It says 'Fourm Rules' on the main page! It shouldn't be too hard to find on your own. You shouldn't even be posting in the first place if you haven't read the rules yet.

No... I'm pretty sure that's not a prerequisite. And even if it was, I have played on Zone before.

im sure, that you must know, as an intelligent human being, that actions speak louder than words, true he doesnt need the guns, or money but for Zone to even say something like "and thanks to sayain for submitting the following GFX's", and of course include everyone who did

As Haunter pointed out, if you look next to the Forum named "Forum Announcements", you will see the rules link, the link is also in my sig...

In reply to all this talk about someone not getting compensation for his work...seems to me that seeing your work used on Graal, and being enjoyed by the players would make a person feel really good, I know I always felt good when I made levels for N-Pulse, or other PW's, and was complimented for them...what better prize is there then people getting enjoyment from something someone made?

That's sad, I would hope soemone wouldn't stop doing something that he truly enjoys just because he doesn't get it for free

I don't see how it can be about him getting no appreciation, because he certainly has recieved alot of appreciation for them...

All of those points are moot. Stop trying.

For the players to enjoy, and because that happens to be the server he enjoys?

He gets thank yous constantly from the players, I don't understand why that isn't enough, they are the ones that use them, they are the ones they were made for (or should have been).

Why should he be treated differently because he isn't on when the events are held?
It is beginning to sound like the graphics are made for purely selfish reasons, not to benifit the server....

DrDrizzle · #89 10-29-2005, 01:33 AM

he should at least get a chance to win his own creation

and no, players don't constintly thank him. The only time i've acutally seen someone thank him, was when he told the player that he made that weapon, and the player didn't even believe him at first...

He does have a chance... He just has to show up at the right time. That is part of the chance. No?

Users thank and praise him all the time here on the forums. Christ, the guy should be dead flattered just by reading this thread alone.

he should be flattered that he will probly never have the chance to win the items, and you guys just go and say how all the gfx he worked for are not even his anymore...ya i guess he should be flattered...

He has just a good a chance as anybody does to win those items... That's fair, not offensive. Uhh... And we're telling him that his graphics belong to GraalOnline because it's the truth... Not because we're trying to insult him.

So, let me get this straight. You convince Sayian that people are out to get him and that he should stop making/submitting graphics (and even paste chatlogs wherein you are telling him to do so), you berate people for pointing out the other side of the whole fairness thing, and then declare this thread 'over'?

Wow. I bow to you, sir king of threads.

jkool666 · #96 10-29-2005, 05:34 AM

Ok myself I'll try to end this. I think this topic is about Sayian complaining about not geting the items he makes correct? Well myself if i GFX'd somthing and it got put into zone that would be reward enough. It would feel cool making somthing thats in a game (you guys are probably used to it).

Bleh, that post on his site just prooves that he didn't make the graphics for Zone, he made them for himself, and to possibly get a staff position...
That is very sad, but his choice I guess...

Bl0nkt · #98 10-29-2005, 08:14 AM

Check the agreement. Anything uploaded onto graal is graal's property. That doesn't mean you can't take the credit for it.

what? i didn't convince sayian to do anything, i told him what people were saying, and how he wasn't getting anything out of this, and he decided to stop... but then i guess he talked to u? and now he's not sure...

You might want to read your own convo with him, because you most certainly did talk him into not letting zone use his graphics, even when he said he didn't want to stop making them.
Hopefully he will see that making things for Zone itself to enjoy is better then making things for just himself...

shouldnt this thread have been closed when i solved the problem, im giving the guy the weapons i won so he continues makin gfxes.

Read the thread. Yes, all of it. I understand that there might be a lot of words there, but I think you can handle it.

if you read the long "discussions" thruought this thread, you will realise that sayain has no chance of gettin hin weapons for free.

I think the more important thing to glean from the thread is that it wouldn't be fair to the rest of the players if he received those weapons for free.

Really? So him not making them would've precluded any other graphic artist from making zone graphics in his stead? That's an interesting conjecture. On what do you base your suppositions about this alternate reality?

Splke · #**112** 11-01-2005, 08:10 PM

It sounds like he was just trying to get special items for himself, and when he didn't he called it unfair that the graphics he was making for a server (remember that part, it's important) weren't being imediately given to him.

Maybe that's how they do it on Maloria, but I don't think that is in any way fair to the players who actually PLAY the game and participate in events to WIN the items.

As far as Vulcan having the items goes, he is staff. Cut him some slack.

It shouldn't matter that he's staff, he shouldn't get them for free either. ;\ It's not like he's scripting them and needs them for testing.

Splke · #**114** 11-01-2005, 08:20 PM

No but the general notion is that staff get special treatment on Graal, or for that manner any game. Yeah it's a pretty corrupt notion, but at the same time he may at times just want to enjoy the game abit too; as long as he doesn't use like, Staff Gun of Awesomeness x 90000, it shouldn't be that intolerable.

bahamutstevetff · #**115** 11-01-2005, 09:08 PM

sayain is staff to, sayain could win the weapons easily if he was on at the events.

They can enjoy it without getting stuff for free... It's not like they're working 100% of the time they're online. Half the enjoyment comes from getting this stuff yourself anyway, if you ask me. :P

I don't really agree with it at all... Aside from debugging purposes. That's just my opinion though; so like Lance said, it's up to Stefan in the end in this case.

Sayian isn't staff, he makes GFX for the server.

Definitive based on how much time he puts into the game. You might think his logic for having these items is that he puts x amount of effort into the game, and the items are a small way of showing apreciation towards that.

Like I've said before many times in the thread, I think that the praise of others shows appreciation... besides, part of the game Graal is the fun of making your own stuff. You shouldn't need to get free items for compensation... You should be working as staff because you enjoy it.

I know what you meant... I just don't agree with the giving of free items to any degree... Aside from Debugging, like I mentioned.
