Broadcast: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:20, 27 January 2017

Broadcasting is one of the tools in Growtopia. Broadcasts have a 15 second cooldown time period. /Radio hides all players' broadcasts.

Feb 29th: BALANCE PATCH! Today we've made the following minor adjustments to the game:

-BROADCASTS: Price to /broadcast is now 150 Gems instead of 100, /sb price also adjusted to match (goal: less sb activity)

Requirements for Broadcasts

ALL Broadcasts

Requires level 20+ or supporter rank.

Broadcast

150 Gems

Super Broadcast

Costs 1 gem per 3.33 people (depends on the amount o players online). Previously costed 1 gem per 5 people.

Custom Broadcast

Costs 1 gem per 3.33 people (Minimum: 1001). Previously costed 1 gem per 5 people.

Type of Broadcasts

Broadcast

A broadcast is done by doing /broadcast <message> or /bc "<message>" works for longer messages. This will send your message to 1000 random people for 150 gems, it means you are paying 1.50 gem per 10 people. This is useful when you have a new world and you want to advertise.

Super Broadcast

A super broadcast is done by doing /sb <message>, at a cost of 1 gem per 3.33 people. This will send the broadcast to every online player.

Custom Broadcast

This is done by typing /cb <number of players> <message>, at a cost of 1 gem per 3.33 people. The mininum amount of people you could custom broadcast to is 1001.

Super Duper Broadcast

Super Duper Broadcasts are done by typing /sdb , for the price of 50 Growtokens. This was disabled after P.A.W 2014 due to server issues and being annoying.

What not to broadcast.

As stated in the rules, you aren't allowed to broadcast about drop games, trust tests, casinos, and other betting games. Doing so will get you punished.

Other things you shouldn't broadcast are:

Lying about mods being in your world when they're not will get you punished.

Faking official Growtopia system messages will get you punished. (See image below for reference)

-==What ''NOT'' to broadcast==
-As stated in the Growtopian Gazette, you aren't allowed to broadcast about [[Scams|drop games, trust tests, casinos, and other betting games]]. This will result in a warning and an eventual [[ban]]. You are placing yourself at a higher risk of being banned when you do /sb than when you do /broadcast.

-You shouldn't also broadcast or SB about a mod in your world if a moderator isn't there. Doing so will get you [[Duct Tape|duct-taped]], because you're lying and trying to get [[Growtoken]]s for yourself.

-You shouldn't make fake system message such as god ban or you'll be punished. The image below shows an example:
