Botre Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Hence the fact that you still have renewal fees? Forcing renewal fees without discussing the idea with the consumers first wasn't a smart move either. To a provider monthly fees are an attractive idea, not so attractive from a consumer point of view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not gonna' make anymore money by clinging to osbot1, you'll just slow down progression. Having only 1 client is a good thing, it means all the devs should only have one real focus now which is OSB2.

They've got the option whether or not to renew and us the new client... so the choice is still their's. Edited May 31, 2014 by Deffiliate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Botre Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 How about more money from sales and your reputation as a scripter? OR is that not enough? Some scripts have reached 99% of their target market and are getting like one sale per week anymore, there's no financial incentive there. Reputation doesn't matter much unless you are offering a product that's in demand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reputation doesn't matter much unless you are offering a product that's in demand. I highly doubt ANY script has reached 99% of their potential user-base. Believe it or not, more and more people join this community daily. That means new potential customers. Anyways if you want to cry and not update to OSBot 2 feel free to do so, and i'll enjoy your slice of the money-making pie 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiji Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Thanks for the update & release. RS botting is finally venturing into the territory comparable to higher end, intensive games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't our decision to create a completely new bot. It's silly to tell scripters that they now have to rewrite their scripts for free just because they wanted to write something completely new.

It's silly to tell scripters that they now have to rewrite their scripts for free just because they wanted to write something completely new. It's slowing down progression because they spent alot of fucking time working on this new client for US to program on and utilize, and debating or cryign about converting is only delaying the inevitable. OSbot2 is the future, now either help w/ it or GTFO. I wasn't happy about it before either, but it's here now. Also, you can't complain about having to re-write your scripts. OSBot provided a platform and API for you to script on. If you want to continue using their API and client to code on then you have to update along with them. It's not even a big deal to port a script. The amount of money involved in scripting is dwindling day by day lol. This I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means new potential customers. Bullshit, the amount of new users isn't great enough to maintain a stable number of sales for any script. A market reset would have been beneficial to all of us. Their alternative solution seems to be renewal fees, I'm very skeptical about this solution (even though it could be a better one longterm-wise, we'll just have to see how the consumers will react to it) Anyways if you want to cry and not update to OSBot 2 feel free to do so, and i'll enjoy your slice of the money-making pie I have ported 2 out of my 3 scripts that are currently on the store and have 3 originals ready to go. I'm not lazy nor am I crying, please. I have been scripting exclusively for OSBot 2 for like 2 or 3 weeks now. All I'm saying is that they could have used this "Great transition" much more greatly and strategically.

I don't think that using this transition as a way to re-sell our current scripts as a whole new product is great n'or strategic. I think that idea is quite selfish and money-whorish TBH. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that idea is quite selfish and money-whorish TBH. Considering most of them will actually become whole new products (new API, new quality standards for the SDN, entire rewrites for some scripts, new features) it seems fair our time invested would be compensated in some way, their current strategy doesn't allow such compensation and I think that's a shame. Message to all script buyers: Dear script buyers, I started a poll on the thread of my premium money making script Shrooms, even if you are not a user of this script I would love to hear your opinion.

Realist Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 The amount of money involved in scripting is dwindling day by day lol. From my experience is because of how detectable the client is, makes people like me not want to invest in scripts anymore 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denoxum Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 "There is no reservations for certain scripts (i.e. AIO fighters, merchers, etc.). It's a free-for-all. Only the best scripts will be accepted for premium sales. Additionally, any script which is to be sold on the OSBot 2 SDN/Store will have to meet certain standards of quality and reliability." If I understood correctly, I have the right to release a Staker script in this case? I find this to be a fair rule as it allows everyone to have an equal chance of succeeding. Thank you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apaec Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Not sure what the need is for a new api/bot, imo woulda just been better and easier for all to update the current bot. either way, we'll see what happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
