should go through.

I have it toggled "off."

It still is showing them.

Great! That worked!

I just toggled it off, and then on, and now, I don't see ads! Thank you!
