Those loopholes are rather short lived though.
By /em, they'll die trying to type.
By changing names, /ignore again.

i find that sorta offensive.. im neither an asshole or a noob and im not of"lesser inteligence.. and plus my family cant pay for toribash... so when it got free i was really happy.

The fact of the matter is; I do not want to even play or give privilege playing with the assholes who choose to troll and annoy. It's unnecessary and easily avoidable for permanent. Noone will pay $20/month to bug people. Even if they do let them, they're helping support the game we love.


And you can keep playing the way you do now. But we of the older variety want some protection from the harshness of the rest of the internets. It's possible, plausible, and down right valuable.

October 2006? Thats quite a while ago. I think that the newbs are anyone who joined after the regkey feature disappeared and the game was free. Alternatively, we could have a toribooster only set of servers. A toribooster would be a convenient way to filter out those who are not dedicated to playing the game and helping the community.

Well then anyone whos paying strictly to gain more tc would be allowed. I want people who are dedicated to the game itself. Although this WOULD bea good alternative the "regkey" feature is still in effect. Lurk your cp moar.

i dont know if you know it, but there are many non-oldschoolers who care about the game..

This is exactly the point that you guys are missing. We are getting more and more people to join the community since 3.0 came out, and while many of them are hyperactive 10 year-olds, there are just as many mature people among them. However, you guys discriminate against them because they didn't pay for the game, they can't anymore, so why do you do this? Why should people who care about the game be left out just because they started playing later than you?

That's a pretty pathetic speech, in my own (very humble) opinion. Such elitism disgusts me.

You're suggesting stratifying the server system to match with supposed intelligence? Since when did intelligence have any sort of link to money, and buying the game? While I can partially appreciate your point of view - these players do irritate me on a regular basis. But at the heart of it, Toribash - and, indeed, any of Nabi's games – is a business product. By stratifying the system in such a manner, you're not only limiting potential capital and subsequent profit, but you're also - as I stated - pandering to elitism.

Granted, with a means of creating your own servers this problem could theoretically be solved - members with such so-called "intelligence" could create their servers and have their tea parties and tender breakfasts there - but that hope is broken now, as the server-creating application will probably never be released to the public again.

By limiting servers by registration keys as was done in the past... well, I do partially support the idea, but RbLcK's point stands true. The idea of limiting server access by ToriBooster subscriptions is a marginally better concept, but the new credits/items system that Boosters concern has rendered the necessity of limiting server access obsolete anyway, and with the game as a freeware product, mass numbers of members are joining - which, you obviously might tell me, is the root of the problem - but greater numbers of members equals a greater number of members buying ToriBoosters, ergo more profit than was being created in the first place. Nabi has no need to do this, and, hopefully, they are intelligent enough to understand that open servers are earning them more money.

In short, if access to servers was limited to those who paid - by any means, removed or no - less members would join, and then less members would be paying Nabi money to fund future projects or earn them profit. Nabi has discovered a better means of making money, and so have no need to return to their previous methods of doing so.

wise words Evil :]

The fuck? texture and toribooster servers?.. where did you get that idea from? kinda stupid.

i like the servers how they are, all you have to do to be able to enter servers is have a good amount of qi, this encourages new players to play more ;)
