Donate option
« on: February 01, 2012, 01:49:49 pm »
Hello there,
Good month to everyone.

I was thinking today during my Managerial Accounting class, about a new option for donating. I dont know it that would be functional. its the Pay Safe Cards that you get from optional spots.
I dont know if Optical could establish a payment like this, but for me its very familiar and I could use it to make small-amount donations to the server.

But, as each one of the other choices has to have a benefit for the user.
I suggest to 2 things. I dont know which is easier or better.

To give e.g. $10 to the server and to get $80,000 on game currency. About the amount, we can decide later. Or, to give more options, like spawns of mobs, etc.

I would appreciate an answer of Optical to this topic, and his thoughts about that.
But, also, from any other user of that player.

Thank you,
Spamarian

In game currency has been a talked about donation reward. But $80,000 is way to much for just $10
(atleast for USD, don't know about any other currency)
I would say $10 USD should get you $3000 in game money.

$3,000 is super easy to get, I could get that in 5 minutes or less. I think $80,000 is good. Think of a minimum wage job, that is about 7.50 USD, and think about how much money you can get in an hour. For me, I could get $80,000 easy if I wanted to.

I challenge you to get $80000 in an hour.

I dont know what Mr does and he has such a balance, but its wierd enough.
$80,000 you can't have them in one hour, with new found material. I will kill myself if you do that. I spent the whole weekend, 14 hours a day or even more to rais emy balance 23000+$.

Anyway, I would like to know, if a donation option with pay safe card could be available. Believe me Optical, such an option, is much easier than a prepaid. Remember as an extra that, to debit a P.C. you give a fee. For me, its 2 Euro. If I want to spend, I dont want to have extra fees. With Pay-Safe, I dont..

Because you sell things for about 1/4 of their value, never sell things to the market, don't follow market demands... Need I say more?

I'm pretty sure that's what he means.

You sell stuff cheaper than market, when you can easily sell them to the market and get more.

Maybe I over exaggerated. But isn't that what makes people want to donate? They get more from their money?

I would think he means that by offering players ingame money for donating, it acts as an incentive to donate.

 I've been on a few servers but never stayed as I didn't like them, but some of them offered ranks for donating depending on how much they donated.
 By donating they got special perks, like the ability to spawn some things and fly ect, so offering money would more than likely result in more donations being made.

 Just how I saw it.

This is probably only topic about donation and option,and i have suggestion about donating.We all know that in some country PayPal dont work very good or not working at all and that in some it is hard to get credit cards if u work for minimal paymet (i'm from Croatia and on minimal even i earn more than the bank can see  :( )
So my suggestion would be : to add more payment/donation options for mobile like one i use a lot is Onebip, but there are also others which would allow us unlucky ones to contribute in RL as inside the VL of minecraft  ;) with our cellphones if there is no other option for us.......this includes kids from my state cos minimal age to get credit card or any other card is 18 and paycheck that can justify use of one

P.S:it was not my choice to work for registered minimal....that is just what almoust every employer do in my country just to pay less to the state and to screw our lives >:(              removing us from option of getting credit cards or loans or similiar things
