Player Advertisements are, from this point onward, limited to either one image with a maximum size of 1000 pixels by 100 pixels, or 300 characters and up to 3 line breaks. This is to minimize the amount of space that advertisements take up.

Secondly, when you purchase a Player Advertisement, they now last for 10 days and 100,000 views, instead of 7 days and 70,000 views previously. Extending an ad now adds an extra 14 days and 140,000 views.

Lastly, the Donate page has received a bit of a makeover, so check out the new renovations when you get a chance.

For those of you that attempted to buy credits in the past few days, you saw that purchases were temporarily disabled. I'm happy to announce they're re-enabled. You can purchase credits on the Donate page.

Player Advertisements are now displayed 100% of the time, instead of 20%. This is to help address concerns about inconsistency of page content, and how it randomly moves about every time an ad is displayed.

A setting has been added to disable player advertisements. This setting is available on the Account page, below the War E-mail and Anthem Autoplay settings. You must be a VIP member to disable advertisements.

It's that time again! A new month means that everyone's nation bonus donation caps are reset. You can once again purchase and redeem credits for that sweet, sweet cash.

Rates have remained the same; each credit redeemed is worth $1,000,000. You can redeem up to 6 credits. Alternatively, you can buy credits and sell them on the market, but for each credit you sell it counts against your 6 credit cap. You can buy as many credits as you'd like, and you can spend as many as you'd like on cosmetic things like a VIP Subscription, Flags, Name/Location Changes, and Advertisements.

Thanks for playing Politics & War! We're one month away from our 1 year anniversary! Let's keep things going!
