What is Azrael's hat contest?  

Posted by zenTurtle

I'm in the Initiative and I completely disagree with this.
MattKan has set a valid argument with this, there's Azrael's hat contest, that's open for the public.
If you want more competitions open to the public just feedback it or use the forums, protesting for a great creation to be shut down isn't going to do anything.

'Great creation' You serious?  

you guys srsly my ****in brain explode  

As there are different levels of artists in the guild, one of the main purposes is to help everyone improve, which is why we take almost everyone. If you feel under pressure with a month to make a few graphics, that's another problem in itself, because that is PLENTY of time. On the other hand if you "don't do guilds" because you're too cool or popular or whatever, that's not something to take up with anyone but yourself. Unless you have a very clear understand of what this guild system is, try not to rage against it.

yes, its our fault the system is made so you need to join a guild to participate in a contest.[/sarcasm]

whatever, ill just figure out how to get the contests made public, at the very least ill just make a thread for every contest for players to submit their art. the mueseum is for everyones artwork, not just a guild family.  

I think it might be because they don't want to be flooded with loads of entrys. Also maybe they think that if you bother to get into the guild you obviously care that little bit more about GFX.

Read my big post.

BY THE WAY, you're in a very, eh, hypothetical position right now considering you are working on releasing content with Xor, a privilege many of the staff don't even have. So, like, be thankful for what you have, and don't mull over what you don't have.

You do that and tell me how it turns out.  

When I sent a few hats of to Ariq for H&S (she said she might use or get someone to upload) She thought the hats I did was 'awesome ^_^' but nothing came of it so I asked few months later If she could forward my hats to furry as my laptop broke... she said she would forward them, but when i asked few days after if she had forwarded them I got the response that I could only get my hats in game if I was in a staff guild.Quite unfair and selective :/ Ohwell my laptops still broke so no more making graphics for awhile

No offense, but admins have a little bit more important things to do than forward your hats to someone. I GUARANTEE that if you asked her MONTHS later, she didn't even have your hats anymore, so why even bother to ask?

Besides, your graphics have to be God tear if an admin is going to back them for Hide and Seek.

Pfft. I'm just a player. I'm sure any staff members that had cool ideas and could make the graphics could talk to XOR about their project and get it approved. Think of it this way, if I could do it with my past, any player that tries hard enough can help the server.

Cause' she said she would forward them.Also she remembered them and did still have. Backtotopic
The point is that you/anyone should not HAVE to be in a staff guild just to have there hats/furniture allowed onto game. I think they should make a furniture and hats etc upload bit on where you upload heads and bodys but for the furniture and hats it would be able to be viewed by staff and if they see any they like they could use ingame to put in shop.

It's not hard to join the guild and you don't need to wear tag 24/7. I fail to see where the problem is...  

I think the Initiative family is nothing but a good addition to Classic. They show us at their museum some awesome pieces of art and they produce many good Graphic Designers. What i believe would be idealistic is the creation of a new room in the museum where the public can show their stuff. What do you guys think?

If you read first post you would know my Pc/Laptop broke and still broke... the point is that players shouldn't have to be in or have tag of an Admin Art guild to get stuff they made to get ongame so thats like 25players + allies... Theres more than 1100players+ on server at most times. so the problem is most actually don't get the chance unless selective chosen to join guild.may not be hard to join the guilds but not the point, they shouldn't just allow theres guilds only to get stuff they made on game.
