Really not the way LL should go, not even with small steps.
is the steam group boost also p2w?
It doesn't give you any advantage over other players.

I didn't know you have to pay anything in order to join the steam group?
Hmm, I know what will revive LL! Introducing a pay2win feature... great idea.
Just because LL doesn't make profit off of it, nor having a NOTICABLE advantage mean it's not pay-to-win. Your argument is flawed. The advantage is gained by purchasing Discord Nitro, which is overly expensive, and then using that on the Limelight Discord server. You are having to PURCHASE something in order to have the chance of even obtaining the reward, that's pay-to-win.
You also didn't comment on how your statement about joining a steam group has any relation to pay-to-win systems.
If Cole opened his wallet we’d be alright lmao
Jesus, some people can make a scene over literally nothing, chill the fuck out and get real peeps.
Get off your soapboxes and realise that this ain’t major and really is small in the grand scheme of things. Go argue about more important things or better still stop arguing with each other, if this trend of arguing over dumb stuff continues, give it time and there won’t be a Limelight to argue on, just a toxic online battlefield.
Just chill out and realise that this isn’t the start of a pay-to-win Limelight, but just something to boost the community a bit with some incentives for those who do.
Have a great evening, Lamelight!!

Pay to
win.
A 5% boost for xp gain, for a system which
isn't competitive, and reflects
personal gain, is paying to
win?
Come back to me when you get a !slay command, an m249 on spawn, god mode or a mod promotion with membership. Something which is actually paying to gain a competitive advantage over other players.
Remind me how being able to sell donator in game, making 400k for £5, that LL does profit from, isn’t a problem yet a 5% XP boost for something they don’t profit for is?
What a joke, quit fucking whinging. Well done to the team for introducing this.
LL has always technically been P2W, moneypaks exist and always have.
I think we all need to relax. It is fine to air your concerns, as well as give constructive criticism.
But if you take a moment to look at video games, or servers, that have pay to win elements you should see that this is not one. This is pay to skip if anything. You boost the discord server, in return you gain a minor XP boost, which will save you some time.
The fishing skill isn't use competitively. You can't fish somebody to death. Besides money packs are the same principle. Pay to gain money, so that you do not have to grind for it in-game. While game play mechanics should not be changed to facilitate or encourage people to buy such things, which as far as I am aware, is not the case, this was a recent idea, then I personally see no issue with it. And it doesn't fall under the definition of pay to win either way.
