My Own World

Hi all,

I want to buy my own world. I decided I was going to buy it, but I still want the Sales Team, or the people that have a world, or Mit, to tell me what the costs are.

And I cant leave my computer on day and night, so I need someone that hosts the world. Is it able to set it on my computer, configure it, then put it on someone else's computer.

Zaroba? You hosted islands in 0399x and can you also host my world?
.... and is that able, to set the world on different computer?

no i mean, i suppose your computer has an other IP adress then mine. is it able to configure it on my computer and then send it to you, zar?
and when is it going to be possible to buy my own world?

It should be possible to do this. If Zar has a copy of the programa nd so do you, you should be able to set up a world and then use the 'Export world' capability to send this to Zar who can then just unpack the world into a shell of the program. No worries.

As for pricing, there was something about £50 but I can't remember more'n that.

Damn them for not teaching me the metrix system. American Schools bite, but at lest we dont ahve to deal with Orange and TV licenes.

it's about $90 - http://www.xe.com/ucc.

While it may seem a lot, I can't rely on them figures. Ah well.

I dont think its alot at all. Infact its a better price then I had expected. I guess Im not too bad, I thought it converted to about $100, but relaly considering thats for a whole year (right) thats not bad at all.

I dont ahve the skill sor the desire to run an island but I would be willing to at that price.

EDIT: Wow, the pund is really strong at the moment. 1.8 dollars to the pound. That's really quite good, considering it's sually 1.5...

The pound isn't really strong, it's just the past 6 months the dollar has become really weak.

1$ = about €1

dazjorz · Post by **dazjorz** » Tue Apr 20, 2004 3:21 pm

So I have to pay around 75 euro per year. Since I earn 16,50 euro per month (thats not much i know), I earn a little 200 euro per year. That must be okay.

:Warning

: I am not accepting any higher as gods (except for myself

):!::!:

Does anyone has a way for me to earn any money?

EDIT: I may use Google AdSense on my website, http://www.a-tractor.tk, ... but you all have to click all ads each day! That way i'll earn money, then I may even make a website for it on www.worldname.com or something.

When i spoke to Mit he said it would be just one payment for a world? Has it been changed to an annual fee? If its an annual fee i will most certainly have to drop out of buying one...

id jus like to point out that this is all completely idle speculation. :]
I havent decided on any prices for the world yet, or even whether its gonna be sold or not. I doubt it'll be as much as £75 per year anyway.
