I was wondering how much people actually value there NS accounts, i know its kinda a form of insurance or credibility, you know people wont fuck you over in a sale because they will be blacklisted.

i know i would not loose my account over a pair of skis, or some nice goggles, i think its worth more then that.

ready...set...discuss

Well, mine is worth more than yours, because it can go anywhere and ban people and delete things. However, Maximumsushi's is worth the most, because his can melt the internet.

Question!

Does every mod have the same amount of power or are there different tiers?

well if you aren't giving it away / abandoning it so it must have SOME intrinsic value for you.

okay, but it's not a value i can put a price on. that's besides the fact that i'm still using it, so it's not for sale.

what if NS required a user fee? how much would you pay to keep your account?

(I'm not directing this question at you necessarily, but everyone who reads this thread)

wow, good question. i dunno exactly, but my account is pretty valuable to me. it seems like i've had it forever. i would have to say it would take at least a full setup of all new gear to get me to give mine up.

the question was posed more like, if you were gonna get something, like lets say u were gonna jip some n00b in B/s/t and he was gonna come back and trash your rep, how nice of an item would it have to be? i wouldn't do it for a pair of skis, it would have to be a full setup at least.

I wouldnt screw someone over for a pair of skis because I wouln't want the people I know in real life on here to come beat me up or w/e. But I wouldn't pay to have an account but would prolly pay to use the site since it is pretty much all I do at school.

I like NS, but I wouldn't pay to use it. If someone gave me... $100 I'd sell it. Maybe less depending on my level of poverty at the time. Post count and karma don't mean a hell of a lot to me, although I have noticed people tend to pay more attention to posts made by people with large post counts / history on the site. Fortunately how much people on a website pay attention to my idiotic rambling isn't very important to me, either.

Well, all our accounts have the same amount of powers except for dansushi who can melt the internet. However, Doug is the most powerful because that asshole won the sword of grayskull in a poker game, so he can pretty much do whatever he wants.

Ok sounds good, although assuming you are in Idaho, you are 7,984 miles away from me so it will be quite difficult to deliver my burger to me within 15 min of it being cooked

I guess you could come to Australia and then make me a burger when you get here, but American burgers are better.

well im working on making a rocket car that can go close to the speed of light, so since we all know that the closer to speed of light you go, the slower time goes, i can just make the burger here and hop in my lightspeed rocket car, and bring you that burger still warm
word,
im so clever.
