Allow donators to use gaming related names.

Post by Lucius Jones » 14 May 2016, 12:58

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): I am not even a donator but I think this would be a nice perk to get more revenue to keep the server up, Allow the donators to skirt the no celebrity names, but instead only allow gaming name references.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): More money for the server due to more donators

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): I would love this server to flourish and for it to do that it needs money, this may be a terrible Idea but I thought it would be a good thing to bounce off the forum to get some pro's and cons for.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): maybe put a symbol next to the persons name showing them as a donator so no 'he is named solid sneke plz ban'

No
Donators Arent ment to be able to Ignore rules or be above them
This will just start a sort of "Eliticism" for being able to ignore rules,even if its just one

No.
Rules shouldn't be ANY different between donators and regular players, no matter how "minor" these rules are.

Will you stand when the weight is upon you
Or will you go to your knees in fear?

No, no, no
Having donors above the rules is a bad idea. Never happening

I think Apop even said he doesn't want a lot of donors because of tax issues and shit.

No never.

I'd never let donors break the rules.
