Patreon Donors may link their discord account on patreon to get a special role and display color on discord that grants the use of external emojis, but they must select a tier to get this automatically assigned to them. If the other platforms see enough use i'll enable this on those platforms too.
The US server runs almost $200 a month.
The EU server runs $80-90 a month (depending on exchange rate)
And TTS costs a little under $250 a month (with over 100 of that paid for by other servers)

May I ask why does /tg/station need a dedi for the webserver anyway? Perhaps we can get together on irc or voice chat or something sometime and mash heads together regarding tech stuff?

Re: TGSTATION IS CROWD FUNDED
I mean, I can't say we do, other than that it would speed up the fact that it takes the wiki a full second to load any page, on top of network transfer times.Jeb wrote:May I ask why does /tg/station need a dedi for the webserver anyway?
I live 30 miles from the server the wiki is on, I have 20ms ping to it, and it takes me a second and a half to load any page on the wiki. I can't imagine how bad it is for some people a lot further away. The slow loading times on the wiki's page has been the only thing i've been unhappy about as a system admin.
I put the cdn higher than the dedicated server because that takes quite a bit more effort to setup, so i wanted to give me a bit more warning before we reached it.

Any possible way you could give me a copy/backup of the wiki? I'd like to throw it into a testbed and see if perhaps a different configuration could fix it?

Re: TGSTATION IS CROWD FUNDED
Forwarded the overages I had from the patreon account to your paypal.
Word of advice for you and for anyone donating or considering donating:
The pledge amount can be misleading. It's actually pretty easy for someone to say they'll donate an amount and then not come through.
The schedule for receiving payments is a little wonky too, I was sweating bullets waiting for a bunch of things to clear and things were closer than I would've liked them to be.
Having more people donate smaller amounts is much more preferable because it prevents any single person from being able to back out at the last minute and fuck everything over.
Anyone donating more than $10 should consider not doing that to encourage others to cough it up first. You probably think you're being super nice but you're actually fucking it up and it puts too much responsibility in a single person's hands.
...unless you're actually trying to position yourself so you can someday suddenly remove your funding at the last minute and fuck everyone else over. Then you're doing it exactly right. And you're a jerk.
Asking for more than the server actually costs to host is prettymuch necessary in order to ensure people donate enough to actually cover the fucking thing + build up a little overage in case people back out or things take too long to be processed.
Of course everyone will think you're a big fat phony who is scamming them out of their social security tugboat but I think there's a special hell for people who steal money from retards.
If you do it at least spend some of it on a Sonichu medallion.

The server is in CWC Ville.
Chris Chan was behind it all the entire time.
His medallion absorbs autistic brainwaves throughout the earth giving him powers to physically assault people in shopping malls.
/tg/station13 was setup to give him more power.

Don't know what to tell you. I canceled it as best the service would let me. My account has no way of collecting or depositing funds.oranges wrote:An0n3 I still see your patreon in my creator feed.
If you're still seeing stop subscribing to it or patronizing it or whatever.
Yeah, because everyone is being stupid and donating large sums, and everyone else who might donate those $10 amounts sees that things are being funded fine and decides they'd rather save up for that bad dragon purchase they've needed to fill the void in their colon since I quit.Sometinyprick wrote:it would be all well and nice if we had fourteen people to donate ten bucks each

The server should be paid up until the 6th of May. That gives you guys almost a whole month to back your donations back down to something reasonable and see if other people will step forward and donate. If they don't? By all means be a "whale" of /tg/station and jack your donation back up. No harm done.
It's not fucking rocket science here.

Re: TGSTATION IS CROWD FUNDED
Since the host doesn't pay the bills anymore, it would make sense if the Host Headmin appointment (that is currently in possesion of Coderbus due to inertia) got handed off to the server patrons- not like in a "you paid this much so get this many votes", but "if you pledge X dollars you get a single vote no you cannot have another".
Even if it doesn't- if the Host position is now just a primarily technical one that no longer pays the bills, giving them their own headmin appointee doesn't make much sense (No offense is intended to the honorable stonermin, it's just a point of policy). The third headmin should either be a player vote, a patron vote, or definitively set down as a coder vote rather than a host appointment.

Honestly, I wouldn't give any kind of power at all to people who donate. I don't really want to see people try to game the system in bullshit way to try to gain influence, and I really don't want to see drama stemming from people feeling like their donation was worth nothing because more people who donated were against something they wanted. It's just a huge, looming clusterfuck of drama that'll most likely have severe negative effects on the server.

I'm not sure if this would be feasible or not but if we do make it to 420 you should hire someone to just optimize code, for increased performance. Having someone dedicated to this in my opinion would be great, and I think we could see a few speed improvements to the game.

Having someone dedicated to this in my opinion would be great, and I think we could see a few speed improvements to the game.

Re: TGSTATION IS CROWD FUNDED
Not if it's someone from the community necessarily. You could hold kinda like a contest where whoever gets the best performance increase gets 1st place, and have a cash prize for 1st - 3rd place. When -tg- has extra money these could be held.oranges wrote:You'd need to pay them more than roughly 250-300 a month.
Over time we should theoretically gain quiet a bit of performance as this would drive people to redo / optimize sections of code instead of just tweaking it here and there.

Re: TGSTATION IS CROWD FUNDED
I wouldn't be opposed to cash rewards for code optimization, because unlike "who made the best contribution to the codebase" or "who did the best X", how much you reduce processing load can be objectively measured to prevent drama.
It's hard to call "whaaaaa favoritism whaaaaa circlejerk" on "his number is smaller, so he gets the prize."

In game, I play the A.I Firmware, the French cyborg C.U.R.I.E, Aubrie Allen, and the lizard scum Skulks-Through-Maintenance.

This is an Open Source project and code has been written under a license.
I urge nobody here to give nothing on this patreon bullshit unless this man starts posting receipts of where he spends every penny.
I'm not saying this aggressively. For an Open Source project that has a patreon, this is needed.

Re: TGSTATION IS CROWD FUNDED
The patreon and the code are completely different. This is entirely for the server.
I code for the code project and moderate the code sections of the forums.

Because it's hilarious that if you would've read any part of the actual patron instead of just running your mouth, you would've seen that's it's for the server

He's right though, there should be transparency at all times when it comes with money. A lot of WoW private servers show exactly where all they money goes, and it would be pretty good to know where this money goes as well.tedward1337 wrote:Did you really just make an account so you could post thisAgouri wrote:This is an Open Source project and code has been written under a license.

Re: TGSTATION IS CROWD FUNDED
Cash: $250 a month for the hire of the server
$The Rest: Some paypal account used to cover shortfall or whatever
My best guess
