i hope this is one big joke

No, lets get rid of hlstatsx completely and lose shit loads of donors to satiate a vocal minority.

Yup, as much as people like to complain about HLStats, they're pretty vital for keeping the servers populated.

lets pay money in order to give most players a sense of elitism and a reason to bitch about other players

Butane Wrote:think I mentioned this long before, but ohh well:

yearly reserved slots with benefits, tiered based on the amount of servers someone wants to play on (they get cheaper per slot the more you get) also if you do it monthly some people would forget/find it a hassle(like me). this way you only have to spam it once a year to remind people.

$10 for 1 server
18 ....2
26.... 3
32.... 4
38.....5
42.....6
46.....7
50...ALL-including idle servers/tf2items subscription and anyother benefits.


reg donors like me really wouldn't be affected anyhow by the changes above.

What Butane said.

i think the idea of being monthly, six months or a year subscription would be great also you should get rid of 1 box. 2fort server is empty most of the time as well as pro server.

Good idea to have a premium slot to bring map votes and maybe a couple more options.

I had a feeling this was going to happen.

I haven't a clue why hlstats for 6 servers cost $27. The site advertises $9 for five servers. It really doesn't matter as that is a fraction of the cost.

I have donated a healthy sum and wouldn't mine upping my donations.

I love the suggestions Duplex has made. Donations really took a dive around the time that all of these features were implemented (Kick for avoiding autobalance, autoscramble, lack of admin presence). It may just be a coincidence and donors have moved on.

I know what will be said but sourceop has been a fun competitive community. All the features this year has rewarded stupid play. The hats may be a nice addition to some but a lot of the competitive players (and possibly those who donate the most) are turned off by it.

I'm paying their old prices (and also in euros). I didn't even know the prices changed. I'll see if they will modify the subscription.

Don't worry. The changes that happened to the actual game around this time had nothing to do with it.

It doesn't work like that. Whole box or nothing.

Hey DF. Sad I knew change is ultimately unavoidable as we all know. Sorry you have to make decisions like this. I'll start to donate more to the server. I would hate to lose my stats and also would HATE to lose my 24/7GR Sad. Basically if I lost your server I'd pretty much stop playin the game. Or at least hate chasing all my friends around to other servers.
