Look, I know it's been suggested before.

Basically, they'll be real moving ads, not just a picture. As usual, it can't be longer than 30 seconds and would repeat again after it's finished and will play without the person clicking it (this will require a new option in the Account bar).

Video ads would take 1200 robux to create due to sakes of moderation, and then the players would also have to bid for the ad like usual. Only BC would be permitted to create video ads, for the sake of moderation and the fact that you need BC to create a video for your place.

Finally, you're only allowed to have 1 video ad running at a time with a 6 hour cooldown. You'd be allowed to run any other ads during this, just not video ads.

If you're going to disagree, please give a reason.
Thanks for reading my ideas.

Oh, and here's another idea, not sure you'll agree with this though.

Higher BC = longer video.

example,
BC = 31 seconds
TBC = 45 seconds
OBC = 1 minute

Seems fair due to the rule with the amount of places you can have.
Because if we're gonna have these, we might need more image moderators. More moderators = more money needed.

Star, 1000 -1200 robux seems fair, due to the cost of uploading a thumbnail to your place. Of course, you'd have to pay for the bid as well, so it might be reasonable to make it 800.

No reason not to other than the extra time the administrators have to take to review all of the video ads, but they deserve all of that bore. I think your price is good, because usually people would see ads more than the video on a game. So support.

@DoctorTempest, well, once you get it approved, you have it forever, so I still think it's reasonable.

Yeah, the cooldown's there so the moderators don't have as much to moderate and players aren't seeing the same ad the whole time.

The problem with this is that people will trick you that it is a video ad, making you click it and instead of a video playing, you go to whatever the ad leads to.

Solution, video ads play without you clicking them. Or moderators could just unapprove those ads

Hmm, there could be an option in account settings for that. I think they should, because offsite ads do.

These might be cool, the only things I don't like about this idea is: 1) they cause a lot of lag, and 2) NBC members wouldn't be able to make them.

I think NBC members could be able to make, let's say, 15 second video ads. Then BC members still get special privileges, but NBC members don't feel left out. Because there are a lot of limits on NBC members these days...
