Constellation Members have restricted Beta access. They don't want to havie Consties talking in the PTs/Vets forum (since we weren't chosen for skill or pting) but needed a restricted spot for us to talk in.
Its already been said. Its because of the slight beta access they have. I'm assuming it is because while the dev team doesn't want them romping around in the secret vet/pt forums, they does want to at least have a forum where they can actually see what the constellation members think of the beta so far. There is a reason. It isn't to make them feel special, although I'm sure a couple of them are feeling quite special anyways <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
With the Release of 2.0, flayra increased the playtesting feild from the PTs to the Vetran clans... these clan members opened up new bugs and tried things the pts never tried.
With the Release of 2.1, Flayra is doing the same thing... opening up the feild of testing to more people, so that they can catch more bugs, try more random junk, and iron out 99% of the bugs previously missed by the other groups.
....the forum is to discuss these bugs, talk over how to fix them, and talk about random topics.
I heard its where constellation members talk about how much non-members suck, and actively plot against us! theyve got all thses ninjar hax0rs and theyre gunna corrupt your half life directory cos your so cheap!

Well, everyone was half right. The constie forum is there for us to flame non-members, also we take pictures of ourselves holding signs saying "WOW! I'm in constellation!", we also talk about how cool we are.
I just told my parents it was for an internet game, and then payed them back. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd--> The thing is, my dad's fine with it but doesn't have a Paypal account.

Ok, but seriously here guys- could you lay off insulting us Constellation members? I mean, sure, there are gonna be a lot of people that pay so they can beta, but at the same time, many of us donated WAY before this, and some I've met that donated this weekend never even heard about it.
We have our own forum because we need to talk about the beta we have, have some fun with it, and try and help out NS, as we already have before.
Well said Quaunaut, I hate when people think that we think we are uber cool cause we have a star. Thats not the point of a donation. I donated cause i know Flayra/devs created a very good game he was just asking for 20$ which i think is fine after all the months/years that they spent working on this.
They made this game for us, they made this game for our enjoyment, the game is free. What else do you want?

I could also donate 15$ and be a Constellation member myself.
I just don't see the point of them having their own <i>special</i> forum.

thus said the official word.
Er...no...we don't do that.

Kill the flames, if you hate us, screw off.

PayPal is actualy very safe (Its how I handel most of my $$ transactions)
It is infact just so much safer then ussing any hard based mail system for getting $$ around
I didn't tell my mom, Its nice having your own paypal/checking account <!--emo&::marine::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif'><!--endemo-->
