Your View; Lets Discuss Donations!

[Fishy 2709]

Have you donated to the server?

No, but I did get Iron VIP from a singing contest.

 

 

 

If so, what made you decide to do such?

For the VIP perks such as LWC and the skill reallocation back in Asulon.

 

 

 

If not, what's stopping you from doing so? 

I don't feel like spending money on this server.

 

 

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be removed? 

The MyPets and Scary Mount plugins. These features make breeding horses and wolves rather pointless because VIPs with access to these perks are able to spawn in spiders that can out compete both max-level horses and wolves.

 

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be added?

Ability to summon or respawn pets listed with /pets view. One of the reason horses are rarely used is because restarts and crashes delete them if you are riding them.

 

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be modified?

Shop plugin should be available to lower level VIPs.

 

 

Of the current donation perks, what is you favorite, and why?

LWC, because I can lock my stuff.

 

 

Of the current donation perks, what is your least favorite, and why?

Grr spiders grr, I want breeding to be a useful profession beyond food collection and keeping a few 'trophy' horses locked away forever.

 

 

And finally, any additional information that you would like to give?

Nope.

[mitto 2312]

Have you donated to the server?

Yes

 

 

If so, what made you decide to do such?

I enjoyed playing on the server and some of the perks seemed very useful

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be removed?

Doner's den

 

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be added?

 

 

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be modified?

I would hopefully like to have a VIP plot some time in the future

 

 

Of the current donation perks, what is you favorite, and why?

I like them all but if I had to pick it's probably my 4 persona

 

 

Of the current donation perks, what is your least favorite, and why?

Scary mount is pretty useless

 

 

And finally, any additional information that you would like to give?

Half of my perks as a donator i never even see, this should be fixed first of all

Of the current donation perks, what is you favorite, and why?

 

Locking chests, it's very useful, and fair.

 

Of the current donation perks, what is your least favorite, and why?

 

"Scary Mount", it makes no sense. And the power to just summon a mount that CAN'T be stolen is just Overpowered and ridiculous.

Have you donated to the server?

 

Yes.

 

If so, what made you decide to do such?

 

To be quite honest, the perks. First donation was Iron and was actually gifted to me back in Anthos just so I could have an extra character card. Gold I donated for because I wanted to be able to make a shop. Currently thinking I might donate for Diamond soon because again, I like the perks it comes with.

 

If not, what's stopping you from doing so?

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be removed?

 

The Hall of Heroes Statue one. Sure donating that much money to the server is quite the achievement, however that doesn't mean your character is important enough to warrant a statue. With all the other perks that rank comes with you really shouldn't need some statue. If your character deserves one then rply try to get one.

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be added?

 

A non-combat pet one would be great for lower donation levels. I stress the non-combat part because I've heard the Aether perk allows their pets to fight and I wouldn't want to take that away from them. My character rply has a pet spider so I would adore having a spider follow me around to represent that. No way do I have $500 on me right now to get it though, I'm still wondering if I have $50 this month ;~;

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be modified?

 

Again, non-combat pet for lower donation levels pls.

 

Of the current donation perks, what is you favorite, and why?

 

Soulbinding and Custom Items. Main reason I want to donate for Diamond is so that way if I'm carrying an item important to my character I don't have to worry. And honestly, I'll probably save up for Bedrock soon after because the ability to custom name things is just too awesome. 

 

Of the current donation perks, what is your least favorite, and why?

 

Hall of Heroes, or just to name something I haven't said yet, the custom tag. It just seems silly.

 

And finally, any additional information that you would like to give?

 

Pets are awesome, especially spiders, $500 is a lotta money and makes me (and my wallet) cry that they get so much cool stuff that it makes me want to actually donate that much, oh and anyone who says you should donate just outta the goodness of your heart and not for the perks is just trying to make themselves look good. Everyone donates for the perks and everyone knows it.

[Jistuma 1996]

Have you donated to the server?

No, but Sky did for me =P
 
If so, what made you decide to do such?

I don't have much money, Sky was nice enough to make a contribution to the server and since he was an Aether VIP already, he made a competition and I got 3rd or something.
 
If not, what's stopping you from doing so?
I don't have money to spare.
 
Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be removed?
The ones I find are pointless, extreme game changing or that players don't really want:

• Donor's Den - Interesting concept for players to pre-build their stuff and be in LOTC as they build stuff outside of RP, but not many use it.
• Minas - I'm just oposed to receiving IG currency with OOC donations.
• Item Packs - You can get Diamond Armor with this, unweighted. And don't tell me it's "Hard" You get 5 items per rank, and even just with Gold VIP I got parts of unweighted Iron Armor.
• VIP Plots - Because they aren't being used.
• Hall of Heros - I just don't see the point.
• Hall of Heros statues - I really don't see the point and they aren't made.

 
Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be added?

• Adding description to items.

 
Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be modified?

• Naming items should be lower VIP perk, but only if descriptions could be added as a VIP perk.
• Limits on LWC, seriously, it's rediculous how I can lock 1000 chest just because. Non VIPs should have 1 lock, and depending on your VIP rank you should get more locks.
• I think there are some things of craftbook that could be changed, such as block types in bridges and doors signs.

 
Of the current donation perks, what is you favorite, and why?
Naming items would be my favorite if I had it. Since I don't, I really like the shops. They look nice and help in a lot of stuff.
 
