    Suggestion: I am suggesting official server donation feature transfers between accounts. This could be done by an application.

    Reason: Well I think it would be neat to do this and could maybe cost a fee, thus taking money out of the economy. And it could provide easier donation feature purchasing for those who cannot.

    Any Other Information: Not even sure if this is possible, but since you can take out features, I assume you can also add some manually.

    I think this is an awesome idea. And your justification of it taking money out of the economy is a good idea. Some people may get features they purchased but do not like them afterwards, and this will benefit them by getting some kind of benefit from them by selling them for EcoDollars to other users. This will of course keep those people, or a feature seller from spending more money but it is something that will please the players, and a game that keeps the players happy I've seen keeps more players playing. If more players are happy this will make them play longer, and make them want to spend more money or be a first time spender! Also, this could keep the players that sell the features through "trading them" to use even more EcoDollars to buy another feature, and this will stimulate more money being spent. I endorse this idea and think it should be looked over by Physicistsmom.

    I know you have good intentions but I do not believe this to be an ethical idea.
    What stops those uses that quit from passing on their donations (hundreds of dollars worth) to a friend?
    What stops users from transferring their features to an alternative account or something along those lines?

    This could potentially cut down the amount of donations that the server receives to run. What stops people just passing their donations down a hierarchy so that other don't need to physically donate for features.
    Horrible idea in my opinion.

    I would also like to bring up the question of would people lose donation medals if they give away there donations?

    Say someone who has donated $70 and then gives away a $50 feature, will they lose a $ for there trouble?

    There are a few pros of this ideas but i think there are alot more questions and problems then answers unfortunately.

    -1 as well
    This will cut the amount of donations people will by. Just recently we had a falling out of many vip doners thousands of dollars could have been lost because of this system. It's best to keep the system the way it's set up now.

    May I ask what your opinions are? To me, saying "+1" or "-1" is merely a post count increase...

    Tbh, it's not worth it. People will quit, giveaway their features.. I have about $7,000,000 in donation features at 7k/usd. Now I go sell those for $5,000,000 wrecking the donation market because of features that have been already payed for but are not bringing in more money because they are being given away.

    This would be more of a problem than a solution. The server runs because of people donating to get the features they want. If this suggestion was accepted then current active players could get some friends that used to play and donated to give them their features. Because of this, the current users wouldn't have to donate to get the features they want. Of course there are some positives too, but I think this would harm the server and make it less successful in the long-term.

    -1 because I do not think there could be an easy way to mediating the trade. I could see a lot of banned users giving away their features or some other transactions that wouldn't be safe. It's a great idea, just would cause more harm than good.

    -1,
    I'm sorry, but this is a generally bad idea. This could cause a lot of problems along the way, and could get out of control. Banned users could transfer features to alternate accounts for personal advantage. In all seriousness, I see a lot of things that could go wrong here.
