I could totally be overlooking something, but I noticed that with the donor packages, it says expires in 3 months.
Is this normal? I thought donors last until a server reset? Do all perks you get from donating just disappear after 3 months? I'm looking to donate but that's a little disheartening.. Can anyone clear this up for me?

Thanks,

This is correct. The new donor packages will expire in 3 months. More perks are to be added to the groups as well. Some perks don't expire such as the towny plots and the in game money you receive.

The sad truth is we dont get enough donations from players to have permanent perks anymore. The staff have been footing the bill and we can no longer support the server ourselves. To try to some help from the players we have created cheaper but temporary donation packages. This should hopefully encourage some more smaller donation packages being purchased.

Something that will be added to the donor packages are spawners. Now buying temporary packages will give you a spawner (to keep) depending on the level you donate for.

The packages are a work in progress.

Reminder donating $25 before December 1st puts you in a drawing for a Galaxy Tab 3 Lite ($175 value).

Understood, makes a lot of sense. I'm going to donate 40, what spawner comes with that?

A single $40 spawner. But I can give you two $20 spawners if you wanted.

Edit: It's actually supposed to be a $10 spawner and a $20 spawner but since you brought this up I will give a $40 one this one time.

do different spawners cost different ammounts? like skeleton spawners cheaper than horse spawners?

Alright if you're not on, how does getting the spawner work? Is it just a block give to you?
The admin or a vet mod has to place it otherwise it will always place as a pig or skeleton cant remember.

Hey Tercept, do slime spawners still need to be put in a slime chunk, or no?

Maybe it would be handy to have the donation packages completely worked out before the 1st of december, so more people can choose wisely what and how much to donate.

I like how a premium account can be bought for a certain amount of time. This could go with special premium members only quests, just an idea ;)