Of the current donation perks, what is your least favorite, and why?
Item Packs, they give you sometimes impossible to get items for IRL money.

[Alakabam 582]

One thing I'm really sick of hearing (which really isn't staffs or anyones fault) is the thing where you should donate to the server because you want to help the server. Man I could spend $100 on a) premium porn for a year or b) a legitimate game such as Battlefield or Destiny. If you invest that much money into something, you aren't doing it to help something / someone else, you're doing it to get benefits of some kind, wether they be perks or access to a game / high quality 'adult entertainment'.

I take that this message is mainly aimed at the Aether VIP's so I will respond from my point of view. I had first donated to gold to get the regular perks, lwc that kinda stuff. The things that almost seem necessary these days. Then I upgraded to Bedrock after a few months or so. Not even for the perks believe it or not but because I wanted to see to see this server thrive and continue to develop. Again now two years later, after maybe a few months of time played. Which is a ridiculous amount but I'm quite the no-lifer when it comes to pulling all nighters and staying up just to Rp with a particular group or set of people. As I said Aether VIP. I felt like after two years it was time for another contribution in the hope that there would be more media coverage, activity on the Youtube Channel. Aswell as a better host, now not to get started on the horrendous host we migrated to as of a few days ago, but I wanted to see the server once again improve. Maybe even relive something of it's former glory.

The perks that come with Aether aren't that noticeable or atleast in my opinion, sure you have a spawnable mount each restart and a mediocre pet. And some little trail that you can enable but that doesn't compare to the pride and happiness it brings me to support the server. Even if I just help it survive for a few more months I still feel like I have added something to this great place that I have been calling home for years now. In that regard I'd encourage everyone to donate but ofcourse I understand that some players might think it's not worth it or that it just goes to someone else's pockets. But I am here to tell you that if you are in the situation which allows for you to spend cash on things you like, I'd compare it to buying a game but being able to play it even after completion. As I hope there is no real end to the server.

Furthermore I see a lot of comments that don't agree with the current 'Mypets' plugin. I have to agree that having a giant or a blaze would be overpowered but a spider really isn't. Not to mention that it can be killed easily it also benefits me as much as a normal horse, only then spawnable. It's something that is only personal thus I am not able to hand it off or sell it to players as a horse breeder would.

At this I leave the current message, if there are any other questions why I made this 'insane' donation to a minecraft server, please let me know.

[Aryon 679]

-snip-

 

Woah, that's a crazy good response.

 

I honestly meant it more in a joking manner, as to when people tell others that they should only be donating to support the server. I really didn't aim it to anyone in particular, it's not like I'm going to insult someone for supporting a server I love.

[LPT 771]

Have you donated to the server? yes

 

 

 

If so, what made you decide to do such? $500(I'm clinically insane)

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be removed? NONE, add more 

 

 

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be added? Mass book producing

And finally, any additional information that you would like to give? 
Nah

[kingnothing 571]

Have you donated to the server?

 

Nah.

 

If so, what made you decide to do such?

 

Nah. x2

 

If not, what's stopping you from doing so?

 

I don't really feel like spending my own dosh on LoTC, and I have friends who can lock my chests. That's really the only donor perk I want.

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be removed?

 

The silly PvP spider, and the ability to soulbind any more than a single item.

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be added?

 

I think we're mostly good as is.

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be modified?

 

I really think the ability to name items should come at a lower donation tier.

 

Of the current donation perks, what is you favorite, and why?

 

Locks, they don't start up and silly pay to win arguments and they make sense as a donor reward.

 

Of the current donation perks, what is your least favorite, and why?

 

The gosh darn PvP spider, I can't stress it enough how much those things make my head hurt.

 

And finally, any additional information that you would like to give?

 

Remove the PvP spider or die by the blad.

[Elindor 666]

In light of what Alakabam has to say I would want to suggest that donations of $100 or more should have the opportunity of suggesting where they would like their donation funds to go.

[Priceflash 832]

Aether VIPs donated 500 dollars and sure as hell deserve more than what they have. The pets aren't even that good.

[Cassius 32]

Have you donated to the server? Yes, I have one account, I'm a Diamond VIP 

 

If so, what made you decide to do such? I wanted a plot of land. To build a tavern and village like I had before.

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be removed? Removed?! I want my land rights back. I was going to upgrade to Aether, but now I see no reason to do so. 

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be added? Land and mining rights.

 

Of the current donation perks, what do you believe should be modified? Land rights should coming with mining and farming to generate a sort of economy for what ever kingdom you fall under and provide jobs to people.

 

Nexus is so horrible, because it screws donators over, I've seen many plots that people just sit on for no reason.

 

Of the current donation perks, what is you favorite, and why? Locks 

 

Of the current donation perks, what is your least favorite, and why? I feel like what I had before was taken away from me with the new system, for a pile of riles or other knickknacks I barely need. 

 

And finally, any additional information that you would like to give? Adding TP pads for Aether VIP so that we can spread out more in the world and not all chunked in and around Oren. 

 

If another realm is to be made, divide the lands according to race, and build the cloud temple with a buffer area from any kingdom.  

[mitto 2312]

Moved to The Great Library. It shall be sorted into the appropriate category shortly.
