ZEL 349 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 @Bibs hunger games club when Can't lie, I'm glad as all hell to see exp die. It was a broken system and I was long wondering if you'd ever agree on anything to finally deliver the promise of tying showdown and discord participation into it at all. But yeah I'm actually excited for the possibilities of clubs. Interested to see how things will turn out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alistair 705 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 EXP and Ace status were both in great need of getting axed. Coincidentally, I was thinking of suggesting the suppression of both lately. Good call, Ame. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Administrators Amethyst 2466 Posted October 31, 2017 Author Administrators Share Posted October 31, 2017 Quote Ok, so what about showdown custom sprites? This was original an option everyone could have with paying rupees (the old currency of the forum). Then it became an ace member perk only and now getting ace can't be acomplished anymore. Will everyone can get a custom sprite if they want? Maybe some, and who? And what about those who paid with the old currency and lost their custom sprite (or never got it cause in the last period of the said system the sprites were broken)? Same thing applies for voice on PS too Iirc the plan for showdown avatars is just to allow access on request to all Veteran forum users. Same for voice. There will still be a limit on frequency of updating avatars/names, of course. Quote I imagine users will be able to have joint membership across any number of clubs. Division will exist anyway, but that's usually manifested in sub-communities that have already branched off from Reborn. This is definitely true. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In the end, people didn't even use it anymore, blocking the way on any new people getting Ace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alistair 705 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 The sad thing is, the EXP system wasn't even outdated. It was barely 1 year old xD It just didn't work because people didn't bother to use it. They had little to no incentive to do so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfox 2093 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 really? I thought that it was already there since the old site. guess I was mistaken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NickCrash 250 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 The old site had rupees, and you could buy the Ace Membership for 6000 of them, provided you were part of the community for 6 months. They became almost useless after the "Mess With Others" part of the site shop was removed, so too many people became Ace at the same time. Therefore they had to come up with a system that limits that. Then the EXP one happened resulting in no new Ace members. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was no longer possible to use it at all, that's why it ultimately had to go.^^ Quote The biggest difference between the new and old forums is going to be the complete removal of the $R system. That kind of sucks, but unfortunately there isn't a way around it. Our currency system is part of a third party mod which is completely incompatible with new forum versions. This is also the main reason that we haven't upgraded yet, but as it is now this forum software is nearly three years outdated and its age is starting to show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NickCrash 250 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Yes. The second line refers to the added requirements to become Ace. The EXP was an attempt to imitate the rupee system on the new site. I didn't imply that they removed the Rupees in order to use the EXP one. Probably poor wording on my part.

After the EXP system was introduced, complotist me thought it was designed to not produce Aces anymore, because there were too many of them. Looks like I wasn't that far from the truth Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The idea was always tossed around that getting rep should or would earn you a bit of exp, but it was never codified and implemented, to my knowledge. Also, bring out tfw topic. that's probably the one topic that makes up the Ace board and doesn't really have anything that would be better left hidden. Hell, I might just go back and scroll through memory lane myself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Y’all literally pulled the rug up from under us on this one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tacos 205 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Trust me, it's nothing particularly bad. Just, there's an unspoken level of comfort that there is/was in the Nightclub tends to allow us to open up a little. Some of us, myself included, have things like diary threads in there. And well, I think you understand why I'd prefer to not have that be seen ya know? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alistair 705 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 I see. I can definitely understand that. I only hope this level of comfort, or something approaching, can be brought to all members with the introduction of clubs. I have no doubt they were designed with this idea in mind. Let's hope they are successful, so everyone can be part of their own little Nightclub. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
