You can cut down on 99.99% percent of venue ads by simply not hanging out around the Aetheryte in one of the three main starter cities. If you're meeting up with friends to go talk to them, then just...meet literally anywhere else? And if you're looking to mingle with strangers in a more public place, well, you may just have to put up with some ads or use some term filters.

It's just kind of a non-issue to me because there's so many ways to avoid it.
