Hydra 515 Share Posted March 26, 2016 27 minutes ago, Renn said: Actually, Remember: Donating does not exclude you from having to follow the Lord of the Craft's rules or from having to adhere to the Terms of Service. We will not ever revoke donation ranks, however if you are banned you will not receive access to the perks nor will you be refunded. We never refund donations - they are a donation, not a product you've purchased.".. they are a donation, not a product you've purchased." While it's given in the context of refunding, it still applies to the topic. Donations are donations. If they wanted to, all perks could be revoked, and no legal action could follow. However, they're not that mean :P. Trust me Fam, lots of people phrase thing is different ways. You don't have to pay taxes on donations, but really it's an exchange just like everything else I trade my money you give me advantage over other players with "perks". Now it's true lotc phrased it in such a way no legal action could be taken against them, we all know revoking perks would make for a very upset percentage of the server who "donated" payed for having access to lwc and shops Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

=Nkruma= 65 Share Posted March 26, 2016 People who payed 100+ I feel bad for you. Next time I make a purchase from any Minecraft server I'll make sure they are reliable. RIP TYTHUS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandan 1452 Share Posted March 26, 2016 4 minutes ago, Harold said: Well, I think we as a community should accept this change with a brave face and see what comes, I have the utmost belief that Telanir and the team will do what they can under the circumstances. You have my full support. This is nobodies fault but Microsoft's, who should realize that enforcing this will kill all the decent Minecraft servers out there that made it through the years. We do need to comply, however shitty it may be. **** Microsoft. This, is rather true. Although many positive perks could potentially be lost as donator perk what we can only do is provide you with more, interesting and updated perks. These may take a couple months to come to light, or maybe less.. Its rather difficult to say at this time. However both for your benefit and the server as a whole we'll need t find a new way to provide interesting bonuses usually unaccessible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowbill 493 Share Posted March 26, 2016 6 hours ago, 吳憾戰士14 said: Well we can't blame you guys for this one. But may I ask, what kind of donations will stay, and how will LOTC make enough revenue to keep running? If I remember correctly back when this entire thing was heating up, there would be no perks that would allow a greater advantage over a non-paying user (special kits in pvp, extra gamemodes for minigame people) so I'm not sure what's going to change...

The Real Burger 20 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I'm assuming Mojang wants you to practically remove all the donation perks but as far as I am aware they only care about ingame, maybe you could give the donators some more forum benefits? Doubt they'd have the same pull as the IG benefits though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BonesOfTheEarth 2252 Share Posted March 26, 2016 You can literally just.. have them donate for free, and then go and 'give them for free' special perks, yeah? And no money is passed when giving them perks, technically. Noone can say ****. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Textarea 719 Share Posted March 26, 2016 can i have access to the LWC plugin for free now? i didn't want to pay $25 or whatever so i had other people inconveniently lock stuff for me... EDIT: you can even make it so that you start out with 5 LWC locks and gain 1 LWC lock per 10 hours on your persona :) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Song Druid 1486 Share Posted March 28, 2016 I seriously doubt there will be any change in server upkeep. If other servers are being approached too there would be little to no point for people to leave LotC for other servers for perks. And if perks were all that were keeping players from LotC because of donations we might see an increase in membership and thus more ad revenue. But also I'm bad at math Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultan 3953 Share Posted March 30, 2016 >> Has 500 VIP on three accounts.. Maybe you can make some cosmetic perks? Half of the high level perks have been broken for a long time now. Land plots, VIP claim. And I personally never use the shop plugin or ss thing so.. I would not mind at all some visual Perks. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
