Benefits for Donation/Payment (SA:MP Discussion)

[ClazzyJogel]

What the hell are you talking about?
The current servers are rock solid, the only instability we had was due to DDOS attacks, which is why we moved to a protected server.

Since we started on this IP, the box has been running for 3 months without a single restart, if you wish to call that instable be my guest.
Similar the web server is only restarting for maintenance and has been fullly available.

On the current server script lag has mostly been non-existent.
I have no idea who is spreading these lies, and find it even more amusing people are believing it and making suggestions while they seem not to be able to know reality.

We ban anyone who is selling in-game money or benefits and that will remain.

Have you even taken a look recently at your own server?

Go ingame and take a look yourself.

It was said dozens of times that lags issues will be solved with RS5. Unless it was a DDoS, which I doubt.

[Gandalf]

People often complain of lag that is perfectly explainable by actions of developers or attacks.

[Marcel]

Well same applies for the US government, it was based out of the constitution.
There has been 27 changes since its initial.

This is not the US government. This is a privately owned gaming community with a clear vision. I doubt that the vision will be changed, especially on this specific subject. Allowing people to obtain in-game advantages will completely erase any equality, since players from some countries might not be able to purchase anything due to their economic situation or because payment options are unavailable to them.

Just keep us all equal and enjoy the game. If you want to donate to keep Argonath running, that's great, but expect nothing in return except for the gratefulness of the community.

[ClazzyJogel]

What are you talking about? Servers are perfectly fine...

I find this alittle funny, I had to post evidance to make you admit that the servers arent "perfectly fine"

[TiMoN]

Dude it is a game , why would people do something like that ?

They are rich, they run oil fields :>. 

Let me give example, some newbie will give 1000$ IRL money just to be rich. Then he will go to casino, gamble with it and he will lost IRL money, just sayin' so.

EDIT: Also that grandpa on avatar is ugly.

His money yo

[Zaila]

The community leaders can pay for better managers

Now this fucking bullshit is pissing me off. Do you have any fucking idea of what the hell we're doing for the players? All we're getting nowadays is 'the managers are shit and should be removed' but the irony in all this is that no one is giving us any kind of constructive feedback on how we can improve which means i honestly dont give a fuck about what you think about us.

Think about what you're saying as next time you want help from a manager, you might not get it.

Servers are fine, scripts are different thing.

Evidence* you are talking how much server is fucked up, and your grammar is great YO

[ClazzyJogel]

Servers are fine, scripts are different thing.

So that is the excuse? I live in Norway, and I play with a 150 ping with my 25mb/s network.
Well same applies, the community needs an income to overcome its issues wether its script or servers.
And at the same time the benefits of donating can be a motivating factor for activity and success.

[Bundy]

So you're telling me donations will increase the quality of our scripts?

Well, move to Italy, you will have a better ping.

And your ping is our problem? I play on a 1mb/s network with 190 ping but I am not complaining.
Money is not the solution to everything, if you want to help as you claim then why do you need something in return for a donation?
You don't give money to a foundation and then expect something in return do you?

[Rusty]

Server specs are some of the best around, you forget that the scripts may be producing memory leaks which in turn will be slowing down server performance.
