Originally posted by Kurupt No offence but i dont pay for games like this its a gd game and pretty fun but i just dont see the point. I think the get respect free is misleading because you still end up having to pay for something. Im enjoyin this game anyway. Oh and Ruff Nite theres alot of other ways a website can make money other than charging people how do you think sites such as myspace, facebook which im guessin took a lot of time and labour making are able to give it to millions of people for free. 

 

This doesn't make much sense. MySpace and Facebook have tons of users, and even they struggle at times to monetize them. Their primary income is selling off information and selling ads. I don't think it would be cool to plaster ads all over this game (not to mention, the high pageviews and low click rate would make the rates horrible) so the next best option? Allow users who want special things to get those things and support the site at the same time.

Your argument is basically that not only should the game be free, but all upgrades and perks in the game should be free too? You ever play an XBOX 360 game? Not only do you have to pay upfront for the game, but you have to pay a subscription fee to play online AND you still have to pay for upgrades (in the form of downloadable content).

Yeah I suppose would be gd if u could get respect other ways as well but make it hard so you would have to play the game alot to earn it and buyin it could just be the easy way out. Lets face it Respect should be earned not bought

When youre doing surveys they make 15 pence (round about 30 cents) this site takes a percentige of that and thats how it makes a small profit.

all social networks do this too and i will be soon also.

dont forget this sight pays to advertise also, everytime some one clicks a prison block add, this site has to pay the website a certain fee to the website its hosted on per click.

i will be paying for respect as soon as i sort my bills out

1. There is a way to be respected for free. Mufasa allows you to vote. 1 favor a vote. If you use those favors for respected it becomes free.

Also don't forget that you don't see all the fees that they charge but facebook does with adds. Ads there are a little pricy and it wouldn't be cool if mufasa had ads on this site. 

And also don't forget that for this game to be online he has 2 options. Buy a server (a good one) for pretty expensive or get someone that has it already and pay monthly. For both of these options it cost money. And also would you like mufasa to work only on this and be able to support himself one day or would you like it that it gets updated once in a while because he has another job.

And a game cannot be homosexual it is not male nor female.

Do not ask if I want to trade my clean toilet. I am keeping it. If you want to spy on me...read my profile...It's worth it.
