It was simple. A player could spend $1 (or maybe even less?) to broadcast a text message to every player's chat. Since it was a PVP game, it's not hard to see the appeal here and the main use case of talking trash to other players/guilds.
The best and wildest game monetization feature ever made was almost 20 years ago, unsurprisingly, in a PVP MMO:🧵
But if someone wanted to send a message within a few minutes of the previous broadcast, the cost doubled. There was no cap on this and the timer reset with each message sent.
@Gaiazelle The dump was clumped.
@Gaiazelle As long as they all know to hang out under its butt, you'll be fine!
@subtractem No shame!
Bunch of fresh, undergeared 20s vs Ashava ....
The graveyard rush left us very dead and it very alive at the end of the 15minutes.
@subtractem CB hits like a shotgun truck!
Ps upgrade your potion...
@EricaFails The only way I could justify it was to do a Barbie movie tie-in themed airbnb "experience"
@EricaFails So many people have sent me this listing...
@TerranGregory *sniff* the best game.
@kane I've had decent luck with (long running, like years) searches on for a few things that have been long out of print.
I couldn't find any screenshots from the REALLY weird stuff we'd built in the past. (wru Hobo Attack?!!)

@Pawl_Murray embrace the yogawear lifestyle, paul... prana and lululemon make up a shocking amount of my pants and shorts at this point (also patagonia because ride or die).
@smuray Didn't see that coming... Wild!
@NormNazaroff Might be entirely rose colored glasses but the first days we were in there, it hit us deep with old timey Asherons Call exploration vibes. "Whoa what's this place? What's down here? Loot?!? We must delve deep!"
@NormNazaroff I meant more the dungeons in rock piles and such but yeah
@NormNazaroff Is it a gimme to say Valheim et al?
@Pawl_Murray Only the shapeliest screens for you.
