The problem with this is, the code would have to be more generic and couldn't include a lot of other mods (those authors would demand removal of their mods from this UI). People get touchy, and have started heated discussions in the past when this subject came up. Good luck getting it to fly. |

My logic for this is that if you just pay a flat fee and want lifetime free updates, that's an unreasonable expectation. The only way the coder has incentive to continue coding (apart from their sense of integrity) is that they will continue receiving periodic payments to do so. This also opens the door to more customers, since a lot of people can't afford/justify a high initial price. In addition, if something comes up in the coder's life and they can't continue with their work, then they're not on the hook forever and no one could be justified in bad-mouthing them for having discontinued development.
Anyway, please put me down if you ever consider this, Mazzle (or anyone you designate to do this--profit sharing perhaps?). I'd pay at least $5/month not to have the hassle of having to re-do all my buttons and everything else everytime there's a big patch. The closest UI that I've found that configures things for you is Arkive, but it's still missing my biggest pet-peeve, which is having to actually place all my buttons and bindings in a logical manner on my 5 (soon to be 8) different toons. |

I am not sure how it works, but the Carbonite addon verifies the primary account when there are updates. You have to log in with the primary character you registered with (and on the specific server) for it to fully function.
Again, not sure how they have it working, but at least there are additional examples of this happening and if someone pirates it and shares it with their friends, it will not matter, since it has to be verified in-game. |

I know this may seem really spammish, i completely realise that, but please just understand that its late at night right now, and dont have time to read through millions of posts.
But what are the updates on having MazzleUI?? Is it not happening anymore?? Are there actually people trying to make it work as we speak?? If so, is there much progress?? If so, how long you think it will take?? Sorry if this question has been spammed everywhere, but i just really need to know, cant deal with WoW without the mazzleUI . |

As far as the alternatives, they're just look-alikes. They miss the most important Mazzle component: the Mazzifier, especially the auto-config button layout. I hate having to redo my button layouts on all my toons, especially the ones with stances/forms. I'm seriously considering cancelling my WoW subscription, since I've barely played since Mazzle broke last. |

It's hard to charge a fee for something that is dependent on other peoples work, and not expect them to be cut in. If mazzle would be on a charge basis, what would the charge be for ? How do you say to other developers, sorry your mod I use and make money on is less important than that mod.
This would only be viable if everything is done in house. Therefore this will not happen. The mazzifier itself is fantastic piece of work, but it's there to set up other mods. For the pay option to be viable it would have to be a tool that can set up a more complete list of ad ons (not fixed ones). Last edited by Raegormar : 11-18-08 at 02:58 AM. |

I feel it necessary to post my indignation to your quote. There are people that play that are recovering crack addicts and find you analogy quite offensive. Next time you might want to think before you post.

Actually, it's not that I'm against "pain," I'm against tedium. This game is supposed to be fun, but the abysmal blizzard UI and the constant change in the addon scene makes it a chore. Everytime there's a new patch or a new version of a UI, they recommend to start from scratch. It takes me 2+ hours to set up each of my toons. It's just not worth it. During that time, if I'm going to be working (which is basically what that is) I might as well be making money for it. So, I'd rather pay someone to treat it like a job than rely on these people who do it on their off time, and as a result, take forever. Last edited by ibnuts : 11-18-08 at 05:39 PM. |

It's a touchy subject though, so please, anyone coming into this, please play nice on the forums. |

+1 to worth paying for.
Not a 1 time fee, or a monthly fee.
But a per major patch fee. I'd pay $20 per major patch for mazzle. (not that many cheap ass pirating wow hooligans would, but i would) Not insisting or anything, just my thoughts. I'll keep an eye on here for progress, the old UI makes baby jesus cry. is there a pay pal or something that i can donate some to the devs who are working on it now? ok well that's it, keep up the good work, and thanks for all of it such far. |

So you created an account, and your first post on here is to say that the rest of the world can no longer use the expression crack addict because you are a recovering one? Are the recovering crack addicts the ones that flood trade chat? I feel it necessary to post my indignation that your post in this thread has nothing to do with the UI at all. Just ignore it and move on. </opinion> |
