[17:54] <Overdom> Yo skulfuk.
[17:54] <OverFuk> sup
[17:55] <Overdom> I interviewed you last year, how have you been since?
[17:55] <OverFuk> pretty much the same, cept older & balder :p
[17:55] <Overdom> and you are still a ninja right.
[17:55] <OverFuk> yup
[17:55] <Overdom> Any changes in your job?
[17:56] <OverFuk> i've gained a few more 'tricks' so to speak, thus the pointless item influx.  other than that pretty much the same stuff
[17:56] <Overdom> Care to share a few "tricks"?
[17:57] <Overdom> or are you going to have to kill me after this?
[17:57] <OverFuk> veb's been adding more stuff for us to make things.  achievements, new items etc are now available to shopadmins
[17:58] <OverFuk> as well as a lovely revert function which has managed to infuriate some users
[17:58] <Overdom> Sounds great.
[17:58] <OverFuk> i like the revert, the reactions is gets is funny
[17:58] <Overdom> This revert function, does it take care of most scams?
[17:59] <OverFuk> in a way, it saves manually chasing items, now we revert a transaction & the item jumps back to it's owner
[17:59] <OverFuk> of  course if the items been sold inbetween you end up with an angry player who just lost an item
[18:00] <Overdom> So in a way, It could be used for the scam?
[18:00] <OverFuk> that's the idea, but at ties it causes more work if things have been sold on
[18:00] <OverFuk> *times
[18:00] <OverFuk> it's handy for chasing ban-bombs though  XD
[18:01] <Overdom> And you said new items
[18:01] <Overdom> what's going on with that?
[18:01] <OverFuk> mostly daft stuff like cucumbers etc.  they set off a war in wibbles recently which was kinda cool
[18:01] <OverFuk> my fav is the ban-bombs though
[18:02] <Overdom> Are we going to see any new things like colors or textures
[18:03] <OverFuk> we just got 512 textures, and joint textures would kill older hardware with the added memory requirements so I doubt we'll see any more of those.  There's 3 unused colours in the current client, but there's no real point in adding yet another gree/blue/red etc
[18:04] <OverFuk> forum specific item have been discussed & will more than likely appear sometime soonish
[18:04] <Overdom> ooo sounds coo
[18:04] <Overdom> l
[18:04] <Overdom> And I heard that the promo team kinda screwed the economy.
[18:05] <OverFuk> yeah, badly
[18:05] <Overdom> Are you guys doing anything about that now or is this going to be....like it is?
[18:05] <OverFuk> well, i recently killed off limited edition colours (other than Alpha Imperial) so they were restocked in the shop to sink some of it
[18:06] <OverFuk> problem is users
[18:06] <Overdom> What about the users exactly?
[18:06] <OverFuk> they buy from each other so the tc just circulates rather than being removed
[18:06] <Overdom> I see... Ever think about increasing the price on things?
[18:07] <OverFuk> kinda, then we made normal textures dirt cheap to encourage spending
[18:07] <OverFuk> the 256 texts sit around the price of the old ones now
[18:08] <OverFuk> 512 are premium priced
[18:08] <Overdom> and do you think 512 is worth it?
[18:08] <Overdom> if people have 256 anyway?
[18:08] <OverFuk> totally, the detail difference is amazing if you've got a good set
[18:09] <OverFuk> 512's and RTRT looks ace
[18:09] <Overdom> sounds good.
[18:09] <Overdom> Now these forum related items
[18:09] <Overdom> What are we talking here
[18:09] <Overdom> like custom.... underlining and stuff
[18:10] <OverFuk> still very much in discussion ATM, but things like an item that enables the search function etc have been talked about
[18:10] <Overdom> or custom colors
[18:10] <OverFuk> user title colours & other profile stuff has been mentioned too
[18:10] <OverFuk> there's a lot you can do in that regard, but picking the good ideas takes time
[18:10] <OverFuk> no one wants to pay for something shite
[18:11] <Overdom> An item that enables the search?
[18:11] <Overdom> that sounds kinda
[18:11] <Overdom> Wrong
[18:11] <Overdom> I guess
[18:12] <OverFuk> it''s been talked about, the search function is pretty heavy on the server so it would give a balance between user getting something & the economy
[18:12] <Overdom> hmm ok that sounds fair
[18:13] <OverFuk> kinda like toriprime, they get sigs pics, bigger & animated avatars as well as a hidden forum which is like wibbles without the moderation
[18:14] <Overdom> That sounds good to me
[18:14] <OverFuk> yeah, they got a free upgrade  ;)
[18:15] <Overdom> well that's about enough about the economy
[18:16] <Overdom> What do you think about the current mod team?
[18:16] <OverFuk> it's pretty good, kinda lazy but better than what we've had
[18:17] <Overdom> Is anyone
[18:17] <Overdom> slacking?
[18:17] <OverFuk> we've pointed the finger many times, and it's enough to get them back off their asses
[18:18] <OverFuk> things are a lot more relaxed now though
[18:19] <Overdom> So everything is going well, new items are coming, the search function is coming back soon
[18:19] <Overdom> and what do you do as a ninja?
[18:19] <OverFuk> still mostly support stuff
[18:19] <Overdom> Maning the support email?
[18:20] <OverFuk> yeah
[18:20] <OverFuk> and the constant flow of PMs
[18:20] <Overdom> busy huh
[18:20] <OverFuk> yeah, but not so busy we can't have fun at the same time
[18:21] <Overdom> Awesome.
[18:21] <OverFuk> this time last year we'd have all been sacked for stuff like that
[18:21] <OverFuk> NO FUN ALLOWED :M<  NOT PROFESSIONAL
[18:21] <Overdom> I thought last year was more fun
[18:21] <Overdom> but i guess stuff wasn't really getting done
[18:22] <OverFuk> not from our side, constant arguing, some staff being total douches (lol they got shitcanned) and being  forced to behave
[18:22] <@broverrave> (gman amirite)
[18:22] <Overdom> (urite)
[18:22] <OverFuk> not specifically, but yeah
[18:23] <OverFuk> a pair of ex AT members were the main issue
[18:23] <Overdom> Ohhhhh
[18:23] <Overdom> I think i know who you are talking about.
[18:23] <OverFuk> i think everyone does
[18:23] <OverFuk> still fun to wind up chac about it all
[18:24] <Overdom> HA
[18:24] <Overdom> oh chac...
[18:24] <Overdom> he sucks
[18:24] <Overdom> but anyway
[18:24] <Overdom> Do you have anything to tell the nice people?
[18:25] <OverFuk> Contact KiTFoX - he's ignoring his PMs ATM so spam the shit outa him cos he loves it
[18:25] <Overdom> Hear that kit? Get to work faggot.
[18:25] <OverFuk> he's gonna be maaaaad  (again)  X'D
