[SA:MP] Donation System

[Gird3r]

I don't want to sound disrespectful, but people who join the forum once per year and the game once per five years don't really have the right to be sceptical on ideas like this one simply, because they won't be aware of the server situation. Server is not what it used to be 5 or 10 years ago. Cheers.

No you are not being disrespectful.

However, this suggestion directly breaks a point in the Argonath Vision, it was made very clear that there would be no offering of ingame advantages.
It kills the spirit of Argonath RPG in my opinion.

If people want to find a solution that's all good. But what is the point if you kill the soul in the process?
If something should be offered, it should purely be on the cosmetic side. That would be at least somewhat of a compromise.

Indeed no one needs $10k or even $100k. If someone is willing to donate it would be because he believes things will change. I suggest removing the in-game rewards and replacing them with donator badge or medals in forum.

People are missing the difference between arguements and constructive feedback...

In this mess I just witnessed there is none of the above.

Server is dead, HQ tries to do something > we bitch on them for 'that's not the right away'.
Server is dead, HQ goes inactive > we bitch on them for 'resign if you ain't doing anything'.
Server is dead, HQ does not know what to do > we bitch on them for 'you are not capable of doing anything'.

Either donate or gtfo, simple as that.

No disrespect to you but the gifts given in return for a donation are not anything major, Most of them can be earned in a 1 hour session of playing the game, The vision is also severely outdated and generally doesn't fit alot of the current circumstances, We still stick to the core Argonath, Just some things need a change.

Yeah, this one seems nice. Or like a mapped board in pershing square that has the players name written out and it stays there for 30 days.

Consider it as a gesture of thanks for donating. Why bother making it an issue which is irrelevant?

What if the donation goes the scripter and the scripter doesn't do his job and ignore all bugs or ideas?

Paid after the work being done, that's how I would have done it.
