Already voted. Vote rewards need to be simple, like, 500-1000 coins per vote.Then no new person would vote, and why economy base it? I'd do lamps or something.
We talked about having different things, possibly name changes, skill locking, stuff like that. Nothing major that will effect the economy or give anyone a huge advantage in game.Sure, sounds great, but let's be honest not a single new person would vote for this....It doesn't make sense. You guys need to stop planning the rewards around veterans, because we'd vote for nothing as long as we were reminded.

Honestly the only thing I can think of that won't break the economy nor cause that much of an issue are lamps. Or you could have a point shop, and give points for voting, then have multiple rewards which can be bought in a point shop. I just don't see a new player voting for skill locks and name changes....especially when you get done locking skills and changing names...there would be no point for a new player. Look, I know you don't want to provide a unfair advantage. But in order to get votes, you need to provide an advantage to the game. (I realize some people are nice and donate/vote without asking.) But you don't have enough "Veterans" voting per day to get popular, you need the players voting too.We talked about having different things, possibly name changes, skill locking, stuff like that.

We're always open for recommendations.
I'd like voting rewards to be forum-based like a color to your name and suchPrayer, the idea is noble, but new players are not like you and me. We NEED the new players to vote, you can't just give them forum colors...it will never work. I like tennessee's idea but I don't really understand it completely. I honestly feel like the only logical choice is XP lamps. I don't see new players voting for forum-based rewards............You guys need to think like a new player. Look, I've dealt with advertising and voting many times before on multiple types of private servers. You have to imagine you're a new player who just joined, who has no connection to the server, what's going to encourage me to vote? Being reminded (Auto-messaging in game.) and a reward that I can actually use. Sadly, forum ranks and name changes and skill locks mean almost nothing to a new player.
How does 2.5-3x exp rate for 30 mins after you vote sound?
Prayer although current players may not like it, the only way to truely get votes is to provide some sort of in-game benefit, it sucks but it's true.How does 2.5-3x exp rate for 30 mins after you vote sound?
I'm not fond of this idea at all.

The only ones that got a huge playerbase all got the playerbase from the one that started it all which is 2006redone. One server did manage to get a huge playerbase, but all the ones after that just posted on each others website after their death saying "join us! We won't die!"Prayer although current players may not like it, the only way to truely get votes is to provide some sort of in-game benefit, it sucks but it's true.How does 2.5-3x exp rate for 30 mins after you vote sound?

Well not quite. Most remakes\old school servers I've played don't give out in-game bonuses yet they've managed to create a fairly large playerbase.

We would never give players in-game items that would give them an advantage over another player.Prayer although current players may not like it, the only way to truely get votes is to provide some sort of in-game benefit, it sucks but it's true.How does 2.5-3x exp rate for 30 mins after you vote sound?

If we must reward players for voting, at least have it be something cosmetic, such as what is seen in RS3, mainly custom animation for emotes or other possible animation tweaks. As much as voting isn't monetary exchange, doing service for in-game reward is still one virtual asset to another. Bring back ::rickroll

we never said we would give them xp ...We would never give players in-game items that would give them an advantage over another player.
But wouldn't extra exp count for an advantage over another player?

Yeah we have a few ideas for benefits but xp isn't one of them.we never said we would give them xp ...We would never give players in-game items that would give them an advantage over another player.

Ah. I assumed that because previously here J U S T I N asked for exp benefits like 2.5x and such, then you came and said about yes to in-game benefits; but you weren't clear as to which.
Yeah we have a few ideas for benefits but xp isn't one of them.

You obviously have never used a voting website before. New members will NEVER vote unless given a reason to. Hence the reward.We would never give players in-game items that would give them an advantage over another player.

I'm sorry but I don't agree with there being rewards in-game for voting.. The whole fact of the matter is, this is a 2006 remake server, not SoulSplit or BattleScape, in games like that rewards are acceptable for voting because they aren't playing to replicate the experience of RuneScape at a specific era, this however is different, if we start giving out XP lamps for voting doesn't that just defeat the realism of training and grinding out skills. Some of you have said that XP lamps aren't beneficial but really they are, thus i'm against any form of obtainable item from voting, even GP, the whole point of voting is if the server is good, people vote, there's no point bribing people gold to vote, because the people like us who love the game enough will vote regardless of any reward. So yeah, I agree with Prayer, possibly there could be different forum colours or something, maybe even on the forums over <--------- there it shows my name and stuff, it could say like "Voted: 57 Times" for instance, or something along those lines.
Again, any cosmetic items is rather pointless and removing the genuine sense of this being a remake, i'll admit that yes, we need people to vote, but giving them items doing so in my opinion isn't the best option to go about things.

New members should vote because they enjoy the server, not because they're being bribed.. I'm well aware of voting reward systems but this isn't a server that should use that method of generating votes.
i'd just like to say, maybe double exp could be held once a certain number of votes are reached for a server?
I agree with Prayer. We already have x2 exp as it is, i didn't mind the event due to the downtime but don't make it a habit :oi'd just like to say, maybe double exp could be held once a certain number of votes are reached for a server?
I don't like this idea. I feel as though this server would stay great if the exp rate were the same, else people would hoard items like nats, herbs, and resources for a 2x event.

The links in green are links you guys can go to vote at, and the links in blue are threads we have posted.
Voting rewards are being worked on as we speak. But until then if you guys can vote RuneRebels up, that would be great.
