View Full Version : Premium Account & Donations

starting now we will be offering both.

Premium Account (http://forums.nation-wars.com/payments.php):

- Color Name (gold)

- No ads (only for forums, but working on game too)

- Able to change user title to whatever you want. ** Users can't use forum management titles or ranks ie Admins, mods, generals, ect ect or use other members names in title, or any
disrespectful titles.** Doing so could result in revocation of your Prem membership.

- Nation Wars premimum players weekend tournament. 1 turn/minute (not every weekend)

- Larger Avatar (will let you know soon what size.)

-Premium Account members now have there own private section in the
forums..

- Prem members are able to access the Arcade.

just another small perk! :)


Donations- These are very appreciated. If you don't want to change your
user color then this is the function you will want to use. But if you donate
you will be able to access the weekend tournaments.


I know this isn't a lot to offer, but the premium are cheap and donations
do not need to be that much. Just trying to offset the expense of the
server and forum upgrade costs a little. So please don't think you need
to donate a ton of money..

Thanks

(We will be adding more to make it more worth while down the road)

how about a server that gives you say like 10k turns right off the bat so that Prem ppl might try to improve gameplay... now i know this would not be fair to the people that cannot donate so award a few 1 month prem accounts to random players ingame maybe

Do mods/admins automatically get prems like in WoW, or do I need to pay for one as well?

Svenne only gave prems to mods right in the last months of wow :)

I have tried several times to sign up for an account and pay with my credit card, but it keeps telling me that it's not validated when I know it's validated (I used the same card number to check my online bank account right after it was denied by Nation Wars) Apparently you guys don't want my $8 or something... :(

Although I am a little annoyed cause on my online bank it shows I've been charged 3 seperate times by Paypal for $1... even though I haven't completed a stupid transaction and I've been selecting the $8 one everytime! I'm getting frustrated and do not want to use paypal directly since the last time I signed up for an account there they released my email to 10,000 ****ing spam sites so now my email is full of spam everyday because of them.

09-21-2007, 12:19
what this message probably means is that you try to pay with a Paypal account which has an unvalidated creditcard connecte to it.

Mr. P. can tell if any money was received!

About the spam, I use for my business paypal quite a lot, and never been spammed. They are too big to sell you adress!! Must have been something else, an e-mail harvester, friends sending you a 'free' e-card etc etc :)

It must be safe if BB has personally certified it :P

And I would pay for one, but I'm technically still a minor and I don't have a credit card. So I have to wait until I can talk my dad into paying for one.

Mahdi
09-21-2007, 16:31
ahh... nice excuse... :lol:

Being a member of the BBB means nothing more then you were willing to pay them... they dont pick companies based on their work ethic... they just call up companies and ask if they would like to be a member of the BBB its like 900 for small business per year

Lets assume I'm a nice guy; would I then be able to donate a Prem to e.g. Crimson?

Crimson Shadow
09-21-2007, 16:38
I wouldn't accept the donation

Mahdi
09-21-2007, 16:40
already asked that it will possibly get worked in once we get the WoW code at least thats what Mr. P told me

@Crimson: You was only picked as an example of a situation where it might be useful. I wasn't planning to turn my Visa card into your "virtual piggy bank" :P

@Mahdi: OK, sounds great.

Mr President

At this point in time i would say yes we will be able to do that.

I was finally able to get one... apparently my billing address had to MATCH the address of my credit card. Jeez... how stupid is that? Took me a day to figure that out... :glare:

Missionary
09-21-2007, 22:04
lmao, good work thre ooooga :)

crimson, just use the excuse ur not allowed one :) always works. working out pay pal isnt a great idea wen ur ammered lmao.

@ crimson - hamlet was using u as and e.g. hes a stingy git and woulfnt really give aeway a few dollas hehe. :D

Mahdi
09-22-2007, 00:55
wait! do you seriously think i paid for my own prem? Hamlet bought it for me ... lol

ooga booga
09-22-2007, 01:19
How come he didn't buy me one? I'm a poor college student... I can't afford these expenses... :(

Hehe you got that right. You need to live in the 3'rd World to qualify for a donation from me ;)

Back on subject:

A forum Premium Account (e.g. 1 or 3 months) could be included as part of the Lottery prize. Just to add some extra flavor to the Lottery...

PS: Ooga you are not poor enuff - all you qualify for is a little bit of rep :P

Missionary
09-22-2007, 10:18
maybe purchasing a prem account gives you a set price on the lottery. say like 50k per ticket for aslong as you own one no matter how big your state?

@ ooooga - please remove your name, you do not have permission to be using my trademark :)

Ranger, try going under your "User CP" and under the tab "Paid Subscriptions". I believe you can order a Prem Account from there as well.

I'll probably also get a Premium...just need to boost the benefits first; easier to put the dealer under pressure, when you haven't bought the goods ;)

What about increasing the mail box for Premium Account holders e.g. to 100 mails?

Hehe you have been screwed big time with the present $/£ exchange rate. I could have used a discount of 80%; sux that I didn't get debited for DKR 8 instead of $8 :crying:

ooga booga
09-24-2007, 14:29
You have to change it to orange in your profile options thingy. That's what I did to get mine to be orange, haha. And ya Hamlet, it does say US $8, meaning you have to convert our USD to your DKR or whatever currency you're using. :p

yeh but on the recite i got from them it says payed a total 0f $10 - £5.08p or something like that. although my bank statement says £10 has gone grrr :mad:

then again thats barclays ant they are always screwing up. give it like a week when its finally cleared on my bank statement and it might have changed corectly.

After you purchase a prem acct you need to go into user cp and then
select group memberships and then select the Prem members group..

then your name will go from blue to Gold :p
