FamCraft Donation Discussion/Questions

Ah I see

Donation Perk Idea: Being able to have the option for a super in game cash prize.
I know the 5$ picks are 50k so how about 9k for each dollar you donate? So people would still go for the picks. I don't know if this would change the economy of the server though.
Tell me what you think.

This is up the admins, so i hope i dont speak before my turn here
I dont think its a great idea to get ingame money for real cash. Main reason is that you create an other way how new money flows into the economy.
If you just put up your pick for trade, its the money that is already in the economy that is getting used (wich is still earned by jobs).
Making more ways how new money can get into they economy may disbalance it.

I think that would create a pretty big inbalance as if you get 9K per $1 donated, you'd have a lot of people who have donated already wanting that.  9K may not seem like much, until you consider that some people would be getting over 1 million added with the top donors easily getting 3 million plus added.

We have discussed the option of selling ingame money for real cash money before and it's always been voted down. As mentioned above, it would dilute the current economy even more than it is now. As it is, donators get tools they have to USE (or sell ingame) to get the money they want. They still have to spend many many hours breaking/building blocks or performing Jobs tasks to get the ingame money. If you think the disparity between the rich and poor on the server is bad now, it would get totally out of control if people could buy money from us.

ur right micah. its so true


and i have a question. where do the money recieved from world edit/donor shop/star gates go??

[micahdg]

It goes into the void. No one keeps it.

[HaydenTheBuilder]

if i send the donation in mail, when will Bk get the donation and i get donor items?

[eGI]

Using the address from the first post in this... he wouldn't cause he moved to New York.

[RealAndrewH]

If I donate 2.50 (bc of the holiday sale) will i get a pick and a nickname?

[micahdg]

Yes, but nicknames cost 100k famcoins for donors.

[Rundrop]

When does the sale end? Didnt know one was going on.

[RealAndrewH]

So do you have to donate 2.50 and 100k famcoins to get a nickname?
Oh and rundrop it ends on the 31st

[Luke_Bruck]

When does the sale end? Didnt know one was going on.

Sale ends midnight of Jan 1st

So do you have to donate 2.50 and 100k famcoins to get a nickname?

If you donate $2.50 you will be the opportunity to purchase a nick anytime for 100k in-game money.

[RealAndrewH]
