EULA Server Change by OmniDom August 1, 2014 at 1:08 AM UTC

So many rumors have been going around about a change in the donor perks, or user benefits changing.
I'm sure many others are wondering what is really happening, I have no clue, but if someone with authority, or insight could tell us whats happening on the first of august (tomorrow)that would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Dom

Yeah, I'm pretty curious, too..
I guess we'll just have to wait and see :3

Shoto_ August 1, 2014 at 2:08 AM UTC

There's going to be a change in donator perks, not sure what else though. We'll have to wait and see.

August 1st :o

No exp boost and no donor kits. For this server, that's pretty much it. Also I think you can't join full games. Not sure about that one.

OmniDom August 1, 2014 at 4:08 AM UTC

the suspense builds....

The only way that would affect gameplay is team-stacking. But then again, I could be wrong :P

Phobiaxx August 1, 2014 at 4:08 AM UTC

I hope our player count doesn't decrease :c

So what would donors get back?
Let's say it was august 1st, would I get $100 back? Or what?

I doubt,

dont get too heated however, the replacement will be sweet.  

If replacement there is!

Shoto_ August 1, 2014 at 6:08 AM UTC

There is a replacement, just not sure what it'll be. Right now, it's August 1st in Sweden.

Awarrior August 1, 2014 at 6:08 AM UTC

August 1st in Canada!

Yep, 2 hours in August 1st here, too.

Only thing that may change is the kits as they are not cosmetic changes.

Arachadonic August 1, 2014 at 10:08 AM UTC

I would like to know to be honest and I feel like we deserve to know since it was our money we spent. Don't get me wrong I don't want a refund but I would like to know what is being done about it.

Your rank will be purely for aesthetics and fun, anything that gives a donator an advantage etc. premium kits or xp boosts in a kitted minigame (nebula may still have xp boost because it has no kits)
so all the gameplay changing aspects will be removed, they may be replaced with trails, pets or hats in the lobby.

Not necessarily.. If they let non-donors get the kits/exp boost but make it really hard then we can keep what we paid for.

Also no offense but I was really hoping for an official response from one of the Directors/Managers.

That's fine,
and they won't give non donors the xp boosts (possibly access to the kits though) but If they make it really hard for non donors it would count as a gameplay altering advantage so.. :/

Hypixel did it with their coin boosts that donors get and Mojang said it was okay.

Exactly, you would think they know a little more than us and would want to share their knowledge..........

The xp boost must go as it directly affects gameplay (pretty sure Mojang mentioned donator multipliers in one of their statements). It allows donators to unlock kits faster. The donator kits obviously will have to be dropped. I think Avicus will be relatively untouched, so yay. Just worried about other servers.

 I hope they just make it so all the kits are free, but make pyro, assassin and freezer at higher  lvls and maybe douse pyro a bit (pun intended)

Compared to a lot of other servers, we are barely affected by this. Don't worry.

I suppose you are right.

Sidenote: When did you resign Peachy?

keenanjt August 1, 2014 at 6:08 PM UTC

We'll be making changes as stated before. It's not known when or what will be changing but we must be in accordance with the rules Mojang sets in place. We'll do whatever we can to keep everyone happy. A more official announcement will come soon and changes will come later this month or early next month.

Phobiaxx August 1, 2014 at 6:08 PM UTC

@ivy :o i thought the deadline was aug 1st

Joining full games is allowed according to EULA

A few hours ago.

Arachadonic August 1, 2014 at 7:08 PM UTC

A few hours ago.
How come?
Sorry to go off-topic just seems random and is very surprising!

AtditC August 1, 2014 at 9:08 PM UTC
