Good idea chadz
I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

Well, I'm extremely hostile towards the idea of giving any kind of advantage in exchange for money, but I guess the randomness and the overall small effect mean it's not such a horror in this case. Once a week might be too much, though; those points will stack up over time and big donors will probably end up catching most of them.


Why not make it to where all donators have an equal chance? I mean.. we all contributed. Is it the amount that matters? Once a week would be fine, then.

Well, the reason why he did it this way is obvious enough, there's an incentive for people with plenty of money lying around to donate more than one euro. If it was a lottery for something irrelevant, just prestige stuff, then I wouldn't resent people who donated more having a better chance to win.
Don't.

Yeah, but I'm sure most people would donate anyway just to have the servers and to keep the mod alive. I think my idea is better than the idea that only benefits people who have donated 500+ euro....

regardless, even if the "reward" system doesn't work out,  when I get some extra cash i'll donate again. More working on the faction training servers first. :P

For all those complaining about not being able to easily and confidently donate to keep your major Crpg servers alive and  lag free, our master ATS webmasters are working on a site where NA players can go to donate confidently, see an updating list of donators, see a dynamic list of online admins, check out upcoming events, and much more exciting stuff. We are also upgrading servers, and will need the donations to keep afloat, so look forward to this in the coming weeks!

Be careful,  in canada the law generally states that donators cannot be compensated in any way, shape, or form unless endorsed by the federal government. Obviously canadian law does not have jurisdiction over mount and blade but other countries my have similar laws, just be careful!

I agree with Okin and a few others: the prizes should be more prestige like instead of hierlooms.
I would actually rather win a wierd hat or a "wave boss" name, than another hierloom.
