    Not sure if I missed something or not so I will ask the question.

    I recently made some donations for myself and some donations in the way of giftcards and features for other members, yet I have not recieved my donation medal for $600+. I am wondering if it is because when I made the donations for others I put their in-game name in and only mentioned my name in the comments section of the pay-pal purchase screen. Is this the correct way to do it? Or, do we not get the medal if we are donating for someone else?

    You do not receive medals for donating towards other users. Only when it is towards yourself.

    OK, so how on earth would you aceive the $2500??

    To buy everything, excluding the 75 mcmmo bonus and obviously ECO $$'s the total amounts to $1190. That is one hell of an amount of $$'s or McMMO bonuses you would need to buy to equate to that.

    And even though I am the one making the donation, there is no recognition for that? Regardless of who I purchased the donation for, it was my actuall dollars that went towards the server.

    Just my thoughts :confused:

    Thanks for the info Andrew. I don't mind donating to the server at all and this is in no way a negative post as I enjoy the server and I know what it costs to maintain at the standards you run it at.

    Now I could start a massive argument that people who buy donation features with ECO dollars through people like myself who have the ability to pay in real dollars should not be entitled to the donation status as they did not physically donate to the server, but in a round-about way they did, and should be entitled to the donator features.

    If the user who paid ECO dollars for the features and were simply listed as Donators to acheive the perks, then to me the donator medal should still go to the person who placed the donation in the first place. I know, impossible to do now as the server has been running for so long that several players would be affected.

    I think with all the "donation scamming" going on though, if there was some way of recognising those who have actually made "real $$ donations" was visible then if players were unsure before agreeing to the trade they would be able to check. Presently, you can go to a user and see the donation medals and feel safe but this is really a false state as that player may have brought those features with ECO $$ and then things go pear shaped and they need ECO $$'s for what ever reason and end up scamming others to get it. Then comes the Ban and the disgruntled player who lost their hard earned ECO $$'s etc. (over the last almost 2 years I have seen it on numerous occassions) so if there was a way to distinguish those "donators" apart it may lead to less "scamming" going on.

    Besides, I love the look of the medals next to my name :p

    Then why did you start one? The second post you made on this thread you throw an insult at a user while tagging him to make sure he saw it. Then go on to throw two more at him later on. This is not allowed and unacceptable. You will receive a forum warning and I have the thread watched to make sure this doesn't keep happening.

    You received your third active forum warning with the one I gave you here. The forums auto temp banned you at that point.
