There must be something we can do to help...

PS is still in Tech Demo phases. It\'s not ready for a p/review yet, and probably won\'t be for at least another few years.

I don\'t want PS to be phenomenally huge, I say let people find it themselves, as it is no profit... the devs will not be harmed by low membership... though it\'s already pretty big for a tech demo IMO.
I for one will not advertise anywhere, I may tell some friends, but not many are into gaming.

[ForteX]

I don\'t know... There are already many annoying players around planeshift... A preview at such an early version is suicide. Anyway, I\'m confident that PS development will increase a lot after cb release, since there are, as far as I know, many developers aplications that are just waiting for cb release to be revised.
I told some friends, but they are really not interested, at least as long as it remains in MB. I guess it happens with a lot of people.

Perhaps the DEVs should be put their pride or whatever behind them and take donations if they are legitimate. Then pool that money together and use it to further development upon this game...Is it not worth doing? If people want to give you should more then openly receive..

[Icefalcon]

The Devs simply do not want money. This is not their job, it\'s their entertainment, their hobby. Why do you make model airplains? To sell them? No, to admire your own work, to feel a sence of accomplishment, to brag about perhaps. Not to make money. If you wan\'t to further the development by contributing money, send it to Sourceforge. Support our servers, because the devs don\'t want any pay.

Well to damn bad I am transfering 5 million dollars out of my Swiss bank account to turn this game into a multi-million dollar game muahahah >.>...I wish

[Icefalcon]

Heh, since the devs won\'t take it, donate it to me. Ill drop out of high school, study nothing but computer programming, buy a huge system, and work \'round the clock on Planeshift. That would be the best way...  :rolleyes:

[DepthBlade]

Or...I could take that 5 million dollars rent a military plane with a jeep in the back..weapons etc.., come pick you up, fly back over to say...mmm..*ponders* India and drop down on their leader and take over the country and further more take over the world within a world record of 26 minutes ^^

Or what you said hehe, or what I originally planned about donating money to the DEVs like come on treat yourself to some drinks while marveling over your work(entertainment)

[Moogie]

The reason devs don\'t already take donations is that they don\'t need donations, and if they had any, they wouldn\'t even know what to do with it (there\'s a quote from Venge saying that somewhere).

**sniffs** When I said that my post got deleted.  Not that I\'m pointing any fingers.

Anyway I think the best thing we non-devs/non-mods/non-worthwhile people can do is t;ry not to kill each other and brush up on our C++ and crystal space while the devs work on CB.    So everyone, PLEASE stop talking about donations, or commercial distros, or, or, ANYTHING of the sort. >.<

[Taldor]

If you really  want to donate, you can always give some money to the crystal space engine (it\'s the engine Planeshift uses). Crystal space website

Done.

Although, I\'m not Moogie...
