Takeoff Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 I cant tell if youre trolling with me or if youre serious... I'm being serious..look at dreamscripts and remember dashboard's old campaign? If you really want to get the most out of your scripts, you can't just expect to sell them - especially with OSbot's struggling user base, without putting some sort of effort into promoting them.

If you really want to get the most out of your scripts, you can't just expect to sell them - especially with OSbot's struggling user base, without putting some sort of effort into promoting them. Even the current best selling scripts make peanuts compared to last year. The reason why sales are low is because of the current market model: One time fees + slow growth of potential customers = market dries up. (OSBot is very aware of this, it's why ranks such as VIP have recurrent fees). The only thing you can do as a scripter is to create a script no-one has bought yet. Good luck with that. OSBot should have stuck with the obligatory monthly fee system, it was fair to both script providers and consumers. Edited March 23, 2015 by Botre

OSBot should have stuck with the obligatory monthly fee system, it was fair to both script providers and consumers. Sure the model may not be the best for keeping a cyclical market, but for the customers that already exist, advertising is how to attract them. His signature is a good start though. But that is a good point for the non existing recurrent payments, less money over time - for both scripters & devs. I wonder why they changed the system, considering scripts usually require some form of upkeep, no matter how small. There was probably more people canceling payments before the next month, or being turned off from buying, assuming there was no way to stop monthly payments. It would seem fair to maybe lower the initial cost, and make monthly payments mandatory, but if the above is a reason for stopping it, then I guess it makes sense to do lifetime with a higher initial cost vs lower monthly cost. edit; imo that's not the only way to make money off scripts. You could make a script better than an existing one, and those who need it may feel obliged to buy it. I've done this many times. Edited March 23, 2015 by Takeoff
