no, the money would go to paying off the server and eventually getting a faster one

Trickster Stats  Arcade Awards | some people are getting distracted by this whole thing of 'people paying for power'...no this is 'rewarding those who donate', there's no unfair to this in anyways, people who donate are of their own will, doesn't make them any more powerful for that matter, but because of the effort, rewarding them is an ideal thing to do |

Trickster Stats Arcade Awards MyTrade: (0) | The idea will only work if the prize is minimal. I'm not saying that those who donate arent' worth something better, or don't deserve something better, but giving out in-game items for someone who donates just wouldn't work. OR moderater powers. Again, it turns a nice community into a place where the only way to get ahead is to spend real money. We have Trickster for all that, we don't need the website turning into that too. I go to another website who reward their donators with a custom title underneath their name. Now, I think that's already something we can do without having to pay but like someone said. A star, or a change of color to their name. All of those "rewards" are harmless and don't put anybody a step ahead of the other just because they spent money.

Trickster Stats Arcade Awards MyTrade: (6) | Unless Baikin says otherwise... The "donor appreciation group" will contain members who have donated. This group will have a different color username and the members will be able to change their title regardless of post count. It's a small token of appreciation and I believe that this doesn't give them any special "powers" but still gives them the recognition they deserve. Unfortunately, I would have to create a new group for each user to customize the color for each person. Sorry, but all donors will have the same color. I'll now open this for suggestions on that color as I'm pretty much out of ideas. Color rules: 1. Must be visible on the skins we have installed for MyTrickster. 2. Must not be easily confused with an existing group (staff positions, guild leaders, VIP group, etc. You can see these colors by clicking "View Forum Leaders" at the bottom of the main forum page. Please give the hex code you wish to use. "Purple" is not accurate enough as there are countless shades of purple. Example:
On that note, I nominate that color for use (slightly darker), Gold Usernames (CC8000) Last edited by NoeJeko : 12 Sep 2007 at 01:52 PM. | |

 Trickster Stats Arcade Awards MyTrade: (11) | A couple of questions: 1. Will this usergroup have lower display priority than 'functional' usergroups, akin to how mod-ship supersedes guild leadership. 2. Will people be able to choose whether or not to be a part of the usegroup if they are eligible?

Trickster Stats Arcade Awards MyTrade: (6) | 1. Yes 2. Yes If you're a member of multiple groups you can already change this; like I could make myself display in light blue via the user CP (any user can do this if they're in multiple groups with different displays, not just staff) |

 Trickster Stats Arcade Awards MyTrade: (20) | How about instead of each donator being able to customize their own colored username, they have the option to be tossed into one of 4 different donator group (four username color options) all with the same power of custom titles regardless of post. FF33CC Pink *******'s Gold 00FF00 Green 6633CC Lavender Just a suggestion :X I can't really pick a gender nuetral color because you all know I'll pick pink >___> Appearently most girls can agree with 'male colors'. |

Trickster Stats Arcade Awards | considering making the names 'glow' as in animating slowly, that would really stand out, only if that's possible or not too much of a hassle otherwise i'm leaning towards the 'gold' color on the gold note, i think the interviewers golden name should be canceled (nothing against the interviewers ^_^), since i don't even count that as a category anymore, it's totally inactive |

Trickster Stats Arcade Awards MyTrade: (4) | Wow. I've never read this thread before. I agree any 'reward' for donators should be something minimal. Nothing like mod power, for gods' sake. 90% of us wouldn't know what to do with it. Buying into a title is never a good idea. So I do like the idea of being able to change your little subtitle despite post count. And my vote for color is: 310C5A. A nice twilight color. A question. In the past I have donated to Hidden Street, the info dump for Maple Story. Because they posted exactly how much it cost and frankly I was bowled over. That a small group of people was putting their own money, time and effort into the massive coding nightmare provided for free to all. So, I was wondering if it were kosher at all to ask how much, even a ballpark figure, it costs to run and operate mytrix on a monthy basis? I think people might be surprised.
