    Scott, asking will not get you into the playtest anytime soon.

    ...

    I swear Flayra, I truly respect you ...

    I don't think I could deal with this kind of stuff everyday and even in my e-mails probably 10 fold ...

    Naaaahhh...

    Scott, as it even says in the FAQ, if you want in, post INTELLIGENT posts, and ask in email. Not make intelligent emails and ask in posts.

    +5 what? lockee anger level? moderator prestige? number of locked posts? <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    Well, you should just be worried when it gets to +8. That's the super-secret Moderator summon spell. We call it 'Edit Post Vengeance'. At that point, we begin to play hardball. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    *Puts on shifty eyes* U kno, if you talk to the dwarf king and then go the aqualius wearing the gold helmet, and smack the eagle, then sell it to a guy in googamaloosh, you can get the almighty Sword Of Banning, +13.

    jeej i like d&d.... i dont think whyning will make you get in the beta test team... although you can ask him nicely ONCE...

    contrary to popular beleif, the more emails you send in all caps, leet speek and using bad words will get you a better chance.

    A better chance at WHAT, though?  <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Seriously though, Flayra has basically made his decisions as to who's playtesting and who's not, I'm not sure if there are going to be more recruited later on or not, but it'll be most likely based on who has a good grasp of what playtesting is as opposed to who begs for it more.

    I guess I have to spam the boards to get noticed  <!--emo&:angry:--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':angry:'><!--endemo-->

    --edit--
    that was meant to be a joke but after I reread it, it sounded to harsh. Just keep in mind its a joke.
  • pielemuispielemuis Join Date: 2002-01-25 Member: 72Members, NS1 Playtester
    spamming will only get you banned from these forums, as discussed in the other thread, not every1 can be a playtester, and I wouldn't mailbomb Flayra, it won't help anyway, just keep in mind that since they're playtesting the mod is very near to completion, just a little more patience <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Flayra should release a 'waiting list' on whos next in line to be added to the betatest team <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    But if the playtesters mess up NS, I will have to get revenge.  And Mole, you should learn SMITE™.
  • TychoCelchuuuTychoCelchuuu Anememone Join Date: 2002-03-23 Member: 345Members
    heh, who needs revenge? they screwed up NS, thats bad enuf.
  • MoleculorMoleculor Namer-of-Bob Join Date: 2002-01-24 Member: 9Members
    Ooo, I don't like the idea of a waiting list. Then, if that person starts making a complete idiot out of themselves, they'd have to be removed and all that... and if someone comes and joins the forums and is totally -brilliant- at whatever Flayra is looking for, that messes up the waiting list too.

    As for spamming the forums... did you notice one of the playtesters has less than 50 posts?
  • the_stalkerthe_stalker Join Date: 2002-01-25 Member: 49Members
    i dont like the idea either sry to say.... and how do you spam in the forums? if i had, i didnt mean to mr molecular <!--emo&:(--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('><!--endemo-->

    Hell, I'm a forum bum, and I have under 600 posts. I'm willing to bet I spend more hours a day logged into these forums than most of you stay awake, however.
  • Bob_the_AlienBob_the_Alien Join Date: 2002-01-30 Member: 135Members
    /me notes not to make jokes anymore
  • MoleculorMoleculor Namer-of-Bob Join Date: 2002-01-24 Member: 9Members
    *snicker* Jokes are fine. And -I- knew it was a joke. Others sometimes don't, but they slowly realize it over time.

    I just wanted to point out that one of the playtesters has -very- little in the way of actual posts. Under even -30- I believe... though I could be wrong about that number now. He was under 30 a couple days ago.
  • GreedoGreedo Bounty Hunter Join Date: 2002-01-24 Member: 37Members, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    Moleculor, if want to stop dancing around the obvious, just click the members button at the top of the page and look at the people in the playtester group (developers and super administrators also had access to the playtest).  You'll see that there are a number of playtesters without even a single post.
    Though I really don't see what the point of all that is.

    I would love to playtest for this mod,but I know you guys are full at this moment and I will be the last of the list probly if thair will be any more added,so I will wait for it.(or for the mod to be released to the public)

    But if I do somehow get chosen It would be my 1st time playtesting for anything really.
    (Yes I know,I am new to the forum so my chances are 6 billion to 1 here)
  • MonsieurEvilMonsieurEvil Join Date: 2002-01-22 Member: 4Members, Retired Developer, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    It's not about your post count. If that was the case then Jedisar would be lead tester.

    There are users who aren't even board members (such as the Iron Lore crew).

    Moleculor, that was 14 posts, lol, quite a small number indeed, I've never even seen him on the forum before  <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->
