Bring Back AdService, But Make It Show Ads From The Site

As a Roblox developer, it is currently too hard to make money off my games without Premium Payouts, Game Passes, and Dev Products.

What I am suggesting is for AdService to be brought back, but it shows the player ads from the website as well as game trailers.

If Roblox is able to address this issue, it would improve my development experience because I would be able to monetize my games in a way where no one has to spend anything.

One thing to note is that standard ImageLabels, ImageButtons and VideoFrames would be inappropriate for this function since they can be moved off screen or behind another element and their aspect ratio isn’t constant. Plus it would be impossible to monetize through them.

An AdImageElement and an AdVideoElement instance would have to be added which are always on top and are no longer active when any of their corners are off-screen.

There would also have to be a limit to the number of AdImageElements and AdVideoElements to prevent spam.
