Addon to Auto Hide Minion 3 Advertisements

Hi there and thanks Minion for being awesome. Now that we have advertisements on Minion 3 that we can click shut if we choose (and I always choose), would someone mind making a Minion 3 addon that auto hides the advertisements that I and just about every other sentient creature will hide anyway? Would save us all a click, and I promise we won't tell the Minion advertisers we're all doing this...maybe also make it send back info that makes it appear we're sitting through their ads like good little zombies.

Cheers

I think as long as it is not flashy or distracting it is fine.
That being said I wouldn't mind an option to permanently hide it for addon authors and premium users.

The reason for the ad is because we need a way to support Minion development and the costs associated with hosting Minion/AddOns. We no longer have ZAM behind us.

Once we get a login system back and working (old system used ZAM's oauth) we can look at offering premium services to users and authors again.

Awesome..I was thinking of authoring a mod at some point anyway (I've seen need for a couple of niche addon functions that nobody has done yet)...and how do you become a "premium user" anyway? Is there some kind of subscription (couldn't find anything to click anywhere on this site), or is it just by donating some money to some addon author?

A FAQ on this sort of thing might not go amiss

We had a premium user system with ZAM but since we split away from them we don't have one. I am working on something.
