Dodo Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I 100% stand by my gold statue of Sand idea Looking forward to seeing how this plays out! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yggdrasil Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Don't like the extra droprate boost. Imo, does breach the p2w line by giving you a better chance at drops once you've hit a certain donation threshhold. 1 Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make it so we can give Sand a hug and it sets off fireworks or something. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I think that this is a very good idea to implement as it would give more incentive to bring in money for the server, which is more motivation to keep it running with consistent updates and new content. Obviously donating should never feel like a requirement though, so nothing should scream "p2w" even though its a significant achievement or amount donated. Basically improving the qol for high donators. I would also be very please to see a custom title option brought back even if it comes with a restriction like that, I was upset to see it leave in the first place. As for the donation shop at the location, here are a few of my ideas: https://runescape.wiki/w/Balloon_goat https://runescape.wiki/w/Balloon_sheep https://runescape.wiki/w/Balloon_cat https://runescape.wiki/w/Balloon_dog https://runescape.wiki/w/Golden_Gnome https://runescape.wiki/w/Golden_gnome_hat these are just examples and would just be ways to display your dedication/loyalty to the server. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter Revel Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 If he adds custom titles, they should cost $50-100, but should be a permanent unlock so just typing something like ;;customtitle would let you use it again. Gold Statue of Sand sounds fine. If someone donated $250, or better yet earned $250 worth of in-game bonds, I don't think 1% drop rate is killing anything. Also it would be another one of those things to add to the checklist of things to do before you actually start pvming, so people will probably forget to use it anyways lmfao. Love the Archeology Ideas, that's ideal. Seren Stones would be nice. Disagree with the fishing swarms, since they can be a social spot, and wouldn't want to see those pushed into ;;DDZ. No one chills talking at Screening station in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadiez Posted February 14, 2021 Author Share Posted February 14, 2021 Discussion about the shop, to have a shop at each zone. But each zone have more items the higher they go. eg: ;;dz has 5 items, ;;ddz has 10 ;;odz has 15 This will give the opportunity for everyone to get something and reduce the p2w feeling. Rather than having one 1 Donation shop at the ;;odz Again the items that the shop should have, has to be untradeable so they can't be used as a money making method. Eg cosmetic. 2 Spoiler Top notch mod response Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ineedliqour2 Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 As a onyx I think there should be a zone I strongly agree with this and certain cosmetics that you can only get as onyx+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mean Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 I'm hoping the revival of this discussion causes the onyx+ zone to come to fruition. I always appreciate keeping p2w out of the realm of possibility, thanks for that. I think all of your proposed ideas are great -- especially the donation shop cosmetics, if each zone (;;dz, ;;ddz, ;;odz) had some unique aspect that increased desire for players to donate, than that is all the better. Swarm fishing seems unnecessary -- having it doesn't impart any extra benefit as you don't bank when swarm fishing. Maybe a sailfish spot instead? (Being a few steps closer to bank than a regular spot isn't p2w in my book) I like the statue idea -- but maybe the dr% could be a more trivial amount, like 0.01% -- Honestly I think a statue would be a cool thing for the home area w/ the 1% boost. I would like there to be an arch soil screening station as well -- I still have a bunch of soil from pre-auto screener grind ya knowww. Putting the Red sandstone/crystal-flecked sandstone in here, with the same daily limitations, could also be great. (Again, just saves a couple of steps.) Personally, anything that saves me some steps or clicks, is worth donating for. Pay-to-save-my-tired-hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
