Donations Thread

[Sektor]

This topic is to motivate not just red but the blue community. The idea is as follows.

Every month the administration decides what the donation goal for red and blue would be by the end of the month. If both sides reaches their goal both servers get special temporary bonus.

Example: Exp bonus, add monsters in zones players never go to where they can xp.

Need more brain storming on other examples.

I used to donate quite a bit until I kept getting the "this is a free server so take it up the ass" type response over and over. Mellowyellow made a troll petition that I ran a RMT ring and I got banned for a week while they investigated it ( which I think you of all people sektor can find lol). I was repeatedly given the "Fuck You" approach in the petition. I never donated again after that never even got an apology.

[Zade]

could be construed as performing services for donations (give money, get loot). not likely :P but you should donate out of the goodness of your hearts

[mtb tripper]

[Slathar]

FTFY - Zade

[Zade]

I see what you did there. I dont get shit except the satisfaction of helping you all :) thank you for your affection! Life is good

I know this logic might be hard for you to comprehend but someone prolly won't donate for services if they get treated poorly just like you wouldn't tip for bad service. Thanks for confirming your nut higher status tho.

This logic might be hard for you to comprehend. No one gives a shit about you and your opinions.

sloot got banned while they investigated for RMT, seems like u got treated the same way anyone else would if someone accused u of RMT. looks like u wanted to remain unbanned while they investigated. That would be preferential treatment and GM favortism.

It wasn't so much the ban per say as much as the way it was presented to me in the "fuck you" approach. Thanks for playing tho.

[Agatha]

always fun to play against u HB, also props on the 1 sentence reply ~

[heartbrand]

I'll try one more time since apparently some people real dumb. No one is asking for special privileges for donating, well at least I'm not though apparently sektor is lol. What I'm saying is I'm not going to donate if I'm treated like shit. Thanks pal

[Nirgun]

I'll start donating when Rogean & nilbog decide to update stock-eqemu code so we don't have problems like this; one server to play on.

Cool idea. I would like someway to motivate the devs to get some things desperatly needed on this server done but the ways they legally get money limit this.

They could probably make "t-shirts" or something else that is proprietary and does not infringe upon copyright laws to do something like this, but it doesn't seem like that is their intention or it would have been done already.

Looking at all of these threads, it is interesting to see how many people say they are willing to donate for change, a new server, fixes, etc. People who understand the devs do this as a hobby, but also realize money talks.

I have to wonder if they were donating already if these wouldn't already have happened. Who knows.

If you stop treating everyone like shit, Heartbrand will donate again

Go spend some money on your girlfriend or something. Sektors real life drug dealer in Philly or what?

[Twain]

Word is, $ektor got on EZ server and was asking how he pays for gear/accounts. LOL

[Fentanyl]

I dont have any problems with Sektor but he always reminded me of these youngsters I used to run into in the druggie scene who have rich grandparents. These dudes would buy up a cache of drugs and pretend to be drug dealers and flash their material stuff like they'd made it from bein' hustlers n shit. A lot of people went along with it and fed their ego-line because they wanted free drugs but pretty much everyone knew the fellers didnt need to sell no fuckin' thang cause grandpappy n grandmammy steady dumpin funds into that account, boyeee.

EQ addiction > Drug addiction.

I could be very wrong though, maybe Sektors is the go-to-IT-wiz kid at the corporate office pullin' that salary. Who knows...

[Fentanyl]

...Forgot to mention, UNLIKE those aforementioned kids, Sektors is a young man of incredible integrity and propriety and would never defile his moral fortitude with such filthy involvement in something like a Real Money Transfer.

I know he's traded some in game platinum for things, indeed, indeed. But that was more like the kind well-off man who pays the local troubled kids to clean up one of his rental properties... It was more about being helpful than about receiving something for himself.
