This stuff belongs on the launcher. Not as a popup that gets in my way when I may be logging into space instead of a station or citadel.
I could even understand if it was a notification, so long as its not in my face right when I might be trying to get off grid/cloak/etc.

Once they took away Alliance ads and put in ads for the NES this was only a matter of time.

This pop-up prevented my second account from loading for several minutes. It was fine for the first one, which had the character docked, but not on the second one, which was outside.
To CCPs defense, though, must I say that putting it on the launcher only leads to it being ignored by most people. The only way to raise awareness about something is to literally shove it into everyones faces without any way of avoiding or ignoring it.
Of course, there will always be those who even ignore such a pop up, but the point of the exercise is to minimize the amount of people doing so. Convinience is of no concern when it comes to this, otherwise they’d not be doing it this way.
A marketing guy who’s not smart enough to sell himself above his value is quite hilarious.

I don’t think “selling” is an issue for most marketing people. The problem is when “quality” and “specifics” come up.

Accounting, actually.
Marketing doesn’t like it when we audit their shenanigans. Heads tend to roll.

I for one love the pop-up windows. I desperately need to know how many NPCs I have to kill to get bonus skill points so I can immediately apply all of those skill points to Sarcasm.
(They really need to be made far less obstructive in nature, or moved to the launcher.)
