    Suggestion: EcoCityCraft Commercials

    Reason: I thought it would be a great visual way to let users advertise their in-game products through animations and non-animated visuals.

    Any Other Information: Commercials made by players themselves would be aired at peak time for 50,000 per minute (could change according to andrewkm) and animated ones, perhaps created by a server member, could be 100,000 per minute. (optional). During off-peak time, it would be 25,000 per minute for player-made commercials and 50,000 per minute for animated commercials.
    Link To This Plugin: The commercials could be aired on EcoCityCraft's Twitch Channel, or another live streaming website.

    Good, but the prices are too high. Besides, who would get profit from that?

    to my knowledge i don't think the twitch channel is used that often. Even then it wouldn't be worth it to advertise something for 1 minute if you look at the price. You can put it in trade chat or on the forums for free, so why would you want to put it in a advertisement which takes time to make the advertisement and tons of money to actually buy 1 minute of the stream.

    It is a decent idea but overall the prices for the advertisements need to be alot lower for it to be even worth it.

    I was thinking that based on real life prices, it would be better to price it at these costs. Now removed one 0 from the prices.

    Not many people would be able to get to Twitch and have it load in time to see a commercial. As well, it's a commercial... I doubt many people would bother when they are already annoyed with Trade. :b

    If anything, maybe make a suggestion to Anny for having commercials in NoU.1

    Annyonion already has commercials, however she may have her own operations going on right now.

    Who watches Twitch when they play a game? What's the point? I always get accidentally sucked into my wife's Netflix and don't get things done in game. I wouldn't purposefully watch a stream, movie, etc. to distract myself.

    The streams rarely happen and less people will see it than trade chat in-game. Who would pay a lot of money for that? In fact, shouts are cheaper and more effective.

    Maybe an auction every week for a home page advertisement? I can bet it would take a lot of money out of the economy and a lot of users would want that.
