Accepting Donations!

We're finally accepting donations!

Image
Our monthly server costs are 79.99 Euros or ~103 US Dollars.

Please feel free to donate as much as you want or feel comfortable with. As a thank you (apart from our eternal gratitude) we offer symbolic benefits to our donators as listed below.

Coloured names on CMP now available!

Donation of at least 3 EUR or 5 USD:
* Personal world; dimensions 256x256x64

Donation of at least 7 EUR or 10 USD:
* Personal world; dimensions 256x256x128
* Custom forum rank (title)

Donation of at least 10 EUR or 15 USD:
* Personal world; dimensions 512x512x128
* Custom forum rank (title)
* Custom colored name on the server


- Personal worlds are a one-time reward and are usable for as long as you please but you need to request a new one if the current one fills up.
- Forum ranks initially last for one month after a donation of 7 EUR or 10 USD and then can be extended for 3 EUR or 5 USD a month.
- Custom colored names initially last for one month after a donation of 10 EUR or 15 USD and then can be extended for 7 EUR or 10 USD a month.

Clarifications:
- Personal worlds: All personal worlds are created hidden, owner-accessible and owner-editable with the donator added to the whitelist. If you want to have more people added to the whitelist or different access/build permissions, please say so. In future we hope to have world-owner functionality so a given user has full control over it no matter what.
- Colored nicknames: We are limited to the standard MineCraft Classic color palette. It would be awesome if you provide your colored nickname suggestions with the color codes listed above.
- Donations above 10 EUR: Your donation balance will be recorded and any overhead accounted for for future benefits. For instance, 20 EUR would result in an overhead of 10 EUR to spend on i.e. a custom forum rank and color-coded nickname later on.

Please note that we really aren't a business here - clarifications are needed but we won't be counting every penny and when in doubt we will make the decision that is best for the user.

Donating does not exempt you from any of our server rules.

This is by no means a "shopping list" - just rewards for people who hopefully want to donate anyways to help us out. All excess money will be used to get a better server package or other community services. We offer full financial transparency and insight into monthly balances.

Please provide your in-game nickname or forum login in the transaction comments. Feel free to notify us of inbound donations in this very thread.

Thanks in advance!

OK, your stuff will be set up tomorrow (and any time-based privileges will be counted from the moment I set them up, of course =).

Thanks a lot for the donations! We are more or less one donation away from covering this month's server costs! <3

Your worlds will be created as u_astelyn1 and u_stopsign1. Tell me if you want any special theme, access or whatever on them.

Ah, Stop_Sign, what do you want for your forum title? ^^

Master of guests and stupid questions.

Also, I realized that purple is the IRC color, so i want to be pure orange instead.

I'm a terrible stop sign.

Not fussed about forum title or coloured name, I'll leave it to lim to do what he wishes to my reputation. :)

But a map would be lovely thank you. :happycreeper:

Also, do you have some monthly fee progress bar planned?

Choose again! There is no orange (for messages) in Classic, only in Beta.

Here's a handy-dandy reference for all who donated:

You'll get two 512x512x128 maps! :3

And yeah, I have a progress bar planned but for now:

The next best server package is 49.99 Euro. I won't be switching immediately this month since we need to see how sustainable the donations are but if everything is fine we might switch next month! And then we can probably set up another game server (to be discussed). The best server package is 69,99 Euro and would give us 8 GB RAM and 4 private cores. We'd see what we can do with that. ^^

P.S. Shankd0g - I kinda assumed you wanted to have your name colored with the #4 red and #1 blue. If you prefer #c red and #9 blue, just tell me. :3
P.P.S. I still made your name purple for now, Stop_SIgn, since I was already on coloring stuff. As there is no orange, feel free to change later.

The donation will start counting from tomorrow, so as to not screw you over. ;-)

Sorry guys, I was doing 4 hours of overtime today and returned home after 22:00... I will set up everything ASAP but please understand the circumstances. :3
And don't forget that I won't start counting any time-based stuff until I actually implement it and everything done AFTER I get from work any given day will count from the next day onwards. :3

Ah, just to make sure, since the transaction IDs seem to be utterly useless as they are different for the seller and buyer (WTF PayPal?).

Who is Mason J.? Is it xKoreanx? :3

P.S. I put 1 and 1 together for the others. ^^
P.P.S. Please, please, PLEEEEASE put in your MC name in the transaction comment - makes it SO easy. :3

The Buyer should have both of the ID's available in the e-mail. I'm pretty sure the 'seller ID' is the one that Lim gets.

OK, implemented everything apart from intertoothh since he didn't say a thing. I will probably have to do some one on one customer service.

WAIT, THAT SOUNDED WRONG! :3
