When someone such as myself owns the content that you can buy on this amazing site. is it possible to not have the blue banner at the top trying to sell me digital books I already own? I know it is only one click to dismiss it, but it throws me off every time, my inner child getting excited at maybe another preorder to find out is is for something I already have. 

I second this! Already paid for Xanathar’s as well!

Please, please disable the NAG HEADER! It serves no purpose to subscribers except to ANNOY THEM.

I'll add another yes to this.

I shouldn't have to click it each time I come to the site. I'm logged in, set a silent preferences. I have cookies enabled, set a cookie. Whether I have the book or not is frankly irrelevant - I chose dismiss, it should stay gone until I log out or something. It's also, technically a type of advertisement and one of the perks of my subscription is no advertisements.

I can understand it for people coming to the site while logged out or haven't been back to the site in a while, but I haven't left the site - I've just kept it up and open in my browser and just refresh after a while (not even an hour!) and recheck forums - so why does it keep popping back?

I agree wholeheartedly. When this site shows me an ad for content I already own on this site I find it very annoying.

I’ve been a member for over a year, and already purchased both the PHB, and XGtE as well as other books. I have a Master Tier payed subscription. So I just have to ask: Why do I keep seeing a blue banner at least once an hour advertising me things I have already purchased? As a paid subscriber, why am I seeing this advertisement at all...?

****ing THIS.  I've been here since 2017, I literally own every single piece of content besides the Tactical Maps.  I have a Master Tier sub that has been very close to 3 years consistent.  Please, please please, get rid of this bloody thing telling me to buy something I already own.

Yup agreed.... also if i click something off, dont then advertise the same thing to me again; next time I visit.

I have all the books and a master sub; which was ALOT of money, considering I already have all the books in physical form. At the very least I dont want pestered to buy virtual dice that serve no purpose. The master subscription alone, should give me an advertisment free experience!

Please stop pestering me, its just very annoying.

I am in the same boat as you are, I can not buy anything else on here.

 It really feels like someone at Beyond just learned how to use this thing, and is now overusing it. If this happened with a product at my work, I'd be looking at the team in charge of the product to see if they got a new member or someone got a new title or something. Whatever the cause is, they need to cool it a bit, and they specifically need to avoid doing any "the same advert but differently worded" stuff. I'm sure the will say they don't have the tech to stop it advertising stuff to people who already own it, but the answer there is to be very judicious about how you use this tool, not to randomly spam us with it.

Yeah, I’m finding it annoying, too.  I don’t mind it so much when there is a new release although it still would be nice it it could remember that I’ve seen and dismissed the banner. But half a dozen invites to buy older material I already own is annoying.

BadEye, with respect, I think you've missing the point.

We are also not complaining that you have the banner, merely that it is too persistant. If we're read it and clicked dismissed we should not have to keep clicking it again and again.

If the banner is just to say "hey we still have these books", you can include a check. You have this check in search functions, you have it on info pages (race, class, etc), it's a check that determines if we have unlocked that content or not. You can just copy/paste this check, tweak it and use that to determine if the banner should display or not. This lets you ensure the banner won't advertise things we already have.

You have ways to not have it annoy us every 40-60 minutes. That's what we're complaining about. Not the fact you have the banner, but the fact it keeps popping up again and again and again no matter how many times we have to keep clicking Dismiss.

Too late, buddy, it's already been added to my adblocking software.

Not missing that at all - I was saying that I appreciate that feedback and we will be making adjustments going forward to address it.

I was simply explaining why this has been an issue of late...because we're starting to use it as a tool and that tool isn't "tweaked" to how it can best work yet, including the persistence for users in different "states." This is what I meant by saying "too prevalent."

 
Your response is a bit confusing. You did not actually state in your post you were addressing this issue though or were making adjustments in this respect. You're also clarifying what you 'meant by saying "too prevalent"' but you never actually said "too prevalent". Nothing in your post made mention of the banner's persistent nature in any way, or that you would address it. That's why it seemed like you missed the point, because your post didn't mention it all, only explained why you have the banner in place.

Or perhaps it's just me.

I do appreciate you taking the time to respond though. Thank you for that.

I apologize for the confusion - I didn't mention it because I understood that was the underlying issue of the feedback, and so my saying we were paying attention to "the feedback" was intended to mean that we would be making those tweaks going forward.

Thanks!

 
I see. Thank you for clarifying.
