Suggestion Featured servers

[Fady]

Hello,
I suggest to add a new benefit for Premium Users which is adding servers to "Featured Servers" page.

how does it work?
A new page on otland that can be found here:

Premium users can add their own server to the list, a moderator should check first if he's the owner of server then confirm it.
when someone clicks on Featured Servers, he'll find a list of servers saying information like ip, client, server owner and description etc.
System will check if server is offline or not, if its offline for more than 3 days then it will be removed from the list(if they're not removed then it will be very messy).
This will let many people from otland join those servers, also it will let many people buy premium just for this feature.

Hard work for the moderator :/

Sounds Good

So basically a built-in server list only for premium members.

I'd say no, why should premium members have that privilege?
This forum isn't focused on advertising server, it's focused in open tibia in general.

why not? it won't harm.
Actually its the same as "advertising board" but for premium users only, more organized and in a place that can be seen by all otlanders(http://i49.tinypic.com/qz3e61.png).
Its just a better advertising for premium users.

If its the same, why not just throw the option in the advertisement section?

Great idea.

But that isn't a part of the forum.

OnT: I say yes.

Sounds somewhat good and somewhat bad, don't really see disadvantages with it. But there is an Advertisement section already, I know this one is "meant for premium users", who's to say that wont stop someone from getting their "premium" friend to make a featured server.

Besides which, how will it keep organised? It would behave the same as the other boards (e.g, bumps; just ruins the point).

TLR; would be un-organised, so it's a no from me at the moment. I do see potential for it though.

I'd think of it more like an OT-Server list. Where people add their servers and the servers that doesn't meet the requirements get deleted from that section (they had have to re-add their server).

But that's happening everywhere, even at marketpkace, check some of sn4ake and AnneMotta's threads, they create topic for their friends then they say that they own 50% of the product which I believe that its a lie.

I think everyone thought that it will be a board when I said its the same as advertising board, I'm sorry for that, I meant that it will be like otservlist or something, shouldn't be even a thread, only 1 line with server information like ip/description/client/port/server owner etc.

If that's the case, I sign for a yes. Though I don't play many Ot's it'd be a useful feature and great to support some really nice otservers.

Made an idea of how it might look like:
(Took some of the servers in advertisement as examples)

Active links:

 

[Prest]

You should be able to click on it and it redirects you to their advertisement thread for further information.

Yeah, that's the idea. All of those are links but not visible on an image

AHAHHAHA
No.

 

[Peroxide]

AHAHHAHA
No.

Any good reason why not?

 

[Sharp]

AHAHHAHA
No.

Why not?
Seems like a decent feature for those that pay, they get access to TFS, why pay just for that, and a board and some 20px larger display pictures and a little bit bigger signature.

 

[Fady]

AHAHHAHA
No.

Reason plx?
