Hmm, Don't see why this couldn't be implemented but you're lazy as hell if you think ;;dz is tedious.

#119452 Extremely small suggestion

I've already made a bug report on this suggestion because gargoyles drop noted and superiors don't and I'd say it was a bug instead of just a suggestion.

Support.

Also extremely easy to implement.

Pretty sure it's just a matter of increasing the item ID by 1 to make it noted.

#117320 Introducing 'Duo ironman'

Posted by 2 swords on 13 September 2017 - 06:45 PM

I thought about this a while back, but given players quitting there's no way to really make a fair solution to allowing a player to then queue up w/ another ironman. You gave a solution but it involves wiping the entire banks of each user, which would cause the game mode to become dead quite quickly.

Not to mention the coding that would go into this. Classic mode itself provides more than enough.

I also don't support them getting to become normal ironmen, unless their banks are wiped. Reason being, I could make a level 3 and do no work while my partner grinds for thousands of hours and then he trades me all of the items and I then de-iron.

Posted by Ill max soon on 13 September 2017 - 05:24 PM

To be honest, Yes it's true omicron can better focus on coding different important things, but i never said this should be released tomorow it can be released any time, and i don't really think you see the concept of this, This is basicly ironman with a friend, to make this server more unique apart from others.

Classic is like a big ironman mode with friends.

Let's say this was released, and i paired up with someone, they quit and i had no one to pair with, i pretty much would have started a brand new ironman for no reason.

Classics still a fresh release i just don't see this being a thing anytime soon, maybe when osrs release it to bring new players in.

This will be a waste of time like dish said, all the time to code it when Omi can be coding different important things.

I mean just look at classic, was a hit sure but how many have stuck to it?

No support from me, just play classic.

In-game, Forum and Website Suggestions

In-game Suggestions

Wilderness Promotion (Clan Events)

I think we should try to do something to promote the wilderness more, for example clan events (pking). There will be x amount of clans/teams that will be able to participate in this event (teams of 5) and the reward for winning this event will be x (perhaps a bond for each member of the winning team). This will promote the wilderness activity and perhaps convince people to pk more often (especially if wilderness events are held every week/biweekly). This event could be hosted by uTorrent or an Administrator. This event could possibly replace the small events that occur over the span of 3 days (Friday-Sunday), depending on how big/popular it is. I would love to get some community input with this suggestion so please leave your opinions in the comment section below.

Game Panel Changes

I'm going to suggest four things that I think should be changed, they may have been suggested before.

Bonus Skill

The "Bonus Skill" option in the Game Panel isn't very informative, sure it informs the user what skill is the bonus skill but that's all it does. I'm suggesting there be some sort of explanation/interface. In this interface, it would show the current bonus skill, the next bonus skill, the bonus skill schedule and the time remaining until the bonus skill changes. This would be very informative for the user and would mean they wouldn't need to ask someone if they were confused.

Slayer Task

The "Slayer Task" option in the Game Panel only informs the user of what the slayer task is and how many of x they must kill. Though this is a good thing to have, I'm suggesting for us to be told where to find our task monster upon clicking. This would be helpful for new players however I'm aware that it may take a while to write out each location - perhaps members of staff can work together.

Kills/Deaths

The "Kills/Deaths" option in the Game Panel only shows killcount and highest killstreak, however I think it should also show the amount of deaths that you have. As previously suggested by Chase, I think it should also show your current killstreak as it's an informative thing to have and people who use the wilderness often would appreciate it. As noticed by FASTCLICKS7, let me rephrase: I meant to say I think the things mentioned should be announced by your character (or at least deaths).

Mode and Rank

Just a quick one as it's not that big of a deal but I think the "Mode" and "Rank" options in the Game Panel should be announced by your character, much like the the "Playtime" option.

Edgeville Lever

The lever that's south of Edgeville leads straight into 51 wilderness without warning and I've unfortunately had to learn that the hard way. I was unaware of where it led and was curious, I assumed that if anything were to be dangerous I would've been given a warning, so I pulled the lever and was taken into the wilderness whilst having my bank with me. I'm suggesting a warning to be implemented with this lever.

Forums Suggestions

Forum Rewards

As discussed by Hex, there should be some additional changes from my last suggestion thread with the Forum Rewards.

Icon Explanations/Descriptions

Currently, when hovering over the majority of the forum rewards/icons it doesn't provide a description of what said icon portrays. I'm aware that there's a page for the icon descriptions but others may not know this (newer players for example). This is very simple and easy to implement so I hope this suggestion is taken into consideration.

