Why do people make huge FTOPs or ISTOPS?

[Crura]

I really don't understand this, either they are going to scam ftop or istop, or they aren't going to make anything?

To try and draw a large playerbase, Cosmicpvp did it with their Nebula Galaxy and the winner was said to receive 2.5k USD. The winners never got their prize money because of "Restrictions set upon Cosmic's PayPal prohibiting them sending such a large payment." they were given buycraft in the end lol

I mean, we can thank Ostia for these big ass money prizes, they were one of the first ones to introduce it.

Anyway, it attracts people, especially bigger factions, islands etc.

Ostia had a map that was going to be 4 or 5k, when I talked to owner and after first day he said he got under 1k. Then he refunded everyone cause he didn't want to take the rest from his own pocket. So no, no one does high ftops.

I'm talking about Ostia map 4 or 5... They were the first ones to introduce F-TOP prizes...

And no, it wasn't anything near that back in the day, it was maximum 500$

Yeah I was talking about these past maps. TeNsta has made a lot more than he's giving out.

Only servers that have nothing that makes them stand out try to get players like this. It's sad.

[Steampunk]

people spend big money on big servers to try to make lots of money meaning the server owner gets a lot of money and players making it easyier to sell eventually

 

[Clouse]

Servers with high F-Tops if they can payout and make the money back get alot of rep in the faction community really quickly and alot of big factions will come and thirsty kids that want all that money.
