    Wow, I understand taking Donations for items to help keep the server running, but those prices are insane lol.

    Who's paying $20 for 1 piece of armor for a game they could play for free? (Obviously some people are, but really?) Where do you people get this money that you can throw it away so freely. I am 24 and have a decent job so I know how hard it is to make a living.

    In no way is this a flame or insult to the donation system. I am just thinking, what if the person running the server gets bored or busy in Real Life and decided to shut it all down. Thousands of Dollars wasted? I've seen it happen in many other Private Servers (even spoke with a player who spend $1500 in a Lineage 2 Private server and it shut down 4 months after lol).

    I may end up donating because I do like this server, I just hope it stays around long enough for me to use the Items I donate for =P

    lol you'd be suprised, I know atleast two or three people who've donated over a thousand dollars. To gear one character in full abg+accs is $300 through donations.

    Donating 20$ each month was what I did and I've got my full set now (kay I still need one ring):p.
    Pretty stupid since it's a private server and it could be wiped anytime, but I did anyway.

    Lol I just don't get it =P. I could build a super computer for $1000+ or Buy a new 50" Flat Screen TV. My roommates bought a car for $1600 that is in great quality. What do you people do for a living? =P

    The purpose of donation is not to get good gear. If that were the case, this server would be sued by retail. ;)

    Let's just say the armor is just a Privilege to you, not a right.

    so true about that :3 i seen people sell craft items for credits :3 and they full abg also people that sell scrolls. You can be full abg equip just by investing a little time crafting or making things that people want.

    donations help make this server alive.. having items are just a plus for having to donate to the server.. its not actually the items that really matter, its helping out the server and the less fortunate ones that can't donate and doesnt have the privilege to play on retail due to lack of budget.

    well thats my point of view nothing against the t/s

    edit*

    bdw, i'm not a donator, but i do vote my ass off to make this server #1 on the listings, and to encourage other players to play on this server..

    but most of my toons are fully geared w/ ABG as well.. as a matter of fact i'm on my way to my third set of ABG, so even if your not a donator as long as you care for the server you would definitely get what you want, you just need to work your way to get it..
