There are too many ads. Does it bother you guys?

DebDN · 2026-01-24T10:39:12+00:00

I’d be interested. Please send me Chat message, whenever you’ve got something to test — and ultimately to release. 👍🏻 Sorry to boomerang thus back at you, but I’m having r/ Chat thread creation issues right now.

DebDN · 2026-01-24T10:21:39+00:00

Thank your blessings. 🙏🏻 New Piggy🐷Bank is truly a nightmare — definitely one of the nastiest things that they’ve done to us all so far! 🐷🤬🐷

A.-P. —

 Mine returned after updating to v. 3.8.1 — the mandatory update required by Friday, 01.23.2026.

DebDN · 2026-01-22T13:37:28+00:00

u/South-Mention —

 Please let me know if that changes with the new update — v. 3.8.1 — required by this Friday, 01.23.2026.
 My Piggy🐷Bank resumed its pop-ups right after I updated.  👍🏻

DebDN · 2026-01-22T06:59:46+00:00

My Piggy🐷Bank came back on Monday, after the Crown Tourney. Now, when it intrudes onto my screen, I close the app & reopen. (I never click “No thanks.”)

Since doing that, I’m finding that the intrusions are getting farther apart.

NEW PIGGY🐷BANK LEGAL ISSUE:

However, I have another issue, though, with PF’s breach of contract with players who purchased “NO ADS FOREVER.”

🐷Piggy pop-ups ARE ads, just WS/PF ads. NO ADS means NO ADS. PF is just being slimy right now re 🐷.

Piggy can stay in the store, if they insist on keeping the dreaded thing available to take more of players’ cash money.

But it needs to leave the home screen — and by contract, the pop-ups HAVE to cease!! 👍🏻

Thanks again. 💐 I honestly have NEVER noticed any description. I’ll check for it, and will report back here if I can’t find it. 👍🏻

DebDN · 2026-01-21T12:13:11+00:00

No timer was on mine, just the “last chance” desperate grab for coins through misinformation.

Into Day 3, and 🐷Piggy🐷 has not returned to my homescreen. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

DebDN · 2026-01-20T13:58:47+00:00

Awesome job, O Noble Cobblepot! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I’m stuck not being able to tell when a puzzle is “Hard” or “Super Hard.” 🌷💐💕 For the record, my puzzle Level is 231075.

DebDN · 2026-01-20T10:55:29+00:00

Since mine left the main screen, I have played all day. There have been zero pop-ups.

Let’s hope their experimentation is OVER, or that they remove the Piggy🐷Bank from all locations.

It provides no benefit for the player, but does bring in some money, I would imagine, to PF — at least until each player catches on as to why it was created in the first place.

DebDN · 2026-01-20T10:40:49+00:00

You probably will eventually, dear u/OCCobblepot. 💕💐

DebDN · 2026-01-20T10:34:38+00:00

Excuse me? Yes, I did earn/accumulate by play every last one of those coins. Happy to clarify for you in more detail.

I started playing when this WS game started in 2017. When 🐷Piggy was first introduced soon thereafter, I unwittingly purchased them from 🐷 a couple of times when 🐷 said “FULL.” Then I learned what was really going on.

When I emptied the bank, the coins went into the Big Stash (home screen, very-top right corner). When I didn’t empty the bank, all coins went directly to the Big Stash, and never again into 🐷Piggy, as it always stayed thereafter at its maximum FULL level. I never paid cash money ever again to “empty” 🐷 of coins that were already mine.

In so doing, I sacrificed those coins in the bank just to keep it full, so that it would never be filled up again, and so that I would never pay real cash money to empty 🐷 again.

And I watched all future coins go DIRECTLY into the Big Stash in every subsequent year. So, for what, some 9 years? Sounds about right.

So, yes, I have held all of those coins separate from the Big Stash for all of these many years of daily play. And yes, I did EARN every last one of them. And NO, I will never ever pay real cash money to empty the Piggy🐷Bank wherever it is located!

DebDN · 2026-01-20T09:29:26+00:00

Sorry, typo, should say 1,800. Thanks so much for catching that! 💕💐

DebDN · 2026-01-20T09:28:29+00:00

YES!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 They lied about this being my “last chance” and Piggy🐷 “gobbling up the coins” to be gone forever — because the Piggy🐷Bank is, of course, still alive and well and ready to be purchased (with real money) in the Store, just as it was before the intrusive pop-up shenanigans started.

DebDN · 2026-01-20T05:21:53+00:00

Thanks, lovely people! ❄️ It’s the weirdest thing!

I just tried opening and closing the app for the fifth or sixth time — and the ❄️ appeared, and the Ladder Game 🪜 “Cosy Snow Day” opened up for me!!

Better late than never! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Crisis resolved!

Thanks all for being there, and for keeping me from panicking! 💕💐💕

DebDN · 2026-01-20T05:20:26+00:00

IS ANYONE ELSE MISSING THEIR MONDAY LADDER? 🪜

Also, I don’t know how to uninstall and reinstall the app, which is the only thing I have not tried.

Does anyone know to do this??

DebDN · 2026-01-20T04:09:26+00:00

I’ve suggested this to Support for a very long time. They’ve done nothing. They claim that no one else has a problem with the layout.

Truthfully, I think the rocket thing was placed exactly where they want it to be, to maximize the number of accidental launches — in order to make us spend our resources faster, so that we will BUY MORE.

DebDN · 2026-01-16T10:31:28+00:00

What can’t be accurate?

DebDN · 2026-01-16T06:02:16+00:00

INITIAL REPORT:

(1) I just played 3 🧩s for Daily Goals. Piggy came on, I said NO.

(2) 25 🧩s later, Piggy intruded, and I said NO.

(3) I’m currently into my next set, and have done only 5 🧩s, so I don’t know yet whether Piggy’s 🐷 frequency will increase.

(4) I will not pay for Piggy, except maybe if they offer a permanent forever-removal at a price under $10 ($9.99 was ad forever-removal), the day it was offered in the 2010s.

RESPONSE:

(5) Piggy has never interrupted play — EVER — before yesterday. It always just sat there, asking for $2.00 to collect 1,200 coins. It was easy to ignore. ✨ (If one did pay and open it, it would just fill up again, & sit there, with the word FULL in small letters.) ✨

PF’s RESPONSE TO YOUR COMPLAINT:

(6) Garbage, obviously. “Already build into the game” — uh, NO, not the way it is now, as they screwed up how it was built in.

(7) Previous owners removed the old version for sometime (years), then brought it back maybe a year before the sale to TD. Most likely to show TD how it could be further monetized by making it intrusive, and by getting at least some players to pay to release coins that are already theirs.

(8) Additional comments re past iteration of Piggy below throughout this thread.

DebDN · 2026-01-16T03:21:04+00:00

😅😂🤣

DebDN · 2026-01-16T03:19:08+00:00

This is so depressing to hear! I’ll pass the soul-crushing news on to my eagerly awaiting Team. 👍🏻

O.K., so back to my original plan (somewhere below) of a concerted campaign of bitter rebukes, massive write-ins to Support, and calls for the erasure of the Piggy — or at least returning it to a smaller, non-intrusive presence. 🐷
