Premium Membership

[Red Arremer]

hey what about my name color changing to lime green?

You have to activate it in your userprofile.
Go into your Control Panel, click at "Group Memberships", scroll down to "You may choose to be identified as a member of the following groups" and you can select the green there.

Simply go to 'user cp" up top, then click "group memberships", and simply update your display usergroup at the bottom.

^ By doing that.

edit: Oh snap I'm too slow!

I suddenly have gotten Top Postbit... is this a bug? D:

I suddenly have gotten Top Postbit... is this a bug? D:

looks like a bug in the system for sure, but custom titles are too good though

I got it too. Server update?

 

[Lobos]

I was bored and got money to burn post!

 

[Azua]

Will it not let you guys switch it back or something?

 

[Red Arremer]

It's solved... seemingly a temporary bug or something, it's all good now. :V

 

[Azua]

I guess that's what happens when I log off. lol

 

[Red Arremer]

The forums become buggy if you leave? XD

 

[Azua]

I logged off for like, 3 minutes to make my avatar and it bugged.

VB likes to **** up the very second we look away.


Are any of the pranks or permissions malfunctioning, guys?

I know I already broke the colors once or twice messing with them.

 

[Red Arremer]

Azua's presence makes the boards cover in fear and do what she wants.

But if the cat's away...

 

[Azua]

I added something for you pink people

 

[GwJ]

So, any chance of permanent subscriptions?

 

[Pr0phetic]

Gah if my mom was around I'd spot her 12 to get me this. I'll see what I can do!

 

[D13]

Thanks, that answered a bunch of my questions. :]

 

[Nysyarc]

I don't know if it's already been asked or clarified, but if it has I haven't seen it so I'll ask. Do we just get one custom title when we first buy the premium or can we change it later?

 

[Azua]

you can change it yourself

 

[Nysyarc]

you can change it yourself

So like, as many times as you want? Wow, I may actually have to buy this.

 

[stingers]

you dont have enough colors?

uhh

just make it so people can pick their own colors

its not that complicated

really

look: http://www.febooti.com/images/color-chart-picker/color-chart-full.png

something like that

 

[Azua]

Are you purposefully ignoring the three or so posts that explain how people mimicking already color-defined usergroups is a bad thing or what?

 

[Red Arremer]

I think Azua wouldn't say it is impossible if it were possible.

Also, limegreen is epic, stop demanding another color.

 

[OmniOstrich]

I am so very tempted.

I would like to know:
1) Can we prank mods?
2) If we pranks someone who has a custom title of their own (mod, or another premium member) does it still change it to pranked?

If these two things don't work its not quite as exciting.

 

[Azua]

Custom titles do not get changed, and staff are not eligible for color changes.

 

[stingers]

what the hell? because it's just SO HARD to ****ing not let people use colors like that

like, i'm just saying it'd be a nice feature. as it stands, i'm not buying one of these cuz the green is ugly and i dont give a **** enough to waste money for the other things. if i could pick my own color, it'd be badass as hell.

its seriously not hard to understand

 

[Azua]

*sigh*

Find me a color that isn't being used and is not at all similar to a color a usergroup already has.

I think the choices are: Silver, Yellow, and White. White is going to be taken soon, however.

Noone forces you to buy the Premium membership, if you don't see the benefits from it - you're mainly supporting tournaments with it.
It's like you go into a shop and ***** about how they have only green cups if you want blue ones, lol.

Orange? Brown?

It's like...a perfectly valid complaint. If you want something and they don't have it, you suggest they add it so that they can make more money and better serve their customers. It's called business sense.

Its really not the same at all. This takes all of 5secs and 0 production costs, unless you are factoring in the time spent by unpaid mods as having some sort of cash value.

First are writers, second are Pokemon Researchers.

What's "business" about this? You're helping your own community with this, there's no business behind it. You can make suggestions, but if they say "No, thanks", then it means no. Continueing being a douche about it won't make it better.

I'm pretty sure that a color choosing system and locking away the actual Usergroup colors (and their similar shades) takes pretty long.

 

[victra♥]

The color for premium is freakin' hilarious. But yeah, lime green. I don't even know.

x.x

 

[stingers]

Look, Spade, I'm not gonna argue with you because I know you'll just fight to the death that you're right about this. If they don't wanna do it, whatever. They're losing MY money, but my money isn't a big deal to MLG. It's whatever.

Forgot about the random small groups =\

It depends on how proficient you are at coding...For an actual engineer/computer science major it shouldn't take more than a couple hours.

Did I miss any, guys?

Now, finding a range of colors that are not similar to any of those is going to be kind of hard, especially since similar colors can appear the same on some people's monitors. Stop being obtuse.
The whole point of colors is to make usergroups easily identifiable.


It probably -could- be done with coding, however it is 1) not necessary and 2) directly related to MLG tech.

We're still waiting on updates from last year, but I'm sure they'll put all that on the back-burner for you.

 

[Red Arremer]

Yes, you forgot Hiemie.

Oh, and the Smash Debaters.

 

[Nysyarc]

Oh, and the Smash Debaters.

Yah, how could you forget us? I feel unwanted

 

[Azua]

That was difficult to code into a pretty rainbow

cut me some slack or I'll cut your face


Trust me, I'm all about colors and shiny stuff. If there was a way for us to do that without it turning into a mess, I would have whined and cried and tantrumed until it happened.
