That is exactly my point, you want to bash and complain but you are not willing to submit work as a hobby as these other players who love Era and became staff to contribute.

You sure you're on the right subforum? This isn't Era.

Idea: Since the staff team/community had previously asked in the past on what we'd like to see added as a VIP benefit, I think being able to get refunded tokens amounting 65-75% of its' original uploading price would be nice. There is currently no benefits to being VIP other than having 100+ colors(and an island that is not used other than the addition of the monthly recolored morphs/mounts) so I don't think it should be a problem as VIP members do pay 7500 gralats monthly.  

Would highly advise for people to block that guy, he's been spamming and trolling/lying in this thread for pages and mods don't seem to care  

I was asking how it works I’ve been too scared to try it yet

And I don’t want piles of tokens either, just one shiney token per upload type (and each with its own unique token would be cool)

I played classic about 14 years ago. That doesn't count? This upload token change happened on multiple servers and it is the same change so it will have the same questions and same answers.

It currently works the same as gralats did. When you refund your upload though you will get upload tokens and they will be used before the gralats the next time you purchase an upload.

If you haven't played the game in over a decade, you really shouldn't be telling the people who do play how the game is supposed to work.

I am only explaining how it does work. Not how it is supposed to work. MD explained how it is supposed to work.

I have thought about contributing more time in classic. I showed up for the easter egg hunt xD  

If anything, I haven't seen you explained a single thing on this thread. I've just noticed that you've been going off for the last few pages repeating the same "information", which wasn't even anything in regards to why the upload system was actually implemented, nor was it ever confirmed by any of the current staff members working on the servers. Nothing you said correlated to the topic itself, and you've just been giving false information as the others have mentioned. In post #28 and again in post #31, you stated that the upload system was an exploit because it gives you a lot of gralats, which has been confirmed in different posts by different members of the community to be due to another reasoning. I'm not sure if you, yourself understand the whole "upload token" concept. As what you also mentioned in post #58, if aren't going to input in ideas to improve the current token system, please refrain from posting false information as some of us actually do come on the forum to read ideas/opinions of other members in the community.

I also don't like the idea of the new concept but it is what it is. It doesn't change anything for me in the game and if anything, it just gives me more of a reasoning to upload in the future if I have tokens leftover but I would still like them to implement the VIP system along with the token system in the future.

I explained that there was an exploit. There is nothing I can do if that explanation is not good enough.

Except MD explained it earlier, can you please stop trying to get this thread closed.

I am not going off-topic talking about VIP.

Yeah, he already explained the exploit. The thread should probably be closed because it cannot be explained further than that though. A lot of people are trying to claim that there was nothing wrong with the upload system but that is not accurate and that is why it was changed.

You are right though, this is getting pretty redundant. I probably won't comment in this thread anymore since there is nothing more I can add.

Contradicting yourself much? Suggesting VIP benefits being added to the new token system is not going offtopic lol. It's an idea that I contributed since you mentioned in post #58 about no support/ideas. The upload system was fine the way it was for the last 7 or so years. If the staff team wants to keep their current token system, then good for them. Most games go through changes anyways.

The upload token system doesn't rip anyone off because if you purchase your head upload and after you wear it for a while and you get tired of it, instead of spending 20k again for a new head, you have the option to sell the current head so you only need to pay 10k for the head.

Most games do not even offer a custom upload system. I have seen you continue claim it is all about the money. If it was really about getting more people to spend more dollars than the uploads would cost dollars rather than gralats.

That is exactly my point, you want to bash and complain but you are not willing to submit work as a hobby as these other players who love Era and became staff to contribute.

Here you are saying that it is a moneygrab, but you are only willing to contribute if you get paid. What a contradiction.

Nice ad hominem argument, era noob.

No the idea I had was more so...

> I buy a head upload for 20k.
> I wear it for a while
> I refund it and get ONE head upload token.
> Later I cash that in for ONE head upload.

More or less, if you pay for one upload you then have space for one upload at all times, trading it in for another one if you like, with the token as a place holder.

We are on the same page then

I’d even be willing to make a token for each upload type
