    Yes, but my point is that it costs donors absolutely nothing to make a huge farm, because as you've said, they get more items in their kits, which could be put into a large farm for no extra cost at all. Whereas newer players need grass/diamonds to create large enough farms to sustain such a basic income, which they do not have. And because starter islands don't provide players with enough resources to a point where 5 stacks of an item for a piece of grass is a realistic price.

    But this isn't the goal or essence of the survival server. This is literally what economy is, and it is literally why no one plays. If people wanted something like this, they could go or economy. No one goes to economy, because that type of server shop has been proven to not work.
    That may be true, but that won't be changing the server's player base exponentially, and the possibility in causing further inflation and problems in the economy could possibly even lead other, donating, players to leave the server.

    Gold nuggets and grass are easily sold for diamonds to players. Generally accepted currency of any kind (gold, grass, iron, diamonds, etc) entering the economy in new ways like this leads to inflation.

    I already rated no support.

    Sorry I'm using Tapatalk so I don't see rating until I go to my pc,
    Donors wouldn't make much money out of this though because of how little it pays out,
    However this would help greenies and players who just joined to get a small amount of money that they could spend on other things.

    They still make more money than non-donors from this, which was my point. Most donors don't do anything with the sand in their kits, and most donors have a lot of spare grass that can be contributed to farms, which non-donors do not have access to. It costs donors absolutely nothing to make a farm that could easily be 10x bigger than a non-donor's farm. Cactus, sugar cane, and many other plants can easily be AFK farmed, meaning it won't use up a donor's time, resources, or effort. There would still be a larger profit margin for donors than for non-donors.
    Non-donors simply don't have the resources to use this as a sustainable income, especially due to the potential inflation this could cause.

    Donors do have the advantage yes, however we are "donors" short for donators, people who have supported the server by giving money. By donating we get perks such as kits being able to teleport so it's only fair that donors get an advantage over greenies, also afk farming things can be done by donor and non donor because red stone is pretty cheap and there are tons of tutorial on YouTube.

    That's actually not true. Donator isn't an actual term and is rarely used. It started off as legal jargon, but is almost never used in day to day speech.
    You just stated my point. Donors having an advantage completely negates your argument and suggestion. Everything, including farming, is made easier for donors.

    It is made easier yes, because we have donated we have perks, but this being implemented would help greenies and players starting out more because then they would actually have a form of income whereas donors, of course they can do farm and his little income if they want, but for most that wouldn't be the preferred way of making money.

    I support this, if the warp were only available for non-donors. My only concern is that many donors have massive farms of these farmable items, and if this said non-donor knew about the island, they could potentially get "rich".

    Players wouldn't be able to get "rich" with this,
    Or at least with my definition of rich being having over about 50 diamonds when your a greenie.
    This shop wouldn't pay out much and it would just provide a stable source of income to new/poorer players.
    Also it wouldn't really be practical for it to be non donor only because then people wouldn't want to donate because it would eliminate their main source of income on the server and also people donate for more perks not less xD and people do have Alts so almost anyone would be able to bypass that.
    Thx for supporting!

    Yes this could be great idea because it can help greenies. First thing is why shouldnt donors be able to visit that warp? There then would be no need to rank yourself up because you could not use that warp. Next thing it could only buy nether wart potato carrot and wheat because these are only one that need to be replaced in farmlands. And last i personaly thing that it would increase cost of other rarer items by a lot.

    Payment suggestion:
    Every farmed inventory pays 1 nugget to 1 grass?

    Reason: Donors like me will start building massive farms that can produce 1 inventory of farmed items in a few seconds
