+                This hides the button that appears on the YouTube player to submit sponsors. I can see this being annoying for some 
+                people. Instead of using the button there, this popup can be used to submit sponsors. To hide the notice that appears, 
+                use the button that appears on the notice saying "Don't show this again". You can always enable these settings again 
+                later.

+                This feature tracks which sponsors you have skipped to let users know how much their submission has helped others and
+                used as a metric along with upvotes to ensure that spam doesn't get into the database. The extension sends a message
+                to the server each time you skip a sponsor. Hopefully most people don't change this setting so that the view numbers
+                are accurate. :)
