How about making them part of !shop instead? They can buy the tag of their choice for being active on the TF2SS servers.
I dont see problems with this, at least they cant abuse the tag. We can make a poll, about what premade tags to use by the community.

The overall choice should only be to the admin though...if it were given to both VIP and admin then the admins on the servers is pointless.
What do you mean "admin on the servers is pointless?" The point of admin is not to get free perks. That would completely go against what every admin here said on their application. We should never restrict perks exclusively to admins. If anything, I think !shop or VIP is a good idea in order to give more incentive for players to purchase virtual goods.

Yeah I completely agree.

I think the general idea that we all have here is to add more tags that can be bought from the !shop WITHOUT restricting it to just admins or VIP users.

As much as I'd love to have a specific tag for myself, I find it unfair for the majority. Plus I personally wouldn't use it 99% of the time since I like to go undercover.

The main purpose of adding pre-made tags to VIP is to force people to keep buying VIP.

That would allow us to make more profit through donations (from people who want more credits to use tags.)

If you have VIP, you would be able to do "/chatcolor" and see your desired tag in the drop menu.

That would probably be the best way to do it if this were to be carried out in my opinion.

The detail is that not everyone can afford VIP. If it was able to be bought by normal shop, the VIP time restriction wouldn't stop them from using the tag system. I was seeing the tag system like this:


Tags

1. Remove tag (1)
2. F2P (750)
3. P2P (750)
4. Banana (1000)
5. TF2SS (500)

And if the tags admins want were possible to be added, they could expensive:

6. Strum's Pants (12500)
7. Hamster (12500)
8. etc.


Simply a suggestion. But if this was to be approved (VIP or everyone), there should be a post for the tags that should be available.
I don't bite, so feel free to message me if anything.

Don't forget about Princess! :c or something at least cute. I know there's some anime lovers, so they'll probably want something along those lines.

I haven't read much through the topic, but yes, I do see custom preset and purchasable tags a good call.

But much like our forum Tags, we can have certain ones that are decently small.

We cannot contain Tags that are excessively long, because it actually obstructs your own chat box, even if you type out a full message, and could be potentially highly distracting...

But for now, I'm all up for Purchasable preset tags.

Yeah I see what you mean, We will wait and see if this gets approved, the we can figure out ways to make premade tags shorter.

While I do support this in full, it's completely up to Flying Knife/Death if they feel this should be incorporated.
