Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Hello
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: ?
Tales: Hey?
Tales is now Away.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: So
Tales is now Online.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: I hear you were an administrater before TnB Donation Spam?
Tales: Yep.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: I've been looking into some Donations and such.
Tales: Back in the good old days.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: And I would appreciate it if you could help me out with what's bad with donations, and what's good?
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Or if to have them at all.
Tales: Donations aren't a bad thing. It just got out of hand.
Tales: It started with a small donation extended your prop limit.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: One escond
Tales: k
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Oh
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: He's on mobile.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Nevermind, continue.
Tales: So I think it was like $10 - $20 got you the prop limit extendor.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Alright.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: 10-20 for the extension...
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: And then what?
Tales: I think you could get away with $25. This was like years ago so I'm trying to recall all the different options.
Tales: I don't think we had any issues with custom model donations.
Tales: That was a little more pricey.
Tales: The real issue came with custom sweps.
Tales: I'd stay far away from weapon donations.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Hehe, of course.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: I've never even considered that.
Tales: I think before I quit, and part of the reason I quit was it was possible to donate for admin.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: WHAT
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Are you serious?
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: TnB?
Tales: Yeah, I'm not sure it lasted long but it got pretty bad.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: gg
Tales: Dave Brown kinda killed TnB
Tales: I knew him back when he was chill, then he just hit the deep end with donation greed.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: If there was Voice Commands in steam chat, it would be; "Good god." - Citizen, HL2
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: When was this.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Like 2008-2010?
Tales: At least 2008
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Well
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: HL2RP has changed a LOT.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: And to be honest it's a shitstock.
Tales: Well after the fall of TnB in 09ish I think at least the death of what I found fun.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Have you seen some of the current HL2RP communities? Or clockwork?
Tales: It just stopped being enjoyable.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: :S
Tales: Nope
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Ignorance is bliss, mate.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: http://forums.cloudsixteen.com/index.php?board=28.0
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Every week a new HL2RP pops up.
Tales: 2009:01:29 08:00:19
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Often they're really bad.
Tales: That is when i was working on a map with Ansith.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: You map?
Tales: So it was after 09 that it started to get really shit.
Tales: No, I design.
Tales: Ansith would map
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Cool!
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: How is Ansith?
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Is he still with TnB?
Tales: Nah, he left before I did. I stole him to a Wow Private server I was GMing on but haven't talked with him really in a few years.
Tales: He's doing good last I heard.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Hehe
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Jesus, 2009.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Those were known as the golden ages of HL2RP.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: I only started playing HL2RP in late 2012.
Tales: 08 and 09 were some of my best years of Rping.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Which isn't much.
Tales: 09 was when I commanded SWORD
Tales: My own Combine unit
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Liker.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Like*.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: I'm jealous.
Tales: I wish Rick Dark maintained control of TnB
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Shit like Shock Core Gaming
Tales: The father of Gmod RP.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: forums.shockcoregaming.com
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: So.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Actually.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: TnB's Combine Control is pretty good.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Well, from my time on it.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Anyways.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: That aside.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: What made those years so great?
Tales: The community was good, lots of people. Usually had 2 full servers.
Tales: Outland areas had rebels RPing.
Tales: While we had the city packed.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Hehe.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: That's a problem in nowaday's HL2RPs.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Due to the fact there are 60 HL2RP servers run by 12 year olds.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Sorry if I'm asking a lot of questions, by the way. I appreciate the answers.
Tales: You one of the guys running Novabox?
Tales: Right?
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Yeah.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: I was going to use Combine Control, but TnB took over that market.
Tales: Well no worries, I'm glad to help.
Tales: I miss the old TnB days.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: I was going to have you talk to Ferub.
Tales: By Combine Control you mean
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: But he's on the toilet.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: It's a gamemode.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Not the community.
Tales: Sorry that's a phrase I'm not familiar with.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: It was named after the old community.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Yeah.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: You know Dissinimate?
Tales: Ah.
Tales: Don't think so.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: He made it.
Tales: Ah.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Same guy who made Vein, if you know what that is.
Tales: I wish Rick Dark was still developing.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Was he the original owner of TnB?
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Or...
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Sorry, I
Tales: He was the guy who created Light RP.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Sorry, I'm not all that familiar with TnB.
Tales: Gave birth to Gmod RP pretty much.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: I just have some buddies who go there.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: What is Light RP? .-.
Tales: He eventually worked on the Tacoscript.
Tales: Was the RP engine of the original RP servers
Tales: Light RP gave birth to Dark RP.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: Alright.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: You still have gmod installed?
Tales: Basically a RPing Gamemode.
Tales: Not at the moment.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: You should install it, mate.
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: What gmod ver did you have?
Ⓓⓡⓔⓜⓔⓚ #novabox #hype: 9?
