We don't.
Staff are all volunteers, and the server is donated. It would do you good to read the main PS website :)
Because this is not the kind of game we want to create. We want a fully free game with no fees of any kind. Money isn't necessary, though we may take donations in the future to help development.
This is our hobby, what we do in our free time, how we learn game design, our way of letting our visions take shape.
Wow, that's like the first time I've been quoted in someone's signature.
Cool!
ps. the players of runescape actually sell items, accounts and money on e-bay and make lots of money doing it........ plus over 70% percent of the players in runescape have never baught any rs items of e-bayBe aware that this (both selling and buying) is cheating, and that there aren't only rules forbidding that, but there will be an anti-cheat system as well. Cheating is a bannable offense.

Like some of the other mmorpg's (runescape) (habbo-hotel) Why dont you sell PS money on E-bayThat's not only illegal, but would destroy the game.
But believe me, there is nothing worse than your own future mother-in-law telling you that there is no country more east than Spain, meaning Portugal does not exist to Europeans that live more western than France... :sweatdrop: I simply do not exist... X-/
...and it will never be the quality of company produced games...
Kary is just a shortened form of Karyuu, because people are lazy blocks of sentient meat :P
Half a decade sounds like a reasonable time ;PQuote...and it will never be the quality of company produced games...
I think "never" is the wrong word to use. It's going to take us a long time to be truly comparable to commercial MMOs, but I don't think that this will be impossible.

I'm not getting married :P I have no clue what ZEN was talking about, though he was probably referring to the folks who had a conversation some posts up. Not sure why I was brought up.
and uuuuh alalabmaangyl :-[ and is that the right spelling btw ???
Let's get one thing straight here: RUNESCAPE does NOT sell their gp's online and does NOT support real-world item tradingStaff are all volunteers, and the server is donated. It would do you good to read the main PS website :)

Rule 12 - Real World Item Trading
RuneScape items must only be exchanged for other items/services within the game.

I pray PlaneShift doesn't sink to that level. Ever.
It even happens with big-time mmorpg's like ultima online, too, for that matter. Just search it up on ebay, "ultima online account". (I saw people selling rare UO items for as much as $30 - $81, and what's sadder, people actually bidding on these items!) It's very sad, and not the right way to make money at all! I'm glad this game doesn't have that sort of thing.
Well I know that I would love to make an exchange for real cash. IG I create a good reason why I sell my uber-axe to someone else (I never use them) and in return they hit my paypal account with a financial hand.
Zen,

Wow and u even put up with all of the s**t we give you in pointless posts
but I mean I have to say this is a great game with good intentions (even though I have never gone online...)
keep it up :D
HA HA have you ever tryed this... everything you just said was POINTLESS!! how?? my best friend gets like 1-10mill a month he has done this a LOT and he is not banned (i actually do think its sad but HECK they are really rich)
So in a sense it is actually illegal, ThomPhoenix, but it depends on what country your in and their laws, as well as wether or not a game company has given expressed consent.That is exactly what I said, but in other words.

Are we talking real money ore Runescape money? 1,000,000,000-10,000,000,000 a month is a little far fetched. I may believe that he could get tens of thousands or more, but millions? Where was I during the boom :'(
Zen is talking about in-game money, I assume... but it's still farfetched... Runescape simply doesn't allow that sort of thing now. Not since the crackdown some months ago, anway. They have, if you would read their site, programs put into place to catch such activity. If your friend hasn't been banned yet, they are probably watching him to find out who is selling him the items/cash for real world money.well hope you get well and your post did make sence, :thumbup:
Shadow Hea is right. 99% of rs players, and players in general for that matter, do not cheat by buying items/money with realworld money. It's clear that some of us cannot agree on this subject, however... my opinion is that anyone who does so, really doesn't want to play the game in the spirit in which it was created.
In the end, it's a game, and more importantly, games are created for roleplay purposes... and for FUN! :) It's not a race to see who can get everything in the game the fastest. What would you do if you could buy your way into a game like that? There would be nothing left to do, and you would miss the satisfaction you get from earning the money for that rare item yourself.
I hope this post made sense... I'm under the infuence of nyquil and other cold meds I can't believe I'm gonna be sick for the 4th of July! :(
DO YOU PEOPLE ACTUALLY KNOW ANYTHING??? the ''crackdown'' had nothing to do with e-bay but the 5,000 players were banned because of 'MACROS' and NOT e-bay....You exaggerate very much, and in a very insulting way..... that is in my opinion a very bad idea.
Yes, Talad has actually already done work on a paypal donation account :) It should be available shortly.
