Scream Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 What I mean is If a person is a member and his primary group is say ET Member but he also donates and is VIP therefore making his secondary group vip. I suggest that if a person is in more than one group the person can see that on profile page. I suggested they should make like for example +++CSL ..so u can see member and vip in one. But it would take too much time to change for everyone or something they said, i dont rlly remember CSL's idea is better in my opinion. If you (alex) want to make couple groups visible in your nick, imagine how would it look like if somebody is in more than one secondary group? Take me for example, my primary group is Co-Leader and secondary group is Staff and Roster Team, now imagine how my nickname would look like. As for the topic, great work Dare. Quote

Take me for example, my primary group is Co-Leader and secondary group is Staff and Roster Team, now imagine how my nickname would look like. As for the topic, great work Dare. The sole reason for my suggestion is this. When I log onto my own profile I would like to see my secondary group which in this case is VIP in order to know which benefits I am entitled or not entitled to. This feature im suggesting should only be visible to the member themselves when logged in to forum and to whomever the founders think should have access such as leaders and co-leaders its a simple way to keep track of where Im at. But in response to alex's suggestion maybe it would be simpler to add a green box similar to Contributor box that shows vip status/level, kind of like a symbol of pride to those who contribute. I am not a computer expert so I have no clue how much work is involved and if its feasible at all. I would like to say again Kudos to dare and the forum team for keeping things updated and fresh the forum is truly a work of art. Quote
SuicidalManiac Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) looks great, now how much do I have to donate to have a high class hooker show up on my doorstep as the rest doesn't really matter? seriously, it's a freaking game. If FA needs donors then for f***s sake contribute if your a member or reg to keep shit afloat. All that crap posted shouldn't mean shit, I mean really, who gives a damn if you have more space to make your avatar a f***ing 12 inch giant fairy, This is a clan running several gaming servers to help dipshits play an outdated game like ET. The rest is kinda silly. Just click donate, play, kill peeps, and done. Edited March 29, 2012 by SuicidalManiac Quote

The rest is kinda silly. Just click donate, play, kill peeps, and done. Sorry, even if you donate 1 million $$ to us, we will not provide high class hooker at your doorstep since neither we are PIMP's nor we provide escort services. I guess you are on wrong website/forum then. Please Google escort services for your needs Now coming back to donation, till you where playing on our servers how much you donated so that dipshit players (as described by you) can enjoy the old game? More or less space is available so that: 1. Members can directly upload demos and proofs on forum rather then using 3rd party upload service. 2. Avatar space is same for all so I guess everyone got standard 12 inch fairy ( in your language ) 3. Donors get extra benefits... It's more of an appreciation to them for helping us in paying server and forum bills. More or less, even though ET is old game but still it has more players and servers then Brink and other new games. I wouldn't call it outdated game. Maps, mod and server binaries are being actively developed by different moders and coders. And off course if you are not using Gallery or Downloads then it doesn't mean no one is.. Their are people who are continuously downloading maps and uploading images to our gallery.. and all this add's extra BW usage on our forums which is not free. 2 Quote
SuicidalManiac Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) just saying peeps need to donate and not worry about what they get in return (outside of having a place to play). The rest is gravy. FA servers have always been cool, just need more hardcore gamers to donate on a reg basis (myself included) and not trip on extra crap outside of a great place to frag.

SuicidalManiac Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) ps. even though we haven't always agreed on shit from the beginning of FA Dare, I am on your side in thinking more members should contribute to help keep this clan and it's servers afloat. What you started has outlasted several servers/clans and members should step up to the plate to help keep things going without any other reason than to see FA prosper (no giant 12 inch avatars needed lol).

Understand your point, but there are people who look at FA as more than just a place to frag they look at it as kind of an online family. Yes its harder for us old farts that didnt grow up with the interwebz and all to understand this but for me I enjoy the contact with people from all over the world. Quote
Wifestein Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) I like the new option that also shows the other member statusses, Good job :] BTW, if I'd donate 20 dollar would that mean I'm platinum or would I have to buy platinum? Edited March 29, 2012 by Alexandra Quote
Scream Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 I wonder, can everybody check somebody else's secondary groups? Ex. Can CSL view Joker's secondary group? Or only moderators can see all of the people's groups? Quote

Buy platinum since you are on Gold VIP since a while. I wonder, can everybody check somebody else's secondary groups? Ex. Can CSL view Joker's secondary group?

rolf Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 just saying peeps need to donate and not worry about what they get in return (outside of having a place to play). The rest is gravy. FA servers have always been cool, just need more hardcore gamers to donate on a reg basis (myself included) and not trip on extra crap outside of a great place to frag. I guess most people don't care what they get in return. I only prefer the larger PMbox and add-free for the forum as additional, I guess some like the image hosting (but I use a different website for that), and so are a few other advantages that some prefer and some don't care. However, I donate because I love the server(s) and the people managing it, and I know it needs money to do so (at least keeping the servers up, I don't think FA pays salary from donations ). And, even more important, I'm happy to be able to do give that little extra help I like the new option that also shows the other member statusses, Good job :] BTW, if I'd donate 20 dollar would that mean I'm platinum or would I have to buy platinum? Ask Dare (in Client area) if adding donating the additional 20$ is good to upgrade you to platinum. Expected answer: yes, but just ask it yourself to confirm it. Then, donate the money, add paypal information to the "yes"-answer of Dare, and Dare is likely to upgrade you. Remark: He upgrades you up to date of buying gold + 1 year, which can be not that much I wonder, can everybody check somebody else's secondary groups? Ex. Can CSL view Joker's secondary group? Or only moderators can see all of the people's groups? Scream: Co-Leader Others: Roster Team, Staff Does that answer your question? Quote

Have to agree with you on that one 100%...... but I am going to ask you humbly...How much you have donated since you started playing on our servers? Their is a major difference in saying and doing it. If everyone would donate or lets say even 50% then donation bar would have reached to at least 50 to 70% but it hasn't even made to one month bill..... The fact is not everyone donate and some never donate even though they can.. don't ask me why.. that's how it is and that's how it will be. I guess this is how the world we live in Quote