Skill Experience Milestone

Omicron currently has two unofficial icons for the forum rewards but personally I think they should be made official and implemented as soon as possible (seeing how easy it is to do). These icons that he has show that he's achieved 200M experience in said skill and it's a great accomplishment. I'm unsure if this has already been discussed with him but hopefully this'll get the ball rolling. People should get some acknowledgement for maxing out a skill. However, one problem with this would be that it could look very tacky if someone had 22 icons... Alternatively, you could add a 200M-all-skills icon, given to those who have 200M experience in every trainable skill.

User Legend

Just a quick suggestion. Currently the user legend doesn't show all ranks on the Forums. I'm unsure if there are any other ranks that aren't shown but Veteran isn't on there. It's not a huge deal but it's easy and quick to add.

Website Suggestions

Donator Store Changes

I'm going to suggest three things that I think should be changed.

Homepage

Currently, the homepage for the store is very unprofessional and tacky in my opinion. I think we should have either Chase or Slyther do some work for the page and create something that is more appealing. Along with this, they could update the information that's on the page. Some of the donator benefits are incorrect/inaccurate (I'll be happy to go over these with whoever works on the page) and the updated donator zone should also be added.

Rares Tab

I already discussed this with Omicron but I feel as if it could be argued - I would also like community input on this. Currently, the rares tab only consists of a black partyhat, black santa hat and a partyhat set (regular). I'm suggesting for the rares tab to have more rares - perhaps having the individual partyhat colours or even a rainbow partyhat. Omicron argued that people could purchase said things through custom donations. Therefore, as an alternative to this suggestion, the rares tab could just inform the user that if they wish to purchase a rare item they need to purchase it via the custom donation system.

Supplies Tab

I think the supplies tab should consist of more items. There are only five items that are listed but there are so many more items that should be in any rsps store. It's a very non-skiller sided tab and I think it should be revamped accordingly. Some of the items that you could add into the tab could be:

Magic Logs

Runite Ore

Rune Bars

Uncut Gems

Raw Foods

Dragon Bones

Leave your thoughts on x suggestion in the comments :^)

Thanks for reading,

Flowers.

#116297 New Donator Zone

Posted by F 8 on 09 September 2017 - 05:36 PM

Donator Store Page : http://www.alora.io/store/

With the recent update on 9/8/17 we received a new upgraded donator zone giving us more rocks, chin spots, new level 99 thieving stall and much more. To teleport to the new area type ;;dz and you must have donator status of any kind. Although most of the area allows only tier 1 access, you must have tier 2 of Super Donator to venture into the Gem Rocks and level 99 thieving stall area. A map of the new Donator Zone.

As you can see in the image above the donor zone is similiar in style but will feature a bit more of everything.

7 Magic trees in the place of the previous 3
Slayer master near ;;dz teleport and the bank
Furnace and Anvil located 10 steps from bank
Own secluded area for Red Chin and Grey Chin hunting
Much more rocks of all different types ranging from Copper+Tin all the way up to Runite Ore
Manta Rays and Sea Turtles still exclusive to Donator Zone
Super Donator+ Passage leading to 2nd level of donator zone
Eternal fire used for cooking inside bank
Nurse + Pool of Rejuvenation outside bank

Super Donator+

Accessible through ;;dz run North-West of the teleport location to the bridge, passing through the barrier will give you access to the new zone. Which provides plenty of open space that might spark idea's for more to come. If you have some in mind please voice them here : http://www.alora.io/.../3-suggestions/

New Thieving Stall

Requires level 99 to steal
Will be the only stall in game that gives you a chance at receiving the thieving pet Rocky.
Crushed Gem 2,925 exp per steal (well of goodwill included) sells for 10k each vs Jug of bad wine 3,315 exp per steal (well of goodwill included) sells for 11.5k each.
Area is less crowded with 1 stall and 1 Ali Morrisane walking around.

Gem Rocks

Possible rates i pulled from osrs, i've mined over 1000 rocks and they seem accurate.

