    ShadowXCraft Factions 2.0 Donor System and Ideas:

    Ok to start off i apsolutely loved the Normal Factions on ShadowXCraft but its gotten a bit Dull and needs to be refreshed... Especially for Donators (Which this Post is all about!)


    Donor Rank Ideas:


    1: Donators need to feel like they Donated for something useful in a way that can help them complete a task or event quicker (but not too much quicker) than others.

    2: Donors need the right Commands to use in chat, Such as /invsee, /fix all (Mind that the fix command must be limited for separate Donator ranks).

    3: Something Donors really like To have is Chat customization's,     &a&b&c&d&e&f&1&2&3&4&5&6&7&8&9&k&r&l&m&n&o (Click Here for a complete list) and i think there may be a few more... Anyway, each donator level can get different Chat customization's based on which looks better or whatever The staff decides.

    4: Items... Donators need Items that Default Players are ABLE to get but are harder for them to get. (1 thing i need to mention is that Donators CANNOT and i mean CANNOT get Enchantments over the Normal limit... this just ruins pvp and the Economy in many ways).


    Donor Permissions Ideas:

    1: The ability to Create Signs for Disposal of items, Or maybe others i cant really remember which other ones there is at the moment but its just a idea...

    2: Allow them to use Color Codes on Signs which I'm pretty sure is in the same section as the permissions for Chat Color Codes.

    3: I think 1 thing that would REALLY make factions more lovable by Donators, is if you can use /nick, WITH limitations such as no &k or &o or something... Up to the staff

    4: Another idea that would take a VERY long time to setup and might not be Right for ShadowXCraft is Creative with CreativeControl, Which means players with a high enough rank would be able to go into creative with limitations (HUGE limitations which would make this Idea a long ways away)

    5: Theirs 1 command that would be harder to work with in which how the factions server is setup, the /spawner command, Alot of people like this command and its very useful, the /spawner command would only work if you have found a Monster Spawner, Or if you have a spawner... which (another idea) can be gotten in Voting? maybe...

    6: Prefix's there is a Prefix Plugin out there somewhere that allows the use of /spr p (prefix) that will change what Prefix (The writing before your name) you have and there is also other things in the plugin i myself havent messed with yet.

    Please let me know if i missed anything in the comments, just reply if i missed anything and ill be sure to add it either in a new thread or in a different post on this 1, soon i will be making a new Thread for permissions and Commands and such for Default players. Thanks for reading please read the Poll above

    Invsee cant be abused? its used to Check other inventorys before battle or just to see what someone has.... there isnt anything overpowered with it... ive used it for a long time on Cosmic Craft and on ShadowXCraft, also /nick can be abused but in my opinion its the victim thats really at fault because they need to pay more attention to who they are teleporting or what they are doing

    With invsee it is actually possible to modify inventory depending on perms.

    Well, the main reason is due to the definition of "Donate: Verb.. To present as a gift, grant or contribution of." with a legal aspect of giving without any return considerations, which means that it's an act of giving without expecting anything in return and both parties has to accept before the transaction occurs.

    This is the main reason why when someone with a rank so called "Donor rank" uses the rank for an advantage the non-donors have, I no longer call them "Donors Rank", but "Paid Rank".

    An example of this is I currently I do not call the "Donor Rank" in factions "Donors" since some of them will spawn items freely that are not 1: Craftable and 2: Non-Purchasable in the shop for the regular users. I will continue calling them "Paid Rankers" at least until 1: The items that they spawn are no longer free and has a super high price (2M+), 2: items gain a small fee and can be crafted by regular users or that they can buy it for an expensive price or 3: the items no longer exist.

    That being said, I strongly agree with CrazyWafflz #4, but I also agree on #1 that Donators can still be given an advantage to allow them to do tasks faster, but the advantage should not be OP and should not give too much advantage in PVP either (some of the paid rank has too much advantage in both KitPVP and Factions at the moment, hence I do not call them "Donors").

    I do agree on #3 as well, but if implemented, it would have to also be available to regular players if they 1: Donate a certain amount that is less than the cost of the first donor rank or 2: that they have to either complete certain tasks and pay a certain amount of votes or in-game cash.

    For #2, I do not agree on the command choice Crazy chose as seeing another person inventory is like having the ultimate intel on the enemy, hence in war, everyone look for intelligence on their enemies to strike at the right time, I'd rather have it so we all tries to learn our enemies instead, and /fix is way too abusable, it would have to be accessible for all in shop for a fee to render it balanced.

    I do like the other ideas Crazy had, but with a few changed, Perm #1,2,3,5 and 6 would have to follow the same thing as I had for rank #3, except Perm #3 would also require you to ask a staff for the change to occur.
    I'm not sure what Perm #4 does, so I have no opinion on that.

    Edit: reading the poll.. I cannot choose either of the options, my option would be "Yes, but with some changes/exceptions"

    Well, that not what donors should expect at all, at that point, it's no longer "Donating" to the server, but "Buying" perms.
    Also, everyone wants to be more OP, it's called "Greed", we should all begin with the same or similar items and practice tactics until we feel comfortable and powerful with one instead.
