Hey,
I'm just wondering, what happened to boostar? Any news of it coming back?
Garry got rid of gold after Rust fans were buying gold constantly to try and get keys and ruining the quality of the forums. A little while after that people started complaining about titles so from what I understand, Garry then just removed the system.

this one i've never heard before
i thought it was the blatant title advertising and some guy
Can't he just set up a new store under a different system? I want a new title already.

pretty much this.
you can still get gold membership or titles, though. you just have to somehow beat me or CSG172 or Shortyish in the next facepunch smash brothers tournament you hopeless fucking scrubs. (or win any of the other infinitely less cool contests we mods sometimes do)

Or Orkel 1vs1 in World of Tanks (Aka Good fucking luck scrub)
I want to be gold... I'd totally buy it instantly if I had the chance.
(Also I want to change my name... hmph.)
Maybe put gold for $20? (double from wen you could before) and everyone will be happy!
:dance:
i want to title

When is the next comp gonna be?

Probably next month.
I just realized that I had hit the 5-year/2K post requirement that was previously the requirement for gold. I had no idea that gold membership is pretty much unattainable now.
Gold should come back, either in a store (i'd buy it just to support you poorass mods) or as a 'reward' by postcount + register date or something
dutch auction gold
(like rust)
Guys, stop reminding me that I missed my chance for gold twice.
fuck yeah merit-based gold membership fuckers

Oh hey, I recently hit five years as well. I got boostar'd in a generosity thread - I think I was among the last of the people to git gold before Boostar went away.
I regret not buying it. I just want a giant avatar, really.
I just missed out on the 3 year/2000 post and 5 year/500 post requirements both times then when I finally went to buy it, it was gone. Wooo.
I still think they should bring back the milestone system. I can't see any wrong coming from that. (aside from elitism but when has that happened in recent times)

Wow, get out of here you filthy 11er.
'07 is best year.
Pfft I've got an 80x80 avatar as a blue member. Who needs gold?

Melee? Play a real smash bros game you fucking scrub.
[QUOTE=ECrownofFire;47733262]Pfft I've got an 80x80 avatar as a blue member. Who needs gold?[/QUOTE]
And your blue name matches with your blue avatar! Who'd want to wreck that synergy?
I think that it'd be nice to have Boostar back, but similar to how reddit gold works. As in, you pay to give *someone* Boostar (a title or a gold membership), for being a good commenter, or good poster, or respected user.
That way, one would know that if you see a handful of gold users, they most likely earned it.
Just a thought.
gold membership and titles are stupid
my title is a cancerous growth and i'm losing the strength to go on
why must god play dice with my destiny :'(
But I like your title.
