are you high, most donations in really large communities don`t get a number near that.

Pressure + Trying to kill people = Meh. People catch onto you if you don't reply within seconds, and how you can just fucking reverse what I typed, I'm talking about when you're [B]traitor[/B] meaning you can't read innocent anywhere xD

its not that hard, just hide a c4 nearby with the minimum time limit, perhaps somewhere near a T tester, have as many people there as possible, stall, and teleport out right before the explosion. never fails me

I have seen some large communities make around $40,000 to $100,000.

Yet most of them are probably shit.

You could be the shittest community in existence, but if you know how to make money, you know how to make money.
Working on something and then the textures spontaneously break (happened to me a dozen times at this point) so you leave yourself at the mercy of the save system.
If you're lucky, everything will be mostly intact when you get back, except for minor annoying glitches.
If not, well good luck re-doing it again.

So it's like a business... made up of people wanting a community?
Most RP communities are juggernauts that are essentially medium-sized businesses.

That's in extremely rare instances, but I have seen how much RP communities can rake in first hand.
I made like 25$ bucks from DarkRP in total since I started in 2008.
This depresses me.

Hey you should start inputting code to show ads on DarkRP servers whose owners are too stupid to delete the code
Then you can rake in the all the $$$
[sp]ignore my ulterior motives to lower DarkRP's server base[/sp]
seriously though, with thousands of servers you could be raking in some serious moola
People adding me which are then being like [URL="http://pastebin.com/2f5HwixL"]this[/URL] for releasing stuff that only works on servers that want you to use it.

The modern example of nikola tesla and thomas edison. Why is it so typical for people to profit on someone elses work?

I unfortunately agree with this guy. Don't give fucking cheats even if csallowlua is on. Stuff that would normally be considered hacks in other games are hacks in Gmod.

Try turning on the Globalshow config option in DarkRP.
DarkRP itself will become a hack by your definition.
people that ban all furrys and bronys just for being furrys or bronys.
i cant stand people who ask for help in an unreadable format
[QUOTE=:smugspike:;42731148]So it's like a business... made up of people wanting a community?[/QUOTE]
Think of it this way.
Most of the people playing DarkRP, not all of them, are playing specifically because they want to feel powerful.
Ever wonder why Pulsar Effect(its fucking DarkRP.), made the Physgun, VIP only? Because most of their playerbase was from DarkRP. These players who came from a gamemode where the currency is based primarily on money printer farming, are now coming to a gamemode based on weed farming! Only difference? These people now can't actually do any successful contraband farming operations, because they don't have a damn physgun to actually use the props they could build in the gamemode.
The gamemode was very much purposefully set up to make money, and now we got groups like Hellzone which got it in their noggins that...
Hey! These kids which are coming from these DarkRP servers seem to really fall into peer-pressure provided by these clans inside of our server. All of these clans have specific uniforms, specific bases, and most importantly specific cars! We could capitalize on this concept by tier-basing the cars on a "1...2...3...4!" type tier system in which the players couldn't get a Challenger SRT8 unless they were Tier 3. How much will Tier 3 cost though? How about thirty fucking dollars!
And these bigwigs start to separate and alienate players on what VIP they have, and all of the players will actually go with it! On some RP servers like Fearless, clans have gotten this idea stuck in their head that you must have a suit to be able to RP with their clan! How much does it cost to wear a suit though? Fifteen dollars every three months.
Ever since 2009, we have seen a massive trend take place in which almost every RP server is for-profit. Which is understandable within some degree, but it's almost fucking mental the amount of money these communities are pulling in from just simply tier-basing the gamemode. I am almost willing to bet that eventually we'll see fucking servers like Hellzone, reorganizing their skill systems and making it impossible for players to manufacture AK-47s, Molotovs, Lockpicks, and other items that are almost essential to the game, and they'll do it simply to pinch another dime.
Welcome to Garry's Mod RP post-Pulsar Effect, folks! It's been a fun ride which involves a bunch of cons charging kids to get free balloons.

I always wished that someone would make a module for GMod, have a server made and make people download said module, than edit that module to have a key-fisher and fly it under the carpet as a "necessary update"
Or create a free-ware module which took over servers in some probably not plausible way.
I don't know if it's said yet, but when you log onto a server with broken shit everywhere, ERROR models and ropes leading nowhere and such, with people who refuse to communicate and are only trying to spawn-kill eachother in an arena of their own shit.

it's a horrible comic that shouldn't be taken seriously
sure Tesla was more awesome than Edison but that doesn't mean that Edison contributed nothing to society

You can make an idea or a creation, and it's up to others to capitalize and improve on it.
Welcome to Capitalism.

I don't get this either.
I mean if they were flaunting their fandom or whatever in a seriously annoying manner or a really obnoxious/NSFW spray, then I can understand action being taken.
But if someone bans them just because of their avatar or TAME spray, especially if they're just minding their own business and not bothering anyone, then it's just stupid.
This doesn't just go for what you mentioned, I see it happen with many other things, too. Anime, Sonic, Homestuck, Hell I even saw someone get banned because they had an avatar with Bugs Bunny in it once, with the reason "fucking furfaggots not allowed"
