Shardrox Posted May 5, 2018 Author Share Posted May 5, 2018 I mean that no one should have reduced cooldown. Whatever you're a donator or not. Link to comment

There should be an increase on the cooldown to post an ad, but I don’t think increasing the cost is a good idea. It is not a good idea, so if you think strategically, a delay between adverts is the best possible solution. Link to comment

A delay wouldn't solve the issue, you're just replacing the problem with another (assuming after the ad posts, you can call to get another ad posted again) by changing how the cooldown works. I think @Shardrox's suggestion with applying the 10 minutes cooldown for everyone, regardless of donator status, is a better idea. Link to comment

An idea would be to set a cool down of 5 minutes for donators and 7 minutes for the non-donators. In that case they still have an advantage but it's not blocking others from making their advertisements as well. I personally think 10 minutes is too long in case you are hosting an event. 1 Link to comment
PandaGaming Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) Just raise the advert price to $300 so people will think twice before advertising so much... Edited May 6, 2018 by PandaGaming Link to comment
Lance Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Keep price, have at least 2-3 min cooldown, that ad spam was really annoying the other day, honestly, especially if you try to do something and this copypaste keeps popping up. Link to comment

The price isn't the issue. Let's face it, with the government bonuses, $300 is a drop in the ocean for the bigger businesses, and people can post three ads in a row just to get one person inside. And raising the price only hurts the smaller businesses. My vote is on making a longer cooldown instead. 1 1 Link to comment
Makkebakke Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 I personally see nothing wrong with the current system. I hope to see something of a sophisticated ad-queue system eventually, but I understand that's probably at very low priority. Link to comment
TonyPetronero Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 To be honest, regardless of the timer or the amount of money it cost, I was still going to post the ads. It could have been $1,000 an ad and I still would have done it. I'm trying to bring RP to the server guys, let's not forget that. Link to comment
