hambeast Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 vbAwol, a question for you. In the controversial thread regarding dayz evolved, it was noted that several of the dev team members are running their dayz epoch servers with donor stores. I seem to remember a post stating that it is not ok to do this. However, it seem to me a blind eye is turned towards those who run these stores and "contribute to the community" see: Macca/DayzLauncher's Donor store selling in game items: http://i.imgur.com/4lYYkQx.png Cen's Donor store selling in game items: http://i.imgur.com/5fWMe4a.png It appears that this behavior is allowed so long as one contributes. So in your opinion, I ask how many lines of code do I need to contribute before I am allowed to open up my own donor store and sell in game items?

cen Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 I'm flattered you consider me a dev :D I'm nowhere near the level of maca/zupa/mcd. In fact I don't script at all, I provide help on the forums, sure, but that's about as much as I can do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hambeast Posted December 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 How can awol do anything about what people do on their own servers? Epoch is open source, end of story. That means I can do anything I want with that code, within the bounds of the dayz license. oh but it does violate the license. I'm flattered you consider me a dev :D I'm nowhere near the level of maca/zupa/mcd. In fact I don't script at all, I provide help on the forums, sure, but that's about as much as I can do! you're right. I see your name so much I just assumed you were contributing.

DeanReid Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 I can answer for him. 1. No 2. Read the following This project isn't run by Maca; he's one contributor among several And the Following. What he does in his own time is his own business, but it won't be promoted or supported by our project. He's aware of this and has no problem with that state of affairs, so I don't see why anyone else should have either. 3. Cen isn't even apart of the team.

I'll ignore #3 since I addressed that already. #1 & #2 your dev macca is monetizing works derived from DayZ as well as Epoch. How can you trust him to say he won't monetize evolved if he can't even honor the agreement with epoch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well........ they say it isn't, but obviously it must be, or it really depends on which way they flip flop on any given day. hambeast 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you trust him to say he won't monetize evolved if he can't even honor the agreement with epoch? The witch hunt is real! I challenge anyone to provide one ounce of proof that maca/ccg has made a dime of "profit" off of the selling of in-game items. My guess if you have NO idea what his monthly costs of running are. I do :) Flosstradamus and carl101 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hambeast Posted December 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Then let BIS come after him and stop the flaming... him? you mean you. But really though Awol needs to clear this up. What I'm getting from this thread is that it is OK to have a donor shop as long as you don't advertise on epochmod.com servers section. Linking your server or website with dono shop is ok if kept in the sig line only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
