Sorry but you're not gonna win this one. The pop-ups make them money. If people stopped spending because of so many pop-ups, "maybe" they'd change their mind. The bean counters instituted these pop-ups and you just have to deal with them.
I completely agree with OP. These popups are most annoying. These are offers we can find in the store, having each of them as popups all the time, endlessly repating, is disruptive to the enjoyment of the game.
Also, I could understand targeted popups. But these are all the same for each player, which makes no sense. Getting popups for every GL I already have collected, makes me exit every popup without considering the offer. Including stuff I am currently farming...

I seriously doubt there is a linear sales increase with amount of pop ups. The amout they have right now is high enough to potentially be counter productive. A few pop ups to highlight deals might get a positive response. Having to click them away every time you leave a menu is something else.

Imagine the outcry if they didn't get a "leg up" on a GL?
Except this has nothing to do with the other topic, the other topic is an issue because 2 people get completely diffrent offer for the same price. Even without the pop up you would still see tbat the pack is available when you go to sim the battles for the shards
If we are all equal shouldn't we all get the same pop-ups?..... Maybe some people would be upset if they didn't get the pop ups that other people got and ended up not knowing about the pack?....
Can you imagine the outrage when one player in a guild bought the jabba starter pack and started doing great in the raid before others because they got a head start?
Did you get the pop ups like everyone else though?.... It wouldn't be equal if you didn't....
I think you're missing the point. We have 2 shops (one in-game and one in a web site) that we have to check every day for freebies. People will see the packs lots of times a day. Why the need for a third source of advertisements, pop-ups? Are pop-ups really more effective than 2 shops, to justify interrupting the player every time they move?

If they generate enough revenue to keep the game free to play, then they are worth it to me.

I don't get pop-ups in the webstore and the freebies are always in the top left corner... I couldn't tell you what else is in there to be honest with you, I haven't looked...
As for the shop in-game, The only freebies I ever see in there are the bronziums and the monthly calendars when they are available... I never bother scrolling through all of the other stuff...
I haven't bought any of the stuff from the pop-ups but if I was someone looking to rush a GL or close to getting a GL maybe I would be interested...
Then again, If you were interested in spending to rush a gl you would probably be inclined to scroll in the store and not solely rely on whatever pop up appears on the screen

this sounds like a great solution
CG gets to advertise and for the user its in one screen and not multiple pop-ups

That's a fair point.... Luckily I don't have to, because pop-ups :)
And, maybe if I wasn't thinking of doing it before, I would start to think about it because of the pop-ups....
Maybe, or maybe you though about spending but the constant pop ups annoyed you to the point where you play a different game. Its a balancing act I guess :)
Not the biggest issue on my plate, but would be nice with some smartness in them so you don't get the pop ups for starter packs that you 7*ed years ago.
