Proposal to motivate map creators for Heroes 5, but it can also be applied to other parts of the game
The essence of the proposal:
A topic is created in the appropriate section:
requests for creating new maps, scenarios, and campaigns
Any forum member can post a request for creating maps with a specific plot, quests, etc., in this topic. After that, he or other forum members voluntarily contribute donations to motivate those who find time to create this map; any amount can be donated, from 10 to 5000 rubles. Donations are made to a special account belonging to the portal administration or to a forum member trusted by the administration
The map creator who makes the map receives 80-90% of the total amount, while the remaining 10-20% goes to the website administration and covers current expenses: hosting costs, administrative expenses, bonuses for moderators, coordinators, clan leaders, prize funds, etc. If this idea is implemented simultaneously by 2 or 3 map makers (which is unlikely, but possible), the amount will be divided into 2 or 3 parts accordingly.
If no one manages to implement the plan after a long time, the money will be returned, but with a small deduction – 10%, for example. This innovation will help motivate map creators and generally increase the popularity of the game itself.
What do you think about creating a topic in the appropriate section:
requests for creating new maps, scenarios, and campaigns?
This proposal has already been approved by the Forum Creator; all that remains is to find a forum member from Russia whom we can trust with the financial aspect.
Note that there is already a similar topic on the forum:
Accepting requests for creating maps
/topic/5718/
Many forum members, including myself, have left their wishes regarding the creation of new maps in this topic. However, there are many wishes, but only 1% of them have been fulfilled. Why so few?
Creating a map takes a lot of time, which most people simply don't have. Everyone is busy with work and a bunch of everyday problems. Of course, it is possible to find time, but for this, motivation is needed. Otherwise, there will be neither time nor much desire to do it.
That is why I proposed motivating map creators not only with praise but also with money.
