Fun vs Utility
-
Fun commands are entertaining and often humorous commands enjoyed repeatedly by both YouTubers and players alike. They are typically the VIP (1) rank and don’t provide any in-game advantages. Examples include:
- ;poop
- ;icecream
- ;fart
- ;laserEyes
-
Utility commands are commands beneficial to the functioning of the game, and often aid developers with testing. These are most-commonly developed by Lead members. Examples include:
- ;fly
- ;kick/ban
- ;serverLock
- ;message/hint
Importance of Fun Commands
1. Great monetization tool for developers
- Fun commands are often non-abusive, low-rank commands, enjoyed by players, hence are perfect for encouraging users to buy a ‘VIP Admin Commands’ gamepass.
- Our top users are making over $5000 USD a month from selling HD Admin ranks.
2. Make for captivating video titles, thumbnails and gameplay content
- Funny, wacky and relevant commands enable YouTubers to create more engaging admin command videos for their fans
- More YouTube videos on admin commands = more exposure for games with HD Admin = more exposure for HD Admin itself.
3. The most used and enjoyed commands
- Fun commands are the most widely used and enjoyed commands. Going forwards, this opens up more monetisation opportunities (e.g. sellable command packs), enabling us to create a greater variety of features and commands.
