How to Disable PINION'S ADS on Garry's Mod #11

Use the instructions here to get started with editing your windows '/etc/hosts' file. This file will let you route connections away from pinion's ridiculously stupid and morally deprived ad network:

http://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-7/windows-7-hosts-file/

The routes you'll want to ad are as follows:

127.0.0.1 motd.pinion.gg 127.0.0.1 motdgd.com 127.0.0.1 www.ptp22.com 127.0.0.1 ads.elitepowered.com

Alexander Corn -- DON'T mistreat your customers. The people on your servers are as much deserving of respect, as the business partners you are scamming into believing that 11-year olds playing Garry's mod actually want to see ads for Baby Diapers.

Original Complaint:

I've actually seen advertisements for Baby Diapers while playing Garry's Mod

Alexander Corn: "Seems like it's targeted pretty well."

Well Alex -- WHAT targeting!? Are you routing all information about the client and the viewer to /dev/null ? You're that selfish that THIS is how you want to leave your mark in the world?

Make something good, or Fuck Off!

^^ Says the spammer with the giant link to sign up for pinion on the summary page.

Yes -- you've totally removed yourself from the ethical considerations posed by your actions here Alex.