Uncut opal Opal (~46.86% or 60/128)

Uncut jade Jade (~23.26% or 30/128)

Uncut red topaz Red topaz (~11.76% or 15/128)

Uncut sapphire Sapphire (~7.14% or 9/128)

Uncut emerald Emerald (~3.94% or 5/128)

Uncut ruby Ruby (~3.89% or 5/128)

Uncut diamond Diamond (~3.15% or 4/128)

Requires level 40 to mine
Exclusive to Super Donator zone
Quick and easy to mine and very beneficial to any types of ironman
Easy access to bank deposite (undeground)
Infinite amount of rocks
Respawn timer of roughly 40-45 seconds per rock
You must have Extreme Donator to access underground mine

In-game and Forum Suggestions

In-game Suggestions

Achievements + Achievement Shop Additions

I think there should be more achievements, more specifically I think there should be Hard/Elite tasks. I'm aware that some of the tasks we currently have could be considered as hard/elite already which is why I'm suggesting to revamp the list - perhaps gathering community input, suggestions for tasks etc. I also think there should be more items/cosmetics in the store. I appreciate the fact that there are experience boosting items but there are hardly any cosmetic sets/experience-boosting sets! In addition to this, why did you only add three pieces of the Varrock Armour set? I'm suggesting to add the remaining pieces of the Varrock Armour set to the achievement store.

Store Additions

Quests & Quest Points

I think you should do something with quests, whether that be a reward or to be able to spend the quest points on something. Perhaps, as a reward for completing all of the quests, the user should be rewarded with the quest cape. Perhaps you could get x amount of quest points depending on the difficulty of said quest, then being able to spend these points in a shop (cosmetics). In addition to this, more quests could be added.

Inappropriate Usernames

This is something that had been going on for far too long, people have inappropriate usernames and nothing are done about them (with the exception of one word being disallowed under any circumstance). Regardless, it's out of hand and the server is filled with usernames that are inappropriate and they're permitted. It comes off as unprofessional and I think this issue should be addressed as soon as possible. I'm not going to list any examples of inappropriate usernames that are filled in Alora as you're well aware and it would be pointless for me to provide one.

Item Drop Tables

The "View Monster Drop Tables" feature is very unique and I think it's a great thing for Alora to have. However, it's unfortunate that there's not another drop table feature that focuses on items. It would be very beneficial for people who wish to know how to obtain x item from x monster. I'm suggesting to have a "View Item Drop Tables" option in the Game Panel in-game.

Lottery Bot

This is a pretty straight forward option. It would save uTorrent and the other members of staff who help at this event time to focus on other things.

Go to Lottery Booth (only active when lottery event is active)
Purchase x amount of tickets
Lottery Booth takes your money and informs you on the amount of tickets you have
By the end of the event the bot rolls a dice and declares a winner

Forums Suggestions

GFX Competitions

I'm surprised that no graphics competitions are held. I'm suggesting for competitions (Signature of the Week/Month etc) to be hosted by either Slyther or Chase. Submissions would be accepted over a x day period. The host of this event (Slyther/Chase) would select the top 3/5 pieces of graphics that they think should be in a poll. The community then gets to vote on this poll for what piece of graphics they think is the best. The winner of this competition gets awarded with a the forum award rank/icon as well as x amount of cash (funded by the server).

Member of the Month changes

I'm unsure if these are even held as in the latest addition of the Alora Newspaper, Diva addressed that the Member of the Week was Ill max soon. So does that mean that Member of the Month isn't a thing? If so, I'm suggesting for them to be hosted monthly. I also think that members of the community should be able to vote on a poll for which member deserves to be rewarded with the rank (or whatever the reward is for being voted Member of the Month). Now, of course the clans of Alora can vote for their friends etc so I'm suggesting that, much like the GFX Competitions, the members of staff on Alora put 3/5 members into a poll then allow the community to vote for who they wish to be crowned member of the month. I'm unsure what the rewards are, perhaps a bond?

Forum Awards

Right now, Forum Awards are only given at an Administrator's discretion, meaning if you deserve x award you wouldn't be able to get it unless you contact an Administrator. I'm suggesting for there to be an area on the Forums where members of the community can apply for x award themselves. Quick note: Not all members of staff have the staff award as it's not automatic.

Veteran Requirements

This has been addressed a few times by members of the community already but I think you should allow people to obtain the Veteran rank - you should, at the very least, post a thread listing all of the requirements you need in order to be eligible to the Veteran rank. From here, they should be allowed to apply for the rank (if they meet all of the requirements).

YouTuber Rank Requirements and Application

I've already brought this 'issue' up with Omicron but I thought I'd address it to the community as well. As of right now, we have so many members of the community with the YouTuber rank, even though they're inactive and don't play/post content for Alora whatsoever. I'm suggesting for Omicron (or someone else) to redo the entire YouTuber rank list, post a requirements and application thread then allow members of the community to apply for this rank (assuming they meet the requirements). This way we'll have a list of YouTubers that constantly create content for Alora or who are, at the very least, active within the community.

Warning Point System

Quick little suggestion here, I think a thread should be made with a list of sanctions and how many points each sanction gives. It's an informative thing to have in my opinion (how many points = ban etc) and it wouldn't hurt to have a thread.
