    I understand what you are trying to say, but ultimately, it all boils down to things you cannot prove. You say that by hindering the donors who pay the most, ECC will get more donations. I am new at the community, so I cannot make forecast or trend claims about the popularity, but even if it is going down, there are better ways to get players than by turning against the donors.

    -1 This is almost the same as punishing donors, because they donate. It does not make sense. It would be more natural to give kit users more money for winning sg, because they are the people who support the server, and makes it possible for andrew to keep the server online from month to month.

    Im not saying that I want kit users to win more money, just that it would not make any sense at all to reward players for not donating.

    To me this would be very ubsurd to kill a kitter and get 500 dollars. I'm not talking big money here, I'm talking maybe 20-50 dollars extra.

    I would also like to say that this is just a suggestion. There are a lot of silly suggestions out there guys. But one day one person may think their idea is silly, and will not say it. That idea could revolutionize everything. One night I randomly thought about this idea and spurted it all out before I forgot it. Maybe it will get put into Eco or maybe it won't! But the point is that it is a suggestion, not something that means I am a careless person or have a particular negative attitude toward something. Maybe someone reading this will suddenly come up with an idea, waking up in the middle of the night with a wonderful suggestion!

    Please do not post something negative toward someone on my thread. If you think someone's attitude is annoying/mean/etc, please contact an admin/moderator.

    I guess your post has some truth in it.. in the real world you really do have to have money which equals power. What would be nice if that view could be changed on EcoCityCraft

    The server revolves around money though. Right?

    You are certainly right, though I have though over and over what it would be like to just not let people pay me for stuff... sell free plots, etc. Then I think about money and that thought soon washes away.

    It ultimately doesn't matter what all the players want to do. It all boils down to the server making money. If the server cannot make money by doing x thing, x thing will not happen. Now, paying attention to player requests is certainly required in order for the server to make money, but if every last user had their dream experience, it would be because they (or someone else) paid for it to happen.

    This is a hardcore economy server, right? The reason most players are here is because the economy is more realistic here. The server could spawn 1 billion ECD to everyone if that is what everyone wants. The thing is, the server is made for people to feel less powerful with less money, and not everyone understands this.

    No, it is just that what if there were some people who did not care about money? There are a few people in the real world who would rip the shirt off their backs to clothe another family. There are certainly people like that in EcoCityCraft. I do not think I can put into words what I am thinking...

    I couldn't disagree more.

    It ruins the game but the the simple reason why people still play SG when they are aware that there are OP kit users out there is because they are planning to leave the game once they find out there is an OP kit user playing.

    I am certain kit users are in the majority of the SG matches during the daytime and especially on weekends.

    That is only what you think, everyone has different ideas and claims.

    You could be the one that doesn't understand.

    "Hardcore economy" What do you think that means?

    And its not about me not understanding, I'm just saying what the server actually IS. This is just facts, not opinions.

    I don't think it is realistic if real life disagrees with your claim about ECC. Your claim about ECC is that wealth leads to power. It is significantly different in real life. Wealth in real life does not guarantee power.

    Are you sure gamers that are rich in ECC are plutocrats?

    Your claim is only your claim, when people disagree, it doesn't mean they are dumber than you. It doesn't mean they simply don't understand.

    Your claim was not a fact.

    It is an opinion.

    This isn't a reward for players that don't donate.

    It is only a narrow opportunity. (I don't play SG)
