Special in-game bonuses

[Borya]

Maybe starting a guild that gave ranks and special in-game bonuses for reporting exploits and accurately reporting balance issues and/or contributing actual materials, while denouncing anti-developer guilds and activities.

We should totally do this. While we're at it we should have in-game bonuses for donating, as well! Like colored pants and levels and donator/bugfinder only gear! And exclusive donator/bugfinder servers that have double or triple the normal xp and loot! It'll be great!

Also, if we do this for the mention of balancing issues, I've been saying the hxbow is overpowered for years leading up to the rebalancing of it. Do I get a prize? Colored pants, perhaps? And can I get a hat when spellcasting is finally brought up to snuff? I've been railing about that forever!

That's what I suggested :? Or at least something similar to it :|

Definitely trollin'

Hell yeah at least half of my posts were bug reports, where's my tome of trollcano?

Spits out prismatic elemental DoT trollface projectiles that deal .00001*(fire/lightning/ice/poison/dark/acid) damage, thus negating any attempts to apply DoTs to affected monsters.

Bonus points if it's on an "unusual" hat.

No I'm not being serious.

The in-game bonuses shall be an unique item that will have unknown powers upon consumption, and will be known as a "Cookie"

The mystical powers of the cookie shall never be noticed...

Given that the escalation of the war on developers has spilled over onto exploit reporters, as mentioned in the changelog, I have opted for a item reward system for exploit reporters, that will keep such exploit reporters anonymous, and prevent their persecution.

If you report an exploit we manage to fix, before anyone else does, we'll add you to the Exploit Reporter's Club system.

At the moment, Sembelbin offers one of eight items and services. Included amongst these, currently, are all five Felewyn symbols, and resetting your name change costs. I intend to keep the two newest items in every patch on the list - so said list will change every patch - in addition to six other "very rare" or hard to acquire items. Choose your reward wisely, as we're not going to roll you back just because you failed to do so - though you can always report another such exploit to qualify for an additional reward in the next patch.

I *might* add specifically requested items to the list, but keep in mind that I'm limited to eight items due to the menu size limit. Lest I wanna jump through some painful, and potentially buggy, hoops. I might also come up with unique, game affecting items.

As always, media contributors (maps/models/etc), who are particularly prolific, sometimes receive unique "developer" items or crests, but as a matter of policy, such items have no affect on the game. In Keldorn's case, I granted him a developer item as, while he hasn't contributed any new maps or such, he has been insanely helpful helping us track down various bugs and exploits and various other issues for a good long time now. Really, I think at least half of all the fixes we've seen this year wouldn't have been possible without his help.

I believe this calls for a round of applause for Keldorn.
:clap:
