Rikifive 23,472 April 1, 2020 Share April 1, 2020 MTX (microtransactions) typically exist in games in form of purchasable in-game currency, skins, boosts, items and so on, for real money. To not search far for a reference, the Gameloft's MLP game is filled with these, so you might be familiar with that type of system. So, we'd like to introduce on-site microtransactions here, on MLP Forums, in the store. It will be a great way to support the site, while receiving awesome rewards. That's true we already have the subscription system, but we'd like to give you more options to choose from, as we're listening to your needs. Please note, that the system is still a work in progress and will become available soon. So let's talk about products, shall we? We know, that you like scoring brohooves and not everypony has the time to farm these, so after listening to your feedback, we decided to give you more options of obtaining them. These packs will boost your COMMUNITY REPUTATION, simply known as brohooves or brohoofs. - receive an instant, permanent boost to your brohoof count - the brohooves WILL count towards the leaderboards, allowing you to win the day more easily - no limit, purchase as much as you like We also know, that some users are quite shy. Users, who post less because of that, but they'd still love to get the ranks they'd like to have. We have a solution to that! These packs will boost your CONTENT COUNT. - receive an instant, permanent boost to your content count - "upgrade" your rank by raising your content count - no limit, purchase as much as you like Eventually, if you're far away from your desired rank, consider unlocking them all at once! This pack will unlock ALL RANKS and allow you to switch between these at any time in your profile settings. - instantly unlock all available ranks - this skips the post requirement for ranks - ability to select your favorite rank and switch at any time in the profile settings - permanent account upgrade Oh we know you LOVE to give brohooves! What would you say to a RAINBOW BROHOOF? This purchase permanently adds an animated rainbow brohoof to your reaction pool. - animated reaction for you to use - preview: - your brohoof will stand out more than the others'! - show everyone how filled with magic you are! - permanent account upgrade We also have something for active members! This purchase grants you the GOLDEN PONY STATUS for one month! - GOLDEN PONIES raise content count twice as fast! - GOLDEN PONIES receive double amount of brohooves! - GOLDEN PONIES receive a lootbox every month! The lootbox may contain:35% chance for brohoof boost (25 - 250)35% chance for post boost (10 - 100)15% for a common Post Skin[1]5% for an uncommon Post Skin[1]3% for a rare Post Skin[1]2% for an EPIC Post Skin[1]5% for a free ONE-MONTH SUBSCRIPTION (THE SUBSCRIBER for 10.00 USD) - GOLDEN PONIES are immune to the laugh reaction! [1]post skin - a colorful outline around your posts, similarly to what cast characters havefor example, Rainbow Dash has a gold outline, see the first post in this threadPost Skins are tradeable. More will come in the future, so stay tuned! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, yes, of course, otherwise that would be chaotic. All ranks mean the ranks members can acquire through raising the content count. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troblems 5,608 April 1, 2020 Share April 1, 2020 I hate microtransactions, and I refuse to be apart of these shenanigans. It’s corrupt and immoral, and I won’t stand for it. I am Jack’s almighty and righteous anger of the internet. I also want my v-bucks back. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikifive 23,472 April 5, 2020 Author Share April 5, 2020 I know it's late and stuff... .. but check out this Post Skin setting with one of the rare skins. If you'll have any skins unlocked, a new option will appear at the bottom of the text editor, allowing you to switch the skin before submitting. By default, it will be selecting the one you prefer, which you'll be able to configure in the profile. It will look like this: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
