Seriously.

Every god damn time I switch characters.

Let my subscription expire just because how much those god damn pop-ups annoyed me.

I find it helpful. However I do thing we should have a option to click notifications like that off.

If it makes you happier the intention isn't to spam you.

What would be better behavior for the notifications?

Obviously that's not the intention, I wouldn't think anyone would switch characters that much.

Display the message when logging into the account only, not when switching characters.
Come back two hours earlier.

How about showing the message on the character select screen instead? No popup, just a short message above the list of characters.

You'll easily see the message so you'll know that your sub is getting close to the end, but since you won't have to interact with the message it won't be annoying.

Allow them to pay to get rid of the pop ups. Another donation of money and they go away.
