Todays updates! (27 March 2015)

Post by Mike » Fri Mar 27, 2015 10:06 pm

Updated on 27 March 2015
- Added a few commands for staff to detect bots more easily. Botters, you've been warned.
- We flogged the decanter who was stealing potions if you had exactly 4 doses of a potion. Sadly, he drank them all so we couldn't reclaim the lost potions, but at least he will never do it again.
- Fixed the bug where fletching a large amount of bolts with cut gems while wearing brawling gloves would not give you the right amount of XP.

- Major voting update!
As of now, whenever you type ::vote, you will be brought to our voting page at http://vote.pkhonor.net, where you can vote for us on 9 different toplists. Furthermore, you no longer need to be logged in to the game to receive your voting points!
There are three different 'tiers' of toplists.
Tier 1 toplists are RuneLocus, Top100Arena and Rsps-List and each give 6 voting points when you vote on it (8 points for donators and 10 for premium members).
Tier 2 toplists are TopG and Ultimate Private Servers, which only result in 2 voting points per vote (no bonus for donator/premium)
Tier 3 toplists are GamingToplist, MmoRpgToplist, Top100Rsps and TopOfGames and do not result in any rewards.

Voting on a tier 1 or tier 2 toplist will occasionally result in 500 voting points! Voting on a tier 3 toplist will never result in a random reward.

The reason we divided the toplists in these three 'tiers' is because RuneLocus, Top100Arena and Rsps-List are the three most prominent - and most visited - toplists, so it's important to get a high ranking there. The others are far less important (and some don't support incentive voting at all), but we really appreciate any votes we get there anyway.

Furthermore, whenever you vote on a tier 1 toplist, you'll receive bonus points based on how many tier 1 toplists you have voted on in the past 5 days. This bonus is capped at 5 points.
In other words, as a premium member you can receive 45 voting points per day (3*(10 + 5)) just for voting on 3 toplists which takes less than a minute!

Some more items (mostly some colored equipment and a few cheaper but useful items) will be added to the vote shop later on, but that's for April.

You should add the new vote page to the list at the top, to make it easier to find, and remove the Wiki option until it's actually added. Is there any chance you could at least give people one point for voting on Tier 3, else there really doesn't seem to be much point in doing so...not that I'm complaining about a much anticipated voting system fix ;)

Great to hear of progress from you, Mike :)

So, less voting points per day. These are the updates I like to see!
