Author Topic: Donating to Servers  (Read 699 times)

What would you say is the best donation tool?

Also, is it illegal to make it so that the only way someone can join your server is if you donate?

I don't think so, since Minecraft servers do it although not many people will want to donate just to go on a Blockland server  :iceCream:

Sweet, I had an idea for a membership sort of thing for my servers.

Here's a tip: forget that stuff right now.

XD I ment like $1 so you can get into private matches and stuff.

why would somebody pay to go on your server when there are so many others that are free?

Shh shh shhhhhhhhhh don't ruin peoples dreams.

Gonna go out on a limb here and assume that nobody has that dream.

Anyway you are going to have a very low turn out if you charge people to join. However if your server is half decent you could ask for donations and allow those users to have extra features and stuff.

That sounds like a better idea.

That's how most of the decent servers get their donations ;)

The demographic for blockland isn't going to pay for something they can't see.

A VIP system like Danny suggested would work significantly better - and does, on several popular servers.

Make sure the extra features are only gimmicks and DO NOT affect gameplay.

If the server donations arent used to help lower server costs you should be askng for them.

however like said, offering a vip program or something usually attracts people to donating, as long as it doesnt effect the server gameplay
