Wishing there was a way to control and block some ads

I know, if you play Candy Crush Saga, you have to watch a lot of ads, I accept that. However, I wish there was an easy way to block some ads. I am sick of seeing the Jackpota.com ad. It's annoying, it's doing something that shouldn't be allowed. The ad features three countdowns to exit, and when you click on the first "X" that comes up, it takes you to a website. Then you go back to the game, it counts down five again, you click another X to exit, and it counts down another three. To take this further, there should be an easy way for CCSaga players to block specific ads and never have to see them again.

I've seen a few such ads with three countdowns feature in my game as well (not Jackpota but different ones that do the same) and they are really annoying! Ads have become longer and more annoying lately. I fear this may be part of King's attempt to increase their income from adverts and my guess would be that we see more of these annoying ads because they will provide better revenue for King than shorter and more straightforward ones. Whatever King change in all aspects of the game is based on revenue, so that is likely the reason.

TEnable selection between ads

Yes, in the last month or so I've received some ads that were 60 seconds long. That's too long in my opinion.

Sorry, I'm not sure what "Enable selection between ads" means.

Thanks!

TEmpowerment means giving people the opportunity to choose.

At least you get the ads. A lot of us no longer get ads, except 3 ads every move you make from King wanting you to buy stuff. And when the ads from places other than King disappeared so was the ability to get boosters and other goodies without having to buy them. I’ve been stuck on the same game (5054) since Saturday Dec 21, it’s the 24th now. No boosters to move on with.

Thanks. I wasn't aware of the reference.

I know what you mean. I no longer get the "Secret Cinema" and boosters are very hard to come by now because I won't pay money for them. I'm down to one gold bar and no boosters, and trying to beat a Nightmarishly Hard level.
