so it replaces the ad space banner for 40 credits of whatever you want it to say? like dreams V pulse or whatever and pulse makes it say "dreams sucks" is that the gist of it?

Pretty much - you see some paper entries also:
The inhabitants of XXXXXXXXXXX (500:500) now know the depths of their wretchedness- they cannot gaze skywards without observing our taunting banner.
They see in theirs:
The putrid kingdom of XXXXXXXXXXXX (500:500) has long thumbed its nose at us when our backs are turned. Today they have openly unfurled a banner to taunt us and placed it in plain sight.
At the bottom of their kdpage you get:
This kingdom's inhabitants gaze forlornly upon this banner
<banner here>
and finally the top banner ad on the throne room is replaced with the banner you select.
I think personally think that the below, should be viewable by everyone in the game
At the bottom of their kdpage you get:
This kingdom's inhabitants gaze forlornly upon this banner
<banner here>
all hail goodz
<goodz> can strangers see it?
<goodz> i feel like a big appeal of it is that strangers can see your whit
<goodz> being as the utopia community is very proud of its extreme cleverness
Seriously, nobody is going to pay for that, at least I would hope not. *yawn*
I'd do it every now and again if: 1.) it was the KD banner instead of the ad space and/or 2.) the price was dropped from 40 credits to say 20.
I second this, especially if Bishop is in charge of determining what is offensive. He's already quite happy to delete accounts without properly checking into why they tripped the auto detect 'features'.Quote:
"You are forbidden from uploading of pornographic, copyrighted, profane, personally identifiable, hateful or otherwise offensive content"
Hateful or otherwise offensive? Surely taunts are mostly going to be offensive or could be taken as such by somebody? That will be the main problem with this feature, someone will pay for a borderline 'offensive' banner and get his account suspended and no refund.
As an aside, is there anyone to keep Bishop more in check? He's rather abrasive for a moderator.
LoL
I still think the price is a bit steep, and I wish it was slightly more annoying/spammy especially at the price point.
but its pretty win just the same.

when combined with our epic war banner it is very win... i just wish it was embedded into every page so they had to deal with seeing it in the middle of the screen all the time...
Enable an audio taunt for 100 credits that plays whenever said kd views my kd page! I'll never get attacked again
40 credits is ridiculous for this. why not try to make cheap features first, generate SOME money, then try to go for the gold with stuff like this. sitting is cheap, wonderful and worth it. its the only time ive spent money on in this game for.
changing race and personality in game and having to restart your province anyway is another waste that no one will pay for when they can just delete their province and start over in 24 hours...ppl need to think about what others are willing to pay for when a free option is viable...a lil off topic but still worth noting.
If you spread disinformation I will remove you. You will not get another warning.Quote:

We all know how much already but if you could tell us factually so we're not assuming. thats a good start
Lol,
no.
Make a big annoying chicken appears on the middle of the Throne page and some kingdoms will buy it.
This is just a game... text messages on bottom/tops of the page would be ignored easily.
Bishop, I see sense on the way you defend the system, but many players are already telling you they will not buy it unless it costs at least half less. Maybe it's worth to halves credits cost suggested and have 4x buyers.
Also, you can make the cost decrease according the number of days kingdoms choose to "buy" a banner for the other kingdom.
Like:
1 day would cost 15 credits
2 days would cost 20 credits
4 days would cost 30 credits
7 days (the max) would cost 40 credits
I think its too expensive myself, but they aren't going to even look at changing the price until we have some data on usage - its easy to drop a price, very difficult to raise it.
Understood, I guess now most players will agree with you too.Quote:

I think a lot of players would fear getting in trouble for what they put up on the banner. It would be a very fine line between witty and offensive/ban. I know there is only so much labor, but it almost seems like a banner approval process should happen before it goes up to ensure that no one is deleted after the fact. If I'm going to pay for something to go up on their page, I want to make sure I don't then get in trouble for it.
