Well, that's assuming every player would pay. Many of the less devoted ones wouldn't.

What I was trying to get across was that if he cant afford to donate or he doesnt want to, than thats his decision. Nothing in the game NOW would change, it would be future updates.

Well then work more, I'm not sure what kind of job you work 1 day a week in.

Any way as hes trying to say you will pay on a completely volunteer basis, you don't have to but there are benefits for those who do.

In the case that you ABSOLUTELY cannot pay, we could set up a method of submitting your name and what you have done for the community, like released maps or high res textures or anything like that, the pay members could then vote on whether or not you deserve an account.

Hahahaha I'm pn Da DP Welfare I'm on Da DP Welfare N can't uh ford it... I never got an allowance either as a child, been on my own since age 15, lived the streets, had lotsa jobs, been sucessful, married twice and of course I am as broke now as I was then raising my 3 kids by myself. Umm maybe Jits will accept food stamps? Heh

KnacK · « **Reply #111 on:** October 13, 2006, 06:59:24 AM »

Most of the DP players are under the age of 21. Most are still under 18. The problem with that is most at that age do not have the means to pay.

PiCaSSo · « **Reply #112 on:** October 13, 2006, 07:59:25 AM »

True by age but they have no problem coming up with PS2s, Xboxs, Xbox360s, Ipods and money to buy the games to play on them.

Oh my bad.. that is what old people like you and I are for...

Mom!!! Can I borrow $20??? .... Daaaaaaad!!!???

Zorchenhimer · « **Reply #113 on:** October 13, 2006, 08:18:18 AM »

but that would not work on those who are dirt poor... like me...

PiCaSSo · « **Reply #114 on:** October 13, 2006, 08:30:19 AM »

Again your choice not to buy just like it's your choice not to buy a DP T-Shirt... I'm dirt poor as well and it's not like I can really afford to throw money out for any game but if I want the added benefits then it's worth it to me to pay for the security a personal login will bring along with all the other possible future benefits that are being discussed.

coLa · « **Reply #115 on:** October 13, 2006, 09:14:04 AM »

i think this is bullexcrement because the login was gonna be offered to everybody before all this even started...

PiCaSSo · « **Reply #116 on:** October 13, 2006, 10:01:47 AM »

It may still... Goodness so testy... This is a discussion about a proposed fee. No one said a fee is actually going to be charged. Calm down!

Zorchenhimer · « **Reply #117 on:** October 13, 2006, 11:05:13 AM »

i have an idea. what if you put advertisements inside the game. but let me explain. in maps like ub_rooftop there are billboards and such, what if you where to sell "billboard space" to some companies. then have these maps be played on official servers, and when ever a match begins on a map the companies with "billboard space" in the map would pay like $5. that way the players wouldnt have to pay anything, and jitspoe would still get his money.

Matze · « **Reply #118 on:** October 13, 2006, 11:07:26 AM »

Nice idea but they won't do it.

Eiii · « **Reply #119 on:** October 13, 2006, 11:20:10 AM »

Who would want to advertise with us?
