Who gives a shit what it looks like at this point? If people have complaints it should be about content rather than appearance. It's still a brand new site and cosmetics can come later.

'Prettying up' a website with nice fonts and images is nothing.  Figuring out how to connect it up with multiple cRPG servers to collect and record various statistics - that's the real work.  Good job:)

Now then, I forgot.. what's the date when you are releasing the cRPG-NA-only-version and finally freeing us from the tyranny of the Donkey King?

Oh, err, secret plans, must.. delete.. post..

It's good to know that expressing an honest negative opinion gets you muted around these parts.

My free speech backbone.  Never mind, these are European boards, they have no concept of freedom of speech.

Correction: Being a complete and utter jackass gets you muted around most of the internet. Welcome to life. There is a difference between an "honest negative opinion" and hurling insults and putting words in other people's mouths.

I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

+1 for posting an example of a proper "honest negative opinion."

Is there really a problem with someone telling you that something is wrong and that there may be a way to fix it? This really shouldn't be an issue, the website was clearly thrown out over the course of a few weeks, and this is proven by the lack of features. If you had really taken a few months to sit down and do this, would it really only have stats for players and server statuses? Why don't you stop lying to yourselves and admit it; the website is not as good as you said it would be, nor is it good enough to live up to the standards set by the main cRPG website.

Thanks, Ecko and friends. I don't really give a shit what the site looks like, but I'm sure it will eventually be improved anyways.

How long until he needs you to donate money to get more features? Did you know that he is already planning on making you pay to see every single stat? This website isn't something coming from the bottom of his heart, it's coming from the bottom of other people's wallets. He isn't a community manager, he is a businessman.

Dasty works on the website a little bit everyday. It's up, that doesn't mean it is finished.
"..would it really only have stats for players and server statuses?" What do you want? Flash games? Streaming porn? As for the standards set by the main cRPG site....all I can say is.... wat?

This website isn't something coming from the bottom of his heart, it's coming from the bottom of other people's wallets. He isn't a community manager, he is a businessman.
Where'd you hear that? Pay to see every single stat? That, my friend, is absurd.... He's going to make you pay for every letter in your character's/alts' names.

On a serious note (concerning donating), what person who runs a handful of server wouldn't try to get people to donate? The servers don't run on sunshine and smiles (though we would have none because of you people). The website is a nice little gimmick for NA players to track their stats....you guys want it to wipe your ass when you take a shit and fan your face while it feeds you grapes?


This is why we can't have nice things!

That was just some brainstorming to figure out incentives to get people to donate, but as far as "premium" content plans, they're not going to work on anything like that until they get all the basics that they want added and polished. "Premium" (horrible word to describe it, this is not LLJK monthly membership, mmkay?) content is something we might see far down the road, but don't expect anything like that soon, maybe never.

Was still brainstorming what would be a good idea or not. chadz does a lottery for a +1 heirloom point every Saturday, so i was thinking of doing something web based, not game items.

One of the ideas was donating (price not determined but probably no more than 5 dollars) to hide your alternate characters on the player stats.

Also since the recorded stats do not reset when you retire, we wanted to make a function where players can reset the counter manually. I think what we decided was to make it available 1 time free each month, then if you continue to want to reset you'll have to donate 3 dollars minimum for 3 more times.

Then the next package i was thinking of, was highlighting stats and creating a donation only server. Still brainstorming about that.


I know many of you don't like the idea of donating for these options. But if i can come up with some simple ways to pay for the servers with things that arn't game changing. I'm gonna do it and keep it modest.

Sorry if keeping the servers running for almost a year with less than 200 dollars total of public donation is considered business like. I believe that we've paid 1800 dollars total for the most popular NA servers....how much have you contributed to keep things going?

Going to be making a media section on the www.nacrpg.net site. The page will contain two sections:

  • Official CRPG Mod Videos
  • Clan Videos

The Official CRPG Mod Videos will contain quality videos or trailers of the mod that isn't player or guild specific.

The Clan Videos section will have every single banner from the banner list. When clicking a banner, it will list every guild who uses said banner. You will be able to click the guild and view any videos they wish to upload.

I ask anyone and every to post a link to their video here. Thank you.
