I used to play planetarion but I quit because they stated charging, does anyone think this will ever cost anything? I would hate to lose this awesome game
No Super, this game will always be free and opened to those that wish to have a fun time playing.
<span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'>i would like to thank SuperHombre for not posting stupid shit on his first posts like some other gay n00bs</span>

hey Jr are you an admin? I didn't see you on the admin list, but I might not have looked close. You always respond quickly or are you just a person thats really bored?

Yup yup free, and if he can't pay for it it will be shut down ;p
But the thing is, if he charges people for this, Capcom would have a lawyer at his door :rolleyes:

Come to think of it, does it cost anything to keep this game up and running (other than your time spent on it)?

lol... hmm.. lets see
otta all the costs, the TIME is the most important one (u really shouldn't ignore that) ...
lefty and i have to both pay for a high speed internet connection, which we end up NOT using @ all (and i do mean NOT using for ANYTHING) ... we can't download files, or play games online (last time i played a PC game was prob a year ago... these days, my ping would be WELL above 400 even in quake)
i have to pay for the domain, as well as a hosting fee for the shockwave movie (which drains about 8-12 GIGS per week) so, in the end, we end up switching providers every few months since NO ONE wants to have their bandwidth drained as much as we do
and thats just to maintain the game... now add the fact that it takes more hours than any of u can imagine to implement those "cool" features (and the fact that i have to give up sleep/life/sleep to get any of them done in less than a year) and u have u'rself a nice little game... that drains the pockets and bandwidth of everyoen who even comes close to being involved with it...
but.. thats how it is... i dont ask for sympathy or money... the only thing i'd like... is to see a bit less bitching.. :biggrin:
