Can I charge for access to server commands? Yes, as long as their effects are purely cosmetic. Commands that affect gameplay, such as a command to fly, cannot be sold for hard currency. so basicly fly will be removed from the whole server. Crew and cyp will not give fly to every single player on the server. thats just how it is ^^
Not only fly, though. Every single command that donors have PAYED for, will be stripped away or turned public. (I.e. /jump /god /enchant /speed /spawn mob) These commands are what make people donate. Losing what you've payed for is going to suck. And I'd say it shouldn't be allowed, but I assume that something related to the terms and conditions and such of donating handles this- and prevents any of the current donors from doing anything about this. What crew and cyp could do, is make another server, and have it available to only those who donated- and in that server he could give everyone the commands we donated for.
A cool donation perk that WOULD be allowed by the EULA would be a server drop party Something like, pay __ then Cyp/Crew could host a drop party of equal quality to the donation - and give whoever donated guaranteed items, but nothing that couldn't be received from the drop party.. (I.e. Pay 100$ and they host a head drop party, and I participate in the drop while also receiving a head from cyp/crew) The only thing is, this would require a lot more activity from cyp/crew
actually you can buy ranks. ONLY if they can be earn't in game also. why not do like be on for a month and earn a rank ect and if you cant wait pay
but.. Can I sell ranks on my server? Yes. Ranks are allowed so long as any perks gained are cosmetic. Coloured names, prefixes, special hats etc. are fine.
A way around this might be to create two servers. Have one main server that everyone joins, players can then donate to gain access to another server, where these donors can all have the commands they should have, and because it will be only donors allowed on that server, all players on that server will have the same permissions. Maybe it only makes sense in my brain, but maybe this would create a solution.
It might work.. But all donors should have access to same commands/kits/features. Which means donor 10's have same permissions/features as donor 400.. EDIT' this will probably result in a lot of chargebacks..
Well, in the end, they most likely will not care anymore...... It's like those teachers that enforce something at beginning of the year, then forget about it towards the end.
Yes, but what's to stop there being multiple servers for different server ranks? This would then cause lots of limitations for things like chat, and visiting other islands.
Smart, but then Crew wouldn't get any new donors, as most non-donors would just join free Skyblock servers instead of paying to join one.
How should servers deal with users who have already spent hard currency on features that affect gameplay? Users may keep the perks they’ve paid for on the condition that the same perks are available to other players on the server (directly or purchasable using soft currency). It’s up to the server host to decide how to compensate users for previous transactions. Aw great... either everyone can get the same things as 400 donors, or they lose stuff, and it says nothing about required refunds. ;-;
This is a big game changer, though on the upside diamonds and iron will go through the roof (get stockpiling now). Plus, this amendment is across all servers, which means there are going to be big changes to how things play out generally. Who knows what will happen?
