Your opinion is your own of course but I think the large majority of server admins will disagree with you. If players cant be arsed to see a message on connect for a few seconds then tbh they will go play else where. If they like the server the quality etc they will read / wait for the message. Servers cost money in hardware and in bandwidth its a small price to pay to see a banner at the beginning.

Forcing people to watch some banner/motd whatever, is just plain bad.
There are other more usefull ways of getting you rules and advertisments across - forcing people is always a stupid thing.....
