avogatro Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Hi Which staff member is responsible for Server Deluxe Section? What should I do, if I want to get promoted? Thx guys. http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/tekkit-server-for-starbattle-3-0-4-creative-greylist-128-slot-worldguard-europe.12694/
Jay? Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 It's a communal thing, there are no individual board moderators. The actual deluxing is almost always done by cheapshot or kakermix though. As for how to make your server deluxe, you can start by making it not ugly. Then go further and make it pretty. Then go further than that and make it fantastic. Then go further than that and make it unique.

Jay? Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 like i said. If it doesn't look good, in addition to being unique it's not going to be deluxed. and before you go spouting about how theres no point in making pvp servers look good, look at forgotten vault. That's not just pvp, it's an anarchy server that got deluxed.

avogatro Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 Creative server Main theme is Sci-Fi and Fantasy. U can use the link in the first post to see screenshots ... In my opinion, its unique, and it looks good... I don't know how many people share this opinion with me. What is the next step?
Jay? Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 That kind of servers shouldn't be judged on prettiness, but on the theme/rules/plugin combinations/player base/etc, right? yeah, sure that's a great sentiment, except that your post is supposed to be representative of the server. If you aren't willing to go to the effort of making the post look decent, there's no way you could be trusted to put the effort into making a server with a robust experience. Now stop. you have your answer, it's not going to change just because you don't like it. Creative server Main theme is Sci-Fi and Fantasy. U can use the link in the first post to see screenshots ...

You need to make it look better. Then, once it looks better, you need to make it look even better than that.
avogatro Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 Ugly wow U must know a lot about Design. Can u be more precise? for example like this: Use photoshop to generate topic header use animated gif be more clear about *** in your *** section Thx Jay?
Jay? Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 I'm not going to walk you through it. If you want to see what we're looking for in deluxe servers, go look at the servers that have been deluxed.

Jay? Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 No need to be so mean... someone needs to get laid. What? that wasn't even me being mean. Thats the part that comes next. That was me explaining exactly why it's important for pvp servers to have posts that look good. I was using the general you, as in "all of you" "you people". However, NOW i'm using the personal you, as in you screwed up.

I've been here long enough for you to know I'm no stupid newbie. I promise I will behave from now on, mein Führer Jay? Lord of Lords.
Jay? Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 you're lucky that i'm in such a good mood. I was quite tempted to leave it.
VideoBoy Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 you're lucky that i'm in such a good mood. I was quite tempted to leave it. Yay! Thank you so much, mein Führer Jay?! You're awesome! :'D And, sorry again. Please don't hurt my family. I will never cross you again. <3
Jay? Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 It's certainly much better, but imo it's still lacking a certain something i can't quite name. As usual though, I'll be leaving the deluxing to a redname. Also, asking for deluxe will never ever get you deluxed.
avogatro Posted July 4, 2012 Author Posted July 4, 2012 OK this is final at least for the design. Forum BBcode is so bad, I dont like the software. :(
Jay? Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Just a hint, you can change the font to something that looks better when enlarged.
avogatro Posted July 5, 2012 Author Posted July 5, 2012 OK. but I thought font are per definition vector graphics. I don't see any pixel if i zoom in... Well thx anyway, I changed font of important part in my first post.
