The ads have to be kid friendly, but other then that, the title says it all.

It's funny when ROBLOX doesn't allow GIFs as ads when the ads you get if you're NBC are animated...which are what gifs are.

I'm not sure about GIFs. Yet, they already allow ads from off the site here on ROBLOX. Mainly for marketing reasons to sponsor. I'm not entirely sure about GIFs I will have to look into that and see if I agree or not.

Animated ads would be cool, but I can see the GIFs having so few frames that it would just look outright disgusting...

An option to opt out would be nice.

I can already see the hundreds of ads that trolls would put up just to give people seizures.

@8s

@theiberianclock

mods aren't immune to epilepsy
and even if they're not prone to seizures, it's irritating to look at flashy gifs endlessly.

not only is it tiresome to moderate gifs, it's also bothersome for users. not every user will be in favor of having gifs. they're distracting and irritating after a while to the point where a user will have to refresh their page.

-Epileptic user goes on ROBLOX-
-Sees a rainbow/strobe ad-
-Has a seizure-
-Lawsuit-

And don't you think it'd take a WHILE for the mods to check EVERY frame for inapproprite content? They would probably just skim it, which could easily leave bad content to be passed. Or, it would take an INCREDIBLY long time to moderate the ads, and users would get mad because it takes so long.
