What happened to the money made from Project Greenleaf?

April 13, 2012 - 6:45pm — Rutilus
And when was the last time we had something new implemented into the Forest?

Just wondering.

Edit: I'd also love to hear people's opinions on whether or not we're ever going to be 'gifted' with new set pieces, or a new area of the forest, etc etc, because it really doesn't seem likely to me - particularly now that we technically have to pay for TEF.

What about daily grocery

What about daily grocery shopping? There was no fortune made from that project.

I also doubt new things will implemented, perhaps some glitches will get fixed. It really costs far more to get a new area in the forest then the few euro's project greenleaf brought in. Same goes for new antler or mask meshes, if you ask me. Pelts, I'm not sure. Who knows.

Still it's a little silly to ask them to spend a lot of money on a game that, well, brings them none, and now even costs them to keep up. We can be very grateful it IS still running.

This.

I completely agree with Misako's take on things here. Right now I am just glad the game still works, rather than wanting something new.

I think, since so many people

I think, since so many people want new content it would be nice to get a solid price point for how much a new set piece would cost. Member generated designs could then be put forward and the community could vote and bid money towards designs they want implemented. When enough money towards a design is collected, the piece goes into production and becomes a part of the game.

Hello I'm right next to you

Hello I'm right next to you |:

Anyway, to be honest I've been here a while and not seen a new set for years. It's saddening, the money for project greenleaf seemed as if it went nowhere really.

...Perhaps they could charge individually for each pelt, also.
If someone wants new pelts, masks, or antlers that bad I'm sure they'll pay for it.

Both this idea and ravynn's are interesting. Hm. I feel like the community would be fine with pitching in for a new feature if we knew how much it'd cost. ouo
Even if they wouldn't, I'd love to see how much it'd cost anyway.

I'm with the original post in

I'm with the original post in that before I agree to supply money for something I do need at least a general guideline for where that money is going to go. I think if Tale of Tales shared that info, it would prevent members who have donated in the past and who haven't gotten the changes or benefits they were expecting from feeling cheated or taken advantage of. Even just saying how much exactly they have received vs how much is still needed (like they have done recently with the monthly server subscriptions) seems to have made a big improvement in the number of members donating!

I will happily pay for new

I will happily pay for new pelts. I want them so damn much. :/

Yeah, Terabetha's suggestion

Yeah, Terabetha's suggestion sounds really cool. I'm not sure if they'd be able to give a fixed price since they probably vary quite a bit, but at least an estimated number.

It would be cool if we could ask them over at the Save The Forest thread whether that'd be a possibility. ((and hope there's no 'that's not TEF enough' because in all honesty, I wouldn't be able to understand that one))
If enough people would be ready to pitch in, then why not?

Supporting that idea. ouo I'd

Supporting that idea. ouo I'd see if I could find any money, even if it's unlikely. >> I think it's interesting! Besides, it'd be worth a try to see if the community would receive it well if M&A implemented it. (Plus I'd love to have new things, naturally. Sticking out tongue)
