Unlike Project Entropia, PS is completely free and will, hopefully, stay that way throughout its development. :)

Post by: Kiva on October 08, 2003, 02:16:06 pm: Let me correct Moggy\'s spelling mistake.

*Ahem* : It WILL be free, forever. :D

You, for one, should know that, Moggy. :P We\'ve been told this over and over by countless development people, whereas some are still on the team, but others have disappeared in mysterious ways.

Post by: Moogie on October 08, 2003, 02:18:33 pm: Never believe what anyone on the web tells you. Ever.

It will stay free HOPEFULLY :P

Post by: Kiva on October 08, 2003, 02:22:01 pm: Oh this is not good. Moggy is saying that the development people are not to be trusted? I must go and tell Venge this! Or maybe not... After all, it is true. :D

Post by: Niber on October 08, 2003, 06:41:23 pm: Seems that Vengeance words take affect on Moogie. 8)

I would say it\'s 99% likely that it will be free. Only a fool can say 100%.

Post by: Moogie on October 08, 2003, 07:32:29 pm: I listen to the wise. :P

Although I guess it would certainly be free for as long as we have all the nice sponsor people. Yay for sponsor people! Yay for kitties!

oh yes... you have a point... :P

Post by: shadowmancer on October 09, 2003, 12:58:19 am: Don\'t most devilish blood sacrifices involve burning something?
And if Planeshift ever stops being free, I will get mad and do some sort of massive denial of service attack on the site and quit forever.
EDIT: Blood sacrifices suck. Doesn\'t surprise me that the Cabal would do them. OK, maybe it does. Whatever. Oh yeah... \"We\" can\'t mean the Cabal, can it? Or else AOman wouldn\'t be posting... Unless he\'s a secret member.

Post by: sekhmet on October 09, 2003, 01:00:38 pm: Theirs always the possibility that PS would becomes commercial since all of the artwork is under different licences than the GPL.
Altough I think this will be unlikely, they can always get money from sponsers and advertisement on PS website once PS has gone gold.

Post by: Kiva on October 09, 2003, 01:14:13 pm: I don\'t understand why they would need money? The developers work for free, in their spare time, and the servers are given to the team for free, so what would they need money for? Oh yea, money is nice, but if there\'s no need for it... bah, I\'ll just be quiet.

Post by: Djaggernaut on October 09, 2003, 02:08:58 pm: eeh, and how will I pay my new Ferrari, hmm??? :rolleyes:

Well, yeah people, PS will be free, because in this world of corruption and desolation (what?? it\'s true.. :)) there are people who believe in helping a VERY NICE community and make something great together.

The money we earn is YOU, it\'s every single little message of people liking the game, every encouragment... :rolleyes:

Of course having money could be cool for that, because don\'t think it\'s all that funny, in all dep there are some extremely BORING task!
That\'s why I really hope the community will stay like that: nice and friendly, because all the hours spent on PS will not be useless.

Post by: Kiva on October 09, 2003, 02:35:01 pm: Honestly, Djagg, I\'d rather want the cash, but there are, of course, people who have diffrent needs than others... :D
