Should P2P playerworld owners be.. paid?

[konidias]

To deatchill:

He might not have asked for it, but you can't deny the fact that if a p2p playerworld gets really popular, it's going to be bringing their company in more money.

To nastazio:

you mention 9/10 servers would be crap then.. I don't think that would be the case.. if they were crap they wouldn't be put up.. I think it would be a good idea to get a group of playerworld reviewers.. and they all review the playerworld by themself, then give it a yes or no, like a jury.. if the majority is yes, the playerworld gets in, if the majority is no, it's rejected. It would also give a better more varied opinion on a playerworld, instead of 1 or 2 people deciding it all.

Plus, people would keep non-p2p up because the requirements wouldn't be so high or something? How come so many are up right now? Way more then p2p.. I think as long as the p2p servers have to reach a certain standard, it will keep them to a limited amount. Plus you know more people DON'T have p2p accounts (judging by the amount of people on classic/other nonp2p servers) so you can get a wider audience with a nonp2p server.

Some of you are kinda putting prices in your heads it seems.. the payment could be whatever Stefan wants it to be.. even a dollar or something is better then nothing you know

Maybe a few p2p accounts but people upgrade for 2001 becuase it's the new main server so people are all excited.Not many people upgrade for PW's.

NOW.. but if pw owners got paid by the average amount of players, don't you think they would put more effort into their pw's? Half the time there is nobody on the other p2p pw's because they are all up but only like a few levels and the rest is under construction for weeks and months because the owners get unmotivated/lazy/etc.

I don't think global staff should get paid, I think global staff shouldn't exist.. staff having nothing to do with a server shouldn't have power on it. :o

It would be cool to be paid to own a playerworld but I also agree with DeathChill. And maybe Konidias thought of this because he will be owning a PW soon?

[Loriel]

I suggest Unixmad puts a poll into the account upgrading thing, "If you are upgrading your account because of a special server, select it here." or so.

[Agelaos]

no,.. but I would pay to have my playerworld

Ok so lets let graal be full of hacked accounts,unchangeable passwords,etc all thanks to no global staff!WOO!Also lets have no defined rules for staff does and don'ts without any global staff!HUZZAH!

Anywho Konidias not even PW's that have a lot of neat stuff will get people to upgrade.It's things like graal2001,2002 that get people to upgrade but people may find a home on one of the p2p ones it's not really the reason they upgraded, but any upgrading is good upgrading.

Yeah that sounds like a good idea also.

Yes this came to mind because I'm making a playerworld.. I enjoy making it, and I would love to get it up and have people enjoy playing it, but at the same time, I am devoting so much of my time to this project, and I would assume it will make more money for their company.. I would only think it fair if they think it's great enough to put online in their game, then it's good enough for them to share the wealth.

But I have a q

[JubeiSaotomeX]

i can't believe people even voted no, thats just dumb

Yea but if this idea came into play people wouldn't be making Playerworlds because they want to or because they like it...they would be making a PW simply to get paid. There would be like 100 servers on the list...

[DeathChill]

But I have a question..Why not get a real job instead of expecting to be paid from a game for making something for it when they didn't ask? ;x
Loriel's idea could work though but I don't see Stefan paying people to make PW's..Stefan could take down all the PW's and lose maybe 10-20 customers or they'd just all go to 2001.

Or we can have people like contego, and I'm sure you will be next, that make up the STUPIDEST F-ING rules for everyone to follow such as having to go through THEM to get staff fired on your server.

I don't see how some guy like you is supposed to tell me how I am to run my playerworld. You're the laziest most self-centered person I have come to know on here.. and yes, I know you kissed some major a** to get your positions.. it's obvious from the lack of any work you did on 2k1 yet someone you manage to climb up the ladder with NOTHING to show.

FOR THE LAST TIME X___X

The playerworld would have to be EXCELLENT to get accepted.. not 100 crappy unfinished playerworlds getting paid hundreds of dollars to have their staff sit online.. jesus..

You ****ing make me mad, I know him in RL he didn't kiss ass like 98% of G2k1 LAT out there. He became ART on Classc then moved do GP, like Juno said he was the best damn GP he had. So he moved to Senior Captain and James205 picked him for AM. If you have a problem with that talk to Juno or James205. You remind me of a spoiled little ****. Trying to bring this idea into play because you're making a PW. Devoting your time? haha well that's your choice for making a PW. And doesn't it cost money for Stefan to run those servers? On a european server or soemthing? Maybe it is the PW owners who should be paying Stefan.
