From their FAQs:
When I log in, I see a countdown timer before I am able to log in. Why do you annoy me?
While a free site, Gixen still depends on Mirror subscriptions in order to continue functioning. Pricing of Gixen Mirror subscription has deliberately been set low to be a bargain with everything that it offers: increased reliability and additional features. Countdown timer is a slight annoyance that allows us to fight advertisement and plea blindness. It raises our revenue. If you subscribe, you will no longer see it and you will help Gixen back. If you don't, please understand why this is needed.
