    @netpotion,

    The admin notice that was shown was a ‘recommendation’ (and not force usage) to make better use of Email Subscribers. Additionally, the notice was of another free plugin of WordPress (which was also our plugin) and it was easily dismissible if you didn’t wanted to use the recommended plugin.

    Also, it is written clearly here – Detailed Plugin Guidelines under point 5, that

    It’s perfectly fine to attempt to upsell the user on other products and features, but a) not in an annoying manner and b) not by disabling functionality after some time period.

    and I don’t think we have violated any of the above rules.
