It's stupid beyond stupid. WE HAVE TO PAY JUST TO GET LITTLE stuffTY FEATUREZ?!?!?! FUUUUUUUU-

(Tophius really deserves an award or something...)
And Ephialtes deserves nothing?

Here's this: This will not work. Sorry. People will not pay you more money than they payed Badspot.  You should not be giving admin and access to beta servers because they paid you money. I also agree with Magick about this possibly raising legal issues. Note, I never said that your work is worth nothing. You do decent work however blockland is not for making money. Why would you deserve money any more than a number of our valued addon-makers? (Tophius really deserves an award or something...)


Well, it is optional, I guarantee that many respected add on makers accept donations, this is the same idea except you also get benefits.

Think of it this way.

It's strictly illegal.

People are not going to pay to play in your server when they can play in another for free. There will be little people in yours, so it isn't like there is some amazing 20 player TDM with a bunch of huge spaceships and lasers flying everywhere.

hink about it like this, people subscribe to games like runescape and WoW because it is a full game with lots of people on it. Subscribing just to play in your server is stupid, as every other server can do what yours does but for free.

Forcing people to pay to play on it will just lead to your server having 0 players all the time.

Also, your computer repair thing? You will face so many legal problems with that about people sending in their stuff and you not knowing how to fix it, and they wasted their money on your service.

I am not forcing people to pay. It gives you extra benefits. And who said that I won't be able to fix it, if I can't however then I send it back for no price.

They can't be "respected" if they ask for "donations"

I was just giving a random example... You know what I meant.

Wow.

Good point. They should be doing this not for money but for fun or the development of skills that may possibly benefit them in the future.

STOP IT ALREADY!

Difference between ask and accept:
Ask
say something in order to obtain an answer or some information

Accept
consent to receive (a thing offered) : he accepted a pen as a present.

Edit: Also if they get money they can get more knowledge or better software to deliver better add-ons.


Negative comment.
Sadly, you do not control what can and cannot be posted. That's kind of Badspot's decision.
