Author Topic: Donation System online (Read 1071 times)

Dear Community.

We installed a donation system to this forum. Now you can see the actual financial status of our mission.

The following usergroups have no access to this cash system because of "sensitive" bank account informations:

Guests
Banned Member
Registered Members
Everyone (general group)

FAQ
- I cannot see the Cash-Box. How can I get access to?
  [expander]First let me explain the functioning. You have to apply to the usergroup donators. Please give us an information in your app how much you donated! After we checked the application (informal), we accept it and you can access the system. Then you can click on donate via paypal, or you can see the bank account informations for a manual transfer.[/expander]
- I donated, what's now?
  [expander]After we checked your transfer, we add you to the pay-in list and alter the date till the donations expires (1st of following month).[/expander]
- What if I do not donate again?
  [expander]You will get removed from the donators group.[/expander]
- Do the donators group have special rights in the forum?
  [expander]Yes, only this group is able to use a signature, can change their username (every 14 days) and can choose their own user rank. Some other advantages will follow soon.[/expander]
- Do the donators have special rights in the server?
  [expander]Not yet, but the donation is used to pay the server every month. Honest members donate even they do not get anything. [/expander]

More questions?
Let me know here.

And please remember: The actual amount is not the accumulated value for today!
In the next few days we will reorganize the list and put in the donations since april. I will give you an information again when the amount is correct and "ready to use".

The following members are able to alter the cash-box

Sweet thing. Even though I think you should get something in the server,even if its just something you can get anyway. 50 Nitro,Alcohol or something.

We think about to bring back the reward system back, but more coordinated.
But this is under heavy construction and I will not promise this system will come back. But this cash system is the first step to be more transparent to the donators.

Well,maybe change the reward system to shops.

So the donators get a special Shop where there can buy stuff.

Advantages : Even if you donate you still would need ingame money.
Avaible 24/7
No Admin or such needed,cant be abused.

Disadvantages : May be a bit hard to script.

We completed the donator list for last month and the beginning of this one. The shown amount is right, but not up-to-date now. Not included is the last week, we are on it.

Stay tuned.

I like the item shop idea... reduced rates should apply, and no special/restricted weapons should be sold there. I could pay 5 USD/mo for a while most likely starting next month. I don't mind either way as long as the server's around, though SL never worked for me (SLR on ArmA-RPG does) and am always on RP-Mods CL :-)

We have no "item shop" and we will never have an "item shop".

You can only visit the cash box when you are in the usergroup. When you are not registered, you cannot visit the cash box.

Banned on gamerserver does not mean banned in the community.
And when you are banned in the forums, your account is locked, in heavy cases your IP too. But banning IP is just hunting a ghost.

FYI: paypal does not offer any textfields for leaving comments on donations.
Means: you probably wont know which community user just donated.

You could go by e-mail address but some people may use a different e-mail address in their paypal account than in this forums.
