Well that's not very good news is it. Don't quite know what it does mean,though it doesn't sound great...
I don't understand. From what I've read, we're screwed? EDIT; Let's talk server monetisation - the follow-up Q+A this. So this basically means the donors are only being limited to the prefix? I'm confused as hell.
RIP IF WE UPDA- o shi+. We've already updated to 1.9.3. The server supports 1.9.x. x is our problem here. RIP SKYBLOCK. (or remove Donor ranks and add Factions).
All Mojang is doing at the moment is making Minecraft less and less fun. We spend hundreds upon hundreds of dollars on ranks only to find that Mojang is the one who goes 'LETS GATECRASH THIS TRMENDOUS PARTY' and starts tracking down on servers who broke the eula! i know. RESORT TO SWEARING #p00t
ULTRA LATE UPDATE: Seems like the blacklisting system in 1.9.3 r3 was removed for unknown reasons.[/QUOTE]
Actually they're trying to keep it fun. Pay to win servers are boring. It's fun for us because nearly everyone here has a donor rank. I join servers and can't compete with anyone because they have donor ranks so it's boring. They're trying to not make servers pay to win, and in turn making them fun.
What i have read so far is that they don't want servers to be making people pay for blocks that non-donors have to work hard for.
