The whole reason why I dont donate to servers. They don't use it for 'server items' I've met owners that have spent it on themselfs. One person I was helping to create a server for on the basis that he used 100% of donations on the server said to me that he 'brought GTA IV - Episodes from Liberty City' for himself. After a long rage he came up with the excuse 'We're extending to IV-MP I needed it for my copy.'. short tip for anyone who botherd to read this. NEVER Donate unless you know where the money is going. If possible donate directly to an account that can only be used for the server, Also another tip is to buy what they want and give them it.

I completely disagree with this, server donations are for the server only. I have terms and stages (had) sert up on my site. It then allowed them to donate with their account and remove the donation iff it wasn't used SO LONG AS they never brought VIP. This then allowed me to randomly divide the amopunt required from the donation pots and take equal amounts leaving donation pots for the donators. This system also told them that I used the money on this. I also posted proof of all donation usage on the website as I STRONGLY disagree with using server mobney for yourselfs!. Just for a notice to you all when my server shut down, I sent emails telling them to empty their donation pots and I never closed the site until most of it was gone!. I also still have notes on who needs what just incase that guy comes to me and wants that back.
