Un-Cheating and Kyoubai

In our upcoming auction house Kyoubai, we had to limit players who had purchased cheats from the fun of selling and buying items, since that could drastically upset the economy. This brought up a fairly frequent request to allow players to convert accounts that had cheated into ones that hadn’t. Today I decided to finally get around to implementing it. You can now convert your cheating account into a regular one, providing you are cool with losing all your flezz and items. It costs 1 Brownie Point, and is available under the Support Us! tab. ...

You can play Forumwarz if you're under 18!

From time to time, people ask about the content of Forumwarz, and why we don’t ensure that our players are 18 years of age. I feel like it’s time to responsd. Remember that Forumwarz Inc. is a Canadian corporation, so we are only concerned about our own local laws. Having said that, a lot of what I’m about to say applies in the US as well. It is not illegal to produce a game that has sexual or violent material, nor is it illegal to let people under the age of 18 play such games. It’s true that a copy of Grand Theft Auto might have a Mature 17+ rating on it, but those ratings are voluntary and the stores you purchase them at don’t have to enforce them by law. ...

Kyoubai: The Forumwarz Auction House

We’re getting pretty close to launching our first major feature since Episode 2 was introduced back in October. It’s called Kyoubai, and it’s an auction house that allows player to auction their items to each other for Flezz. The name Kyoubai was chosen by the horrible denizens of Flamebate in a series of polls. It is one of several Japanese translations for auction, but it also sounds a lot like Ok, you buy!. ...

Help us design ads, win some BP!

I just created a thread in Flamebate for a new on-going contest we’re running. You might have noticed ads for Forumwarz around the web. They’ve worked out pretty well for us in the past, bringing in thousands of new players! We want to start running more ads around the web, but our current ones are getting quite stale (not to mention we only have them in certain sizes.) Do you know Photoshop or another paint program well? Do you have some funny (both NSFW and SFW) slogans in mind? If so, you can get some BP for your efforts! ...

Job Board Enhancements

I pushed out a few enhancements to the job board today. Most are to address confusion players get when they beat a forum and don’t get paid for the jobs they complete. Usually what happens is people don’t know a time limit is attached to a job, or how long it took them to complete it. So now, if you have a job when you enter a forum, you’ll get instructions in the top orange status bar: ...

New E-Peen(tm) Length System

Previously, everyone’s E-Peen(tm) length was relative to the leader. What this meant was that there was one user with a 13" peen, and everyone else’s scores would be scaled against it. It was good on paper, but people hated it. There were multiple discussions about how bad it was, so yesterday I changed it. In the new system, each E-Peen(tm) you earned contributes to a potentially unlimited length. It will never go down. ...
