People complain about forced ads. That is why they aren't doing them.

The majority of the people will not spend money on Gold. The population on this site of people saying they have spent thousands are likely unrepresentative of the majority of the players.

So you make gold very expensive and cars expensive in gold costs, but you give players an option. Ads. Now it feels like a bargain and people really do not equate the time the same as they calculate monetary costs.

This is a classic marketing tactic. I probably would have gotten an A during my degree if I had turned in a paper suggesting a marketing plan like this. Of course it's a market plan. What I am saying is that watching ads is NOT THE REASON of servicing time, as the necessity of servicing the car was there much before the possibility of watching ads to reduce servicing time was added to the game.

Service time is originally a way of FM "gently" say: "You've reached your free play limit, if you want to keep playing with this car, you'll have to pay for it". Now they are saying: "... someone will have to pay for it, you or some of the sponsors".
