I would love to have Urbowars because that brings back activity. I would like to have trophies for games because people might play more games because of getting trophies. I dont really see the point of having Junky to Funky meter because people dont use it correctly and its very inaccurate because of some people. E.g. Love_Child is rate at 4 and thats not true it should be 5. Osmeliio is rated 2 so is Magic_shodow and i am pretty sure thats not right.

1-Urbowars------>((((((((5)))))))))) <--------- agreed with zid plus it would be fun to have all the dispos back together in "action" in the arena again like the good old days...dats what i'd really love to see

1. Urbowars - 3
2. Crews (as in having crew pages and a formal joining up process) - 2
3. New assaults - 1
4. Dispo related gear - 1 (Already have a ton)
5. Trophies (as in not just Chronicles/Gallery and events, but also games) - 1 (TBH I don't really play the game that much... Wouldn't like that feature...)
6. Cribs - 2 (Great thing to do, but other things are far more important)
7. Urbopods / Beat Blaster - 3 (I have been waiting for the uploader to be fixed for like two years lol, I have tons to submit)
8. Chat - ***10*** (YES! IF URB HAD LIVE CHAT, I WOULD BE ON HERE 24/7! I SWEAR!)
9. Bank - 5 (I loved the bank)
10. New body parts 3
11. Lair customization (as in adding a banner or other personalization) - 5 (If we could upload our own banner, I would be so happy!)
12. Junky to Funky meter - 1 (Is it even broken?)

If we had chat, I would literally die from happiness. I've wanted that so bad ever since it was first brought up. That should be top priority over anything IMO.

Everything I gave a 2 and below I feel doesn't need to be here because it doesn't make that much of can impact on the society. Everything 4 and above I think people actually care a lot about and could have a huge impact.

lol Euph! The Junky to Funky isn't broken, I'm just checking to see if people think it's important.

Chat takes up a huge amount of resources, so I'm thinking that in order to make it a reality, the site would have to accept paypal and it would depend on people buying cash items.

As for Crews, since the Urbowars code wasn't working, our old programmer was working on crews where we would have Crew Wars and compete with each other that way. However, since people went crazy with cheating at the time, we dropped everything to clean up that mess and he never had time after that to do the feature. :(

If paypal was accepted then I am pretty sure there will be alot of mote cash item buyers and people may even donate if they want to.

Not sure if it would be compatible with the site, but there is a ton of chat room software out there. You just design it and then copy the HTML code to the website where you want it and you're done.

This is a good one that one of my forum websites uses, not sure if it would be of any help...

And I agree with Zidane. I think having a premium membership through PayPal donation would be fun. Say you are required to donate $20 for the membership yearly, I would do that and renew it every year. I would do it for something as simple as a Alter Ego display color change. Like on the forums and in the online box to the right... Regular members could have gray names, premium members could have green names. Something like that wouldn't take up too much programming time and it would bring in revenue. ^_^

Euph has his thinking hat on right now because he just came up with excellent ideas. I was wondering that is it free to have paypal on Urb or do you need to subscribe or anything else?


If there ever is anything like premimum membership then you should allow extra money from games, more interest from the bank, members only gear and some other things which would make people wanna get a members accout

Creating the chat is not the problem. The difficulty is that chat eats up enormous amounts of bandwidth that can easily cost hundreds of dollars per month. But that is an issue for bigger minds than I to chew on. I'm just making a report on what people would like.

I'm hoping that one day paypal and premium will be implemented on the site. I can't say that there are any intentions for it at this time, but you never know; things can change in an instant. I just want to be prepared.

May I ask... Do we have a programmer currently that can work on this over time, or is the search for one still on?

The programmer we have now is like... someone who comes to do odd jobs when we really need it. As always, the door is open for a programmer to come volunteer. Even with the best of networks, it's hard to find someone qualified who is willing to do that unless they fall in love with the game. In my mind, anything is possible and if it's meant to be, that person will walk through our door.

In the meantime, I'm gathering our current priorities, values and suggestions, and creating a guide for that magical person. If I do end up leaving for an extended time, or for good, I want to at least leave this for the next person.

I think if this game was like WOW or LOL Or even Wizard101 their would be no problems

*No thank you needed i have solved all our problems*

I believe I stated this before, but if you haven't read it yet, here it goes:

Premium accounts would be an awesome feature that you pay to have. It can include various of advantages over the non-paying players. They can get the chance to buy an item before everyone else, if the item will be a one-time release and only 50 will be sold. Premium accounts can change their names, etc.

Depending on how strong the premium is should also depend on the price. I've hear of this game called pockie ninja (On some mmo site) It said premium gave a HUGE advantage to players and that was the disadvantage of playing the game. Everything cost a lot when i checked it out. (Games sucks btw I lost interest). But if it's like pay 10 dollars and you get 10mil urbos that's not a huge advantage. That might not even be worth buying. Youd have to use your brain to think about how you want it varried.

I also like Love's idea, she proposed it a while ago.

Having two different currencies, Urbos and Cash. You can add cash with your paypal or credit card.

It would be cool if you can earn cash randomly in battles, games, and such. And maybe you can trade the Cash amongst your friends for items or urbos.

Urbowars were never fair. There was always someone finding a way to cheat. Also the more people in a dispo the easier it is to win. It's like a crowd attacking a single victim, not very fair or sportsman-like.
