Timekeeper Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) They claim we just want money, they don't understand a business. Strong business 101 comprehension. Every single business on this planet "just wants money" However, the idea of offering a "donation" with no inherit worth or return on investment/receiving any product for the amount is a totally different thing. However it very common use to recognize different levels of donations on many forums, but to pretend like it's part of business is slightly laughable. There is no good/service being offered for this amount. It is not a product, and to act like it is...just lol Brb asking all my customers for donations and claiming they don't understand business if they get upset with me.

tommyb0yy Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 lol it's not really a donation though, your receiving a "rank" on the forums, based on how generous you are. and really it's just used in most cases so people look more trustworthy. 3
Dreamliner Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) But you did have it in the past. Why didn't you complain about having it then? Why do you have to advertise your scripting rank? Why can't you just make scripts without wanting a rank? I advertise my scripting rank because OSBot gave it to me. They can take it, I couldn't care less about it. People buy my scripts because I write quality scripts. I don't need a rank to sell them. I didn't pay to get the pip either they pay me to wear it like a slut in skimpy clothes. I don't care about the VIP and sponsor ranks. Those aren't the issue. You buy those for unlimited tabs or as an investment for unlimited tabs. You buy thew $100 pip to show off and make people think you're trusted. That's the issue that you seem to not understand. Edited April 13, 2014 by dreamliner 1
lolmanden Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 $100 wouldn't exist btw, but it's a bit too late now.
Nazz Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 How many people are actually going to donate that much?
Nick Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 How many people are actually going to donate that much? Meh, I don't think it all has to be donated all at once. I think it's something you can accumulate your money over time through VIP / Sponsor / Script subscriptions.

Timekeeper Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 If it wasn't taken out I have no doubt there would be one by now. I planned on donating to 250 after OSBot 2 officially came out and was working correctly 1
Nick Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 @Maldesto said those are seperate and don't count as donations. I think it should be. After all, it means you've donated $250 / 500+ to OSBot. :P
Smk Chronic Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 I think that the $50 donor rank would be a nice addition to the $250 and $500 ranks. If someone buys it, it is because they wanted it.
Smart Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 I think it should be. After all, it means you've donated $250 / 500+ to OSBot. This won't be the case, considering a donation is not considered buying a product that benefits yourself. However, if the community feels as if the rank should return then this will be no problem to bring back. I would like to see more feedback before deciding which way to go about it.

What baffles me is that we have a $100 Donor rank, which is essentially the exact same thing as 250 / 500. It really doesn't bring any benefits that Sponsor / VIP don't already have.
RoomScape Posted April 16, 2014 Author Posted April 16, 2014 I think it should be. After all, it means you've donated $250 / 500+ to OSBot. :PI made a thread asking that and he said no. I said if I buy sponsor twice, will I get $100 donor? He said no. I was saddened. What baffles me is that we have a $100 Donor rank, which is essentially the exact same thing as 250 / 500. It really doesn't bring any benefits that Sponsor / VIP don't already have. Doesn't really have benefits aside from no ads...
