I can't somehow agree with this idea but you should watch out that people can't say "Oh well, dad, they forced me to pay" if you are going to do this. Otherwise you'll get many problems.

If i were jitspoe i would of charged money for a global login name even 5 bucks a player... i think ive seen registered user number 5000? thats $25000.. then again who knows how many people would still register. I dont think paying to cheat it too cool though. How about they serve there time then to activate there accounts again its money? I bet that will keep some people from cheating.

No offense but....this is a terrible idea. Isn't that getting away from what made this game so great? The fact that you could play for free and enjoy it? ...

that applies very well to what you just said.

I like this idea allot better than the other one you had. Or rather, your co-workers had.

Haha, I remember that.

fyre, that was aimed at clipz. what you said before didn't make much sense, but it applied very well to clipz's post.

i agree, this sounds like a good way to keep the servers up longer.
but $0.50 USD/day is a little low, maybe $1.00 USD/day to make it a little more costly to show the person next time dont get banned for dont cheat, period.

Don't know if this was mentioned or not but if a person pays there ban off and then hacks again double the amount.

Using Termin8or's figures:

$1.00 - First Time
$2.00 - Second Time
Third Time - $4.00 or Global Ban but if they want to continue to pay then let them hack and pay more money.
Next would be $8.00 and then so on and so forth.

What about this way:

First time you get caught: 32 + the possibility to pay off the ban time ; 0,5 $ for each day.
Second time you get caught:64 + the possibility to pay off the ban time ; 1 $ for each day.
Third time you get caught: Perm ban / the possibility to pay off the ban;If you don't pay,you'll never play again.If you want to go on playing pb then pay 20 - 30 $
Well,nobody would ever pay so much for dp.Especially the fine for the third time is high but that's the best way to keep cheaters away from this game.

So the price of a 4-month old commercial game ($30), in exchange for a free game with a community that will exile me?
Too much.

I like the idea it would bring in money for the community but I wouldn't let perm bans be paid off.

webhead · « **Reply #55 on:** June 24, 2007, 04:51:50 PM »

sure, i wouldn't either. kinda takes the permanent out of permanent, doesn't it?

I think the original prices are just fine, anything higher gets to be unreasonably high, especially with DP's main age group.

Agreed.

The ban time doubles with each offense, so the price effectively would, too.

Sounds like most people think it's a reasonable idea, so I'll go ahead and go through with it.
