Premium ads window to be removed

Well, it's not a big issue, it won't ruin my life (just lower my good experiences with Regnum a bit), but since it's already beeing discussed I'll share my thoughts:

In my experience most other software with similar pop-ups have a checkbox to disable the pop-up, i.e. "[x] Display this message on launch". So, according to this "convetion" there should be such a box. Also, I don't think anything should be forced upon anyone, hence a freedom of choice - a checkbox.

But then again: I'm used to the philosophy of many free software programs, where customization and the "if you don't want to be disturbed, you should not have to so I'll stay out of your way"-approach are important features. This might not be the primary concern for a company that develops proprietary software with the intention of a good profit, so my thoughts might just as well be ignored
