O Hai-

-Lately so many threads have been filled with people asking for Donor Privileges to be removed or changed. Please, read this before you post an angry thread complaining about how you've been kicked 100 times today.

-Why Donors are important:
Donors are one of MCSG's sources of income. Unless you've been living under a rock, you've had to buy something. You get the idea, Most things aren't free, and the MCSG servers and Website is definitely not free. They might be free to you, but they aren't free to Chad. I can only assume they are incredibly expensive, taking into consideration that they run 24/7 and there are hundreds of servers. Theoretically, (Not the raccoon xD) Donors keep the servers alive, because without money, there would be no forums or servers, and the result would be an apocalypse. Only YOUR money can prevent apocalypses.
-Why donors get the privileges they do:
Let's role-play. Your a perspective Donator, and your researching the perks you'll receive for donating. You find out your only perks are a Beautifurr name (Beautifurr: Copyright Cheezorony :D) and 200 points. You decide it isn't worth it, and spend your money on a 8-foot Sock-Monkey. No. Just no. Nobody wants to do that. Back up, to the perks. Now let's say the perks are a sexy name, 200 points... BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE! You'll also get a Vip-esque status throughout the servers, joining any server anytime you want (Unless of course there's a Donor/Mod party on that server that you weren't invited to.) Now would you want to donate? I think so. Point proven? No? *Sigh* Basically, what I'm trying to say is D-O-N-A-T-E. What's that? Your Mum won't let you? Please, just take it out on her, not the community. (Duck does not take responsibility for OR promote violence) I'm sure you and your sock-monkey will be great friends.
-Why "REMOVE DONOR PRIVILEGE" threads are pointless-
It's never going to happen. I know it sucks, being a non-donor on a US server is like putting a giant "Kick-me" sign on your back, but you can't do anything about it. Donate or don't. You can continue to make threads like those, get donor privileges removed, and lose the servers. Then you won't have to worry about being kicked, although I think plenty of the people would kick you in the a** for it.
Final Conclusion:
STAHP IT! It's useless. I respect your opinions, I just don't agree with them :3.
------------
Hurr, Hurr, Hurr, Rainbow text. If you read all of this, I <3 you. Writing this was actually fun and hopefully will change some things that I think have been bothering us all. Let me know what you thought of this :3.
*By the way, You might have seen this is General Support. I'm deciding where it belongs and removing the other once i find out :)

I remember on a livestream a long time ago, chad said something about the servers costing 1$ per player slot monthly. At the time, there were 2000 slots. Therefore, the servers cost 2000$ a month. Much more than that now though. Donors are very important :]

Donator Privileges are not going to be removed, we give you these privileges because it is a thank you for helping out the servers. The last thing we are going to do it remove them because there are to many donators because in a way, it is a really good thing. When too many people are donators then we need more servers, more servers means expanding our number of server's so the community grows as a consequence the influx in donators are a really good thing, not a bad thing.

I'm getting kicked right now as a mod, because I don't have the rank in game yet :p
But all of these are valid points.
