#

It's about paid advertisements. As in someone gives Rec Room money, not as a collab, and Rec Room gives ads

#

Basically mobile game ads

#

Also, doesn't this only happen on VR? Idk if that makes a difference

#

And in any case, it only takes a single button to close

I play on PC and I've never had the pop up until I log on to VR

STOP GLAZING RECROOM AND TRYING TO DEFEND THEM

solemn burrow
#

There's a difference between glazing and combating nonstop negativity

#

all you ever do in this server is complain, it gets annoying

opaque meteor
#

Difference between glazing and telling you that what they're doing is allowed.

No I did

#

And on Steam (PC) I've never had a popup

You don't need to DM me the image 50 times and call me a dumbarse mr tempvo

"Engage with advertisements in order to play" A pop up ad for cosmetics does not violate this.
Also, a little bit further into it says "Making your game free to play with optional upgrades sold via Microtransactions or Downloadable Content" Which is what it does with the bundles.

The second point does not apply, there are no watch for rewards feature in Rec Room. I believe this part was misinterpreted, seeing an advert shouldn't affect gameplay is what it is implying.

Rec Room has never been in a sale, bundle, or franchise.

Rec Room has collaborated with other brands and have displayed them in the Rec Center with proper permissions or licenses.

#

Adding onto the second point
Making it so that you need to watch an ad to play the game is not allowed
Giving rewards to player who watch ads is not allowed
That is what "Developers should not use advertising as a way to provide value to players, such as giving players a reward for watching or engaging with advertising in their game." implies

#

Perhaps Rec Room is breaking some other policies but this one is not the one

#

I'd like for you to explain your reasoning

#

It seems like they left the server

If only

They're a small child who gets mad when peoven wrong.

raw lynx
#

opaque meteor
#

Because they blocked you.

I think that’s very childish

Opinions are meant to be debated

They also had a great time freaking out over Rec Room's moderation. I understand it needs to get fixed, but they whined and yelled over it. This shouldn't be a catfight, it should be a debate.
