Referral Idea

Mykel · #1 11-05-2005, 10:05 AM

I think that it would be a neat idea if graal online had a referral system. When someone signs up for an account, if they use your account name as a referral, you get something like 1 month of VIP added.

I thought of this idea after talking to Eagle about how in just one day 3 people upgraded their accounts to work on Versus, and we were gloating in how much money we made Graal Online.

Oh yeah! End of Ages made Graal a crapload off of account upgrades. Certain playerworlds will do that. I agree with you on your idea as well.

I think Graal should provide more deals and specials on account upgrades. The referrals are a nice idea.

There should be specials like upgrade for 3 months and get a friend a 2 weeks gold time for a special price that is offered seasonal like around christmas. Or buy 1 year gold and get a second account upgraded to classic. Just some examples.

Something that would be offered rarely and people will jump to take advantage of the offer before it runs out.

I agree with the idea, do it for certain special occasions of the year.

It will get more money!

Not a bad idea

It would probably get more people to buy an account

You mean when someone upgrades an account?

Gold, not VIP.
VIP = guild abuse.

I remember some kind of referral system was in place at least a year ago, if not before then. What happened to it?

Velox Cruentus · #8 11-05-2005, 05:31 PM

There is one.

Check graal.net.

Spanky upgraded to be staff on Versus as well.

That makes:
Me, Arsenik, Spanky, Jerry, Firedemon, and MoritzStaub.

6 accounts. Plus the $59 for the 6 months for the server. That's over $200 in less than a week solely because of one server. A referral system would be nice.

People might actually tell their friends too, omgosh!

Graal would become main stream; then you'd have the 'oldbie elite' people who spit on all the new kids and talked about how cool the old days were..

Good point.

Emo kids are stupid. Purposely not conforming is indeed a form of conforming. I think. It's a paradox of conformity.

Unixmad actually said he has a referall system in place and ready to go. They just had to decide what reward to give and to announce it to the community. However I know he was leaning more towards something along the lines of referally points, and then you can buy certain things with certain amount of points, such as GK items or additional account time.

If there was a special upgrade package with a referral system in place to get some trials to up to classic then I would consider upgrading a few times to get some old friends back playing again, even if the upgrade package was for a few dollars more than what it is now.

petro1212 · #22 11-09-2005, 02:13 PM

.. so i'd get my retard friends to buy an account... and i'd get something out of it. I actualy used to do that on *thinks* there.com and i'd get ingame cash.

But yeah this should be implemented.. would kick ass

(Anyhow emo's aren't stupid.. i'm emo on sundays.. ganster on mondays.. other white meat on thuesdays.. semi terrorist on wensdays and just myself on the other days. Damn y'all for putting stamps on people :O!)
