Just wondering.....
 

I have always wondered just how much this server has made over the years in donations.....

do you guys frequently donate?

I'm posting this in RnF just as a precaution because I know how people can get fired up quickly and would rather not have it moved here anyways lol.

I heard BDA doesnt donate.

I know this is RnF, but I highly doubt staff is going to share their books. I believe that would provide one thing, scrutiny.

Who the hell wants that?

hahaha

I was just curious. I know that just scrolling around some of the posts lately i see one thing VERY commonly, and that is guides or GM's coming in and saying "IT'S FREE, WE DON"T WORK FOR YOU"

I get that, and essentially this is a free server. I just wanted to see just how much in donations was being made and VS the ammount needed to run the server.

Again, just curious.

If the server was lucrative then Rogean wouldn't need to keep an actual job and could employ his server staff so they too wouldn't have to work a real job.

I don't know that this server is supposed to replace an actual job lol. I was just wondering what kind of $$ it brought in. I know some of the Ultima Online servers were bringing in thousands a month in donations.

Any donations here probably aren't much at all. You'd get more money streaming P99 as a job than actually running a server of it.

Plus the donations they do get are put back to the server hosting costs.

I may have appeared to come off the wrong way there. I was just making statements. No harm meant. I understand you are curious. Cheers mate.

Going back and thinking about it those UO servers that were making the big bucks were also selling things such as mounts and things for in game use. I bet that is were alot of the money came from.
