Title: Catalyst Gaming Store

Over the last few weeks, Somone77 and myself have been working on something we call "CG Store". Its a whole new way of donating, and it's sure as hell is a lot more efficient than the old method.
It's been going through a lot of tests lately, and it's finally ready to open up, and be integrated with our forum and servers.

The old and slow donation system as we know it is now the past. With the CG Store, you can donate instantly for what you please. You can buy gold member, vip, and upgrade from vip to gold via a few simple clicks on the forum.

Via the in-game store that I've coded, you can now donate in-game by either pressing F7 to open the store, or typing !store in the chat. Either will open the store. In-game you can purchase gold member, vip, and vip to gold. Plus the ingame store also offers in-game money donations, as well as purchasing titles for yourself, or your friend.

With the store everything is instant. In-game store, and the forum store both has instant purchases so you will never have to wait for a developer to activate your benefits.

The store can you find by navigating to the "Store" tab on the top, the drop down box has two options to either buy credits, or spend them. You will of course want to buy credits before you can spend them. Theres many different packages which includes x amount of credits. So theres a package for every use.

The store can currently be found on the forums and our OCRP server. In about an hour, you will be able to find it on GMR2 as well as HRP. It will not be put onto HL2RP as you are not able to buy money on that server. If you want gold member, and you only play HL2RP, you will just purchase it via the forums. So no harm done there.
Have fun pranking your friends with funny titles, but keep in mind, if they are to rough, they will be removed without a chance for a refund of your credits. So think before you apply the title to either yourself, or a friend.

In case of a charge back, you will permanently banned from all CG servers.

This was also the reason for our maintenance mode to be activated. We hope you will just bear with that.

Works really well and takes away the hassle of waiting for a long time for your benefits to be active. In game menu makes it even easier to get what you need. Also really like the idea of custom titles, Will be interesting to see what people come up with.

Or you can change your bind, because I highly doubt someone would change a whole gamemode and update it again just because 1 out of 17000 players on this community already uses the key.

I know you just asked. And I provided the answer for you. What's the problem?

Yes. Taking your money back after receiving an item is stealing, so the thief's punishment is a ban.
